    The first one in my signature is the first and only one I've created myself.

    I setup my very first site last summer - it was a site providing online guitar lessons. Really should update it now I think about it! :)

    Haha, I was like 12 years old, and made a Warcraft website.
    It got over a million hits over five years, when I finally checked up on it.

    It was an ugly microsoft frontpage website!
    If only I knew then what I know now about advertising and affiliate programs!
    I can't get that many hits even now!

    The competition in the webmaster market is so much more difficult nowadays.

    I made my first 'site' when I was 13 or so, and hosted it on HotBot (that one's loooong gone by now)...

    The first site I built and put onto my own domain was oweb.co.uk (Not the current design I can assure you)...

    The wayback machine will forever act as a form of embarrasment for me. :|

    Oh it's sooooooo bad...
