Starting One's Own Web Site Hosting Business:

Before starting a web site hosting business, go through the pros and cons carefully and in doing so, few of these points can get anyone off to a good start:

• The initial investment will be the cost of the server, cost of added control panel, cost of advertisement and sales promotion activities and cost of support services. But one has to take into account the fact that when they are just starting the web hosting business the server will be empty. That means in the beginning one will have to personally bear the costs for server plus control panel.
• If anyone plans to resell someone else's services, then customer service and technical support are far more important than the price. The performance of the company resold will however be directly reflected on the judgements that govern it. Reselling others’ services is fine for some time, but they have their downtime and other problems as they operate on thin margins as well.
• If one decides to lease a dedicated server then they can seek quotes from companies such as Rackshack.net, Eservers.biz, Rackspace.com, Cyberworldservers.com and few others. Each of these companies will allow the would be owner to lease a server on their connection, allot a specified amount of bandwidth, and permit them to host their clients' websites on that server.
