How can I start domain and hosting business

Hi,
I am very interested in Domain Hosting business area. I want to know how can I start domain hosting business ?

 

If you are thinking about opening a hosting company, you will need to invest a lot of money into servers. And that is just the beginning, no one wants to host a website at a company that has no credibility. There are so many companies out there providing this type of service, so you will need a strong branding and marketing to support your business. And that is not a one-time investment, rather you will need to gradually proceed and build a strong foundation over time.

It is a complex process, and if you do not have deep pockets, you will be wasting your time on this. At least in my opinion.

 

If I were thinking of this as a business, I would start by looking at Hostgator, which I have been using since 2004. Their pricing is quite low and their service and support is not only excellent, but 24x7. Their website configuration tools are also quite good and I can set up a new website in five minutes or less. This type of marketing research is important because you need to figure out what you are going to offer that will cause someone to use your service over a well-known company like HG.

 

Web Hosting industry is overcrowded. There are so many giant companies are out there. So, the competition is quite tough and you will have lot of money and resources to establish your hosting brand. You can go with it if you have the potential to compete. Otherwise you can promote hosting companies as an affiliate and earn generous commissions.

 

Please tell me good domain hosting providing companies which are providing good commission for affiliate . Thank you.

 

There are many popular web hosting companies are out there, who are paying generous commission for sale. For example Godaddy, Ipage, Bluehost, Hostgator, Milesweb etc.

 

You can become a re seller of any web hosting company for the start, to understand the working of domain and hosting business. you can tie up with Host Surf UK https://www.hostsurfuk.com/

 

Hosting business is not so profitable if you're just a newbie or a startup, It can be profitable if you are running web design agency then you can go for reseller hosting, there are so many resellers.

 

You can start with reseller hosting option.A good reseller is hosting24.

 

Domain Hosting business today is pretty tight, there are lots of credible firms/companies offering the service in mass. The competition is pretty tight, you can go for it if you're well funded. You can start with Hostgator

 

My fast method is buy reseller hosting pack from hostgator and resell it with ready made wordpress blog

 

i started hosting company and made it profitable enough!

step 1- get a reseller hosting account , AVOID hostgator, because they dont' let you oversell.
it should cost you somewhere near 10-15$ a month including whmcs license ( very important, you must NOT used nulled)

check their support, they should have 24x7 support on live chat, with minimal waiting time.

start promoting in local city. creatively

start making $$

 

go for domain & reseller hosting providers there you can join as a domain and hosting reseller.

 

That's also a good suggestion. He should try that as well. But he'd still spend

 

You can become a hosting reseller if you are a web designer, you can directly refer your clients if they don't have it.
You can either go for affiliate, it's your choice, hosting reselling will require you to spend another time.

If you're not a designer, then it's tough, try to go for affiliate..

 

Godaddy used to offer a service called Wild West Domains which allowed you to start your own business reselling domain names, hosting, etc. Their website is still up, but I don't know if they're still accepting new customers.

 

Well believe me web hosting is very tough business, entering in this business and making money is tough job. The king of hosting Host Gator I heard invested millions for advertising careers. So what that means even if you become giant you will have challenge to get right people to do the difficult technical jobs. And also the big companies are advertising too much they are killing small companies and awareness among clients also reducing small web host business, as now clients prefer large companies.

 

Before start such business you should be able to answer the question. Why people will prefer your hosting, why it is better. If you don't know why yours will be better - don't start. This market is overcrowded.

 

Thanks everyone for good answers .Can I start business as a affiliate ?
