    Starting a webhosting business?

    How would you go about starting your own webhosting biz?
    Not reselling , but buying your own servers and stuff?


    Where can you go to get some info on that?

      Not too hard, you just have to figure out cost of server + bandwith bill then rent them for more then it costs you.

      You'll need some working capitol to get started (Buy a few servers and bandwith upfront)

      +

      You'll need to be able to pay your bandwith bill for a few months if a few clients decided not to pay you.

                                  The first thing is to not talk to anyone GFY about it,

                                  Head over to http://www.webhostingtalk.com

                                  Your biggest challenge will be to get your Bandwidth cost down to compete with the rest of us. And hopefully you are a good admin, because servers are going to crash.
