I’m back. I mean, this time really…… I’m BACK!!!! LET’S GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m getting a handle on all of my sites due to the upcoming launch of Mysterypackhq.com. The site is my own brainchild from years of collecting baseball cards. I finally stared at the ‘community’ aspect of what I see online, and decided it was time for someone to step in and help. I work with homeless for my occupation, and funny how this is turning out to be something similar! Just think of all the “Mystery Pack” sellers on eBay – kids most of them I would think….. having to share some crazy long number and not really have an identity. I aim to change that for anybody willing to give this a chance.
I ran my own site for years and during the most amazing period in the history of the computer…. the period between 1996 and 2003 – I call those “The Emulation Years.” My old site was EmuHQ.com, while the domain ended up changing hands a few times, I retain EmuHQ.net. So, it’s still mine. Whoever bought that domain years ago did nothing with it, and their own ideas failed.
EmuHQ had around 2,000,000 visitors a month, and total respect by our peers. I’d drop names, but meh. Aaron Giles, main dev on MAME and uber-famous in the coding world due to virtualization becoming defacto basically for all of IT. He was behind XP Mode in Windows 10. Yep. He had us linked #1 on his links page for news sites. I was so proud of that…. what an honor.
When it comes to selling cards online, social media sites, eBay – not exactly the best way to run a business, even for a kid – not in my opinion. I’m going to offer them a chance to have a ‘perk’ of having their various projects, stuff for sale wherever – posted not only on their own PAGE but I will post news on my front page to promote it, and include a rotating banner with all of the people who have PAGES on my site to help promote eachother. It is a powerful and untapped resource and it’s time I unleash it.
For now, Mysterypackhq.com is in WIP mode. You can take a look though by clicking here.
