I don't know how to word this one, but this is aimed to current software developers.
I've got a few public open source projects, some being windows ports of linux software, although I can't discuss my real name here, my software is used by a small portion of people, roughly 5-10 per week. (not much people, but it's ok)
I'm moving to personal projects that will be completely closed source, I know it's bad, but It's mostly to for fill a need, and It's going to be shareware, I'm considering doing this to make enough money as a side job.
Anyways, I'm just trying to work out how to set lay this out in my head.
now lets say my personal site is (First Name Last Name.com), and my software development site is, Lastname.org, is this an okay way of setting this up.
Lets say you will have your file downloads as a folder, such as ftp.lastname.org, while the support forums will be forums.lastname.org, and the site itself will be a wordpress site, at last name.org, instead of a private repo I'm just going to use a local repo stored on a google drive share.
Is this okay thinking? I'm going to ditch my open source projects to focus on shareware development. I'll still release open source software ofc. My shareware will pretty much be able to install on any pc you own, no stupid licencing limits or whatever, but like many software serial numbers will get blacklisted, in the next version.
