Tinkering on her PC in Australia about 9 years ago, Amy met the owners of Lunarpages.com on their forums when they were offering free web hosting and had only 2 servers. After deciding she wanted to build a web site, Amy started asking questions and making friends and eventually began helping other members of the Lunarpages community. Shortly thereafter, the owners of Lunarpages approached her to administrate and run their online forums.
She recruited several customers to assist her in moderating the forums, and after 2 years the CEO of Lunarpages asked her to create a remote support department. Amy managed Lunarpages remote services with 45 contractors working under her (including the moderators from the forums) from her home base in Australia until 2005. After various trips to California to meet with the rest of the LP team, they convinced her to relocate to California where she now lives, heading up their Business Development & Marketing Department. Today, Lunarpages hosts more than 220,000 domain names and 160,000 customers and run 4000+ servers from four major data centers in California, USA. Amy is a regular contributor to various web hosting magazines including PingZine.com and she speaks at web hosting and web master conferences regularly, because she really does love to talk about web hosting and affiliate marketing! Her specialty is communication, social marketing, affiliate marketing, SEO, and branding. Since taking over the Lunarpages Affiliate program she has increased the company's internal affiliate base to over 90,000 and this program is responsible for more than 80% of Lunarpages' daily sales. If anyone knows web hosting, it's Amy.
