What are the costs associated with opening a web hosting business?
That depends if you do the hosting, or just resell. If you just resell, that is sell someone elses hosting plans, then costs are minimal... just owning and maintaining a website, promotion, etc. If you do the hosting yourself you got those then hardware, business costs, etc etc etc...
