Yup, I agree with you. Today new companies don't sustain the cost and expenditure of running a web hosting business. A professional web hosting business cannot be started with $25 in paypal enough to buy a reseller and the dream to run a successful company . You need to make sure that you have enough money to sustain the cost of the server/reseller for a year minimum to grow and recover your expenses. Apart from money, analysis and planning need to be done to make your web hosting company sustainable if not profitable. I hope my short note helps someone who is planning to start a web hosting company in the near future. Kind Regards, Monty Limespace Networks
This is the reason why I don't buy hosting here right away, first I offer my signature spot as a trade and If I am happy with the hosting then maybe that's the TIME I am welling to PAY for it.
Yeh...Main things that come out to be really bad are those 10$ /year unlimited hosting accounts, which people take as a really GREAT offer..and then regret it once their hosting acc stops working etc.. thats why you should always go for quality and not for the price..
I love how you are so wrong about Small webhosting companies... Most of your comments are just plain poor and not clearly says that you haven't thought to much trough what your saying. It sounds like your talking about one individual company, but your trying to make it sound like every single small company out there... We are 4 people that run Vixile, and 2 people that run the network Falecto... We have no issues what so ever having at least one person online at any given time... Me myself, is online 16 hours a day, so in reality i would only need one person to cover the last 8 hours right?
I appreciate it if you provide good service, and my hammer doesn't come on your way since you are not a one man show. But still, some points I made stand still on small hosting companies. I would always pay a few more bucks for GoDaddy or HostGator for the peace of mind, so we can concentrate on the business instead of crappy downtimes etc.. Thanks for the inputs anyway..
well most of them r scammers and m also new thats y u can try our services for 2 days and then pay invoice if u like it
