As an amateur web developer I did not neccessarily need professional level hosting services, but was attracted to Aussie Bob's first company by the chance to host multiple domains on one account. At the time, it was a huge innovation. Not only that, his prices were much better than less flexible hosts.

I was intrigued by Bob's personal story of building a new business from scratch and his devotion to his family, and I watched him proceed to seemingly be awake 24 hours a day answering support questions. I predicted to him he would be a big success and I am happy for him that his hard work and vision made it come true.

He clealry raised expectations for webhosting customer support industry-wide. And he taught me the value of using lots of smileys! :p

In the meantime, the community he created and fostered at HttpMe taught me enough to now be able to tinker with Apache (solely for fun, not for production purposes) on my own machine.

When I accidentally stumbled across the fact that Aussie Bob was starting Dotable.com, I grabbed my CC and opened an account that night. I wanted *that much* not only to be part of his next success story, but to watch and learn from him doing it again.

As an entrepreneur, his fanatical customer service inspires me in my own business.

Going with Aussie Bob has simply been the best online purchasing decision I have ever made.
