    Hi

    I'm not sure if this is the correct place to make this post, if not, can the mods please move it? Thanks!

    I've seen many veteran marketers offering to set up free website for their customers, all they need is to pay for the hosting. A classic example is PlugInProfitSite.com

    Can anyone advise how I should go about doing it? Should I approach a hosting company first about my plan?

    Thanks for your time!

    All it really involves is a dedicated server & reseller account, and probably a handful of website templates that get recycled over and over again.

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    So I need to get a reseller hosting account first and then set up the free website myself?

    I'm thinking of doing something like this:

    exactly - basically you'll be running a server hosting business, but selling space (accounts), and offering free websites (which are usually not special, but are a good sales push).

    That guy offering 1.5 TB of bandwidth is stretching the truth - I wonder how his company would react if someone really used that much :D
