Other Information You May Wanna Know...
Where did the name come from?
Vanilla Bean was actually pretty random and spur of the moment! I just saw it somewhere and thought "Hmmm I like that for a site name." and I've stuck with it since then. I don't know why, but I've always like it, I guess. I've even developed a lot of shorter nicknames for it throughout the couple years that I've had the site like vb, vblyts, vtotheb etc.
How/Where did you learn all this?
Everything I know about websites, coding, and photoshop I learned ALL BY MYSELF! It's not as hard as you think it is - you can find tutorials all over the web that will teach you everything you need to know. Be patient though, it will take time to get as good at it as I am. I have been learning photoshop and all this for three years and I've only had my domain for one. So it does take time, but you can do it if you really set your mind to it.
How many hits/visitors do you get daily?
I usually get 1000-2000 daily, depending on the day. I know, it's not a lot but it's improving everyday so hopefully someday I will have 10 times that!
Where can I host/buy my domain?
I'm not sure where I bought mine (Somebody else pays for my domain), but I believe I got it at Godaddy.com.
Do you need a partner/co-owner?
Sorry guys, but no I don't! I've owned this site mostly on my own, and I'm not looking for any help. If I ever do I'll be sure to let you guys know. :)
