i'd like opinions on what i have to offer for my initial plan. In the future i want to offer more space and bandwidth to everyone while keeping the price the same. I only plan on offering 1 hosting plan and expanding the space and bandwidth in the future as i grow. Is this a good start? There are many bigger hosting companies that offer insane ammounts of space and bandwidth, Is the market to crowded? should i not make the investment in a webhosting company and do something else? can i compete with those big companies even though i don't offer insane quantities of disk space and bandwidth?
$9.95/month
no overselling space or bandwidth
2GB space
20GB monthly bandwidth
unlimited domains
unlimited email accounts with webmail
unlimited MYSQL databases
PHP, CGI, etc
CPanel, Fantastico Deluxe
shared SSL
ticket support system, email support, (live chat and phone support in the future)
and much more...
I'm thinking of starting a web hosting company. Is this a good plan to start with?
If your main selling point is going to be a good price for specific space and bandwidth, then you're going to find yourself with a LOT of competition. Try to find a niche market.
For example, I offer web hosting to a specific target audience, with a LOT of hand-holding and personal attention and custom maintenance services, and my plan STARTS at $300 a month (much more when continual SEO is involved).
