I am always thinking about if I want to become a webmaster as a my career. I have written reasons why anyone would want to become a webmaster. I think it’s a really good career, just hard to make a living off of. I think that starting early will give me a great advantage though. 
Anyways, here is my list:
- You get to write a lot. I personally love to write, and when you write a lot you improve your writing skills.
- You get to be your own boss. Nothing is better than not listening to anyone.
- You do many different things. You never know what you have to do. Doing many different things is keeps it fresh.
- Let it sit. Some types of websites do the work for you.
- Work your own hours. Not many jobs are as flexible as being a webmaster. At the beginning you are usually going to have to work a lot though.
- Create websites/blogs about anything. Have a passion? Create a blog or website about it.
- Get feedback. Great comments and emails make you feel good.
- Have something that’s yours. Your website is owned by you, and that is a great feeling.
- Make it look however you want. You get to show your creative side, and you feel pride when your site looks good.
- Help people. Most websites offer content of services that help people. To me, this is one of the biggest parts of being a webmaster.
Why do you like being a webmaster? Please comment.

I agree with you on many points
But i preferred to be called a web developer rather than a webmaster :p Although I do own a forum called webmasterpeers.com haha
Yes indeed I strongly suport the above comments.
You get a lot of freedom to work, only if you are a succesful webmaster
My suggestion is, the journey and enthusiasam of learning must never stop
Yeah, that’s the thing. You are your own boss. And if you have a tech/software review site, you get complimentary licenses of software from developers for free!

I only read two of your post and I was amaze how good your article is. Very substantial. For me, one of the things I like being a webmaster is being my own boss and freedom.
I definitely agree with you on a lot of these points. I just think that nothing beats that feeling of creating your first website though. You’re eager to get started and dominate, and even thought you are inexperienced – you will never feel the same way about a website like you did your first. That’s my favorite part about being a webmaster.
