    You have absolutely no past experience with web hosting, but you're going to start a web hosting company today? Good luck!!

    I'm guessing this is not a legally-registered business, you have absolutely no business plan, no marketing plan, etc. These are all things you need and should be thought out BEFORE you start a business.

    Try learn the basics as you customers will need support and you must be able to answer at least the basics.

    Great! So I'm sure you came up with a viable business plan for your hosting business, right? Like I said, that's something you should do BEFORE you start a business...not after.

    In any event, what kind of advice are you looking for? What exactly do you need help with?

    I agree with WSWD that it seems kind of risky to go in the hosting/reselling direction when you don't have any solid past experience in the industry. My two points of advice would be to: 1) Make sure your support service is impeccable and 2) In order to attract clients consider a niche and market to it.
    Congratulations and Good Luck.
