Back in the old days of this Forum....

[ITContractor]

"He rebuilt the CC.net site for me for £200 and hosts it for £270 quid a year "

He definitely charges far too little. Did my website for £100!! (mates rate).
But as he always says - its the hosting he's after.

He says he hosts more than 100 Forums alone so he can't be doing all thath bad. Just those sites with Forums would bring him in more than £20 grand a year alone. I wanted some changes done to the site a few months back and he said he couldn't do any more development work till next year so he must be fairly busy with that too.

I suppose if you do othe development cheaply then you are building up recurring business from the hosting.

What did Lindsay used to do before. Was he a contractor?
