Well, give us an inside peek at your day-to-day online existence as you build or run your online business.
We’re wondering about what the average e-commerce pro is up to on the Web each day. What chores take up the bulk of your time? Are you spending more hours running your business, or promoting it?
Please take a moment to share your answers to these five quick questions in our not-terribly-scientific survey:
1. How many hours do you spend online each day?
2. What are the tasks that occupy most of your time online each day (emailing, researching, working on your website, news reading, talking to customers, eBay selling, blogging, Twittering, instant messaging, etc.)? About how many hours a day or week do you spend on each task?
3. Are you active on social media websites (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, etc.)? Which ones take up most of your “social” time?
4. Are you spending more time online simply running your business, or marketing it?
5. Do you wish you were using your time online differently? What tasks would you like to spend less time on — and what do you wish you were doing more often?

Hi I spend 6-8 hours per day online on a good day mainly on Research, SEO, Keeping up to date on blogs and forums not very active on social media websites but i’d like to be. Mainly spend my time marketing and research, I’d like to do more web site creation.
While working a 9-5 and trying to spend quality time with my family I manage to squeeze in at least 5 hours per day online.
Most of that time is spent working on my online business. Keyword research, PPC, SEO, Twitter, YouTube, article and writing.
I spend most of my time marketing and maintaining the site. I wish I had more time to just market and not have to worry about the site as much.

I’ve not to long started out online, im currently producing my own product and doing some affiliate marketing, my aim is to earn exactly $1000 a day from exactly 500 websites/blog, i have a large strategy that involves, web 2.0, blogging, articles, wordpress, youtube, adwords, adsense, affiliate products, seasonal shopping sprees and eventually they will end up at membership sites. the goal is to have each site making me $2 a day.
I will be outsourcing the websites as it’s time consuming although i can build 1 website fully in exactly 1 hour. including autoresponder config etc.
Thanks everyone for sharing thier plans. my plan of $2 is a 1 year plan.
to add to the other answers, i spend approx 9hrs on line but can be more sometimes, i use twitter and stuff but that does not consume my time, i work eqully at growing the business as marketing it, but would like more help with good traffic and getting people that are really interested in what im doing back to my website
