How to start up a webhosting company? - NotAPC - May 29, 2014

What are some tips someone could give me?

Should I get a reseller package? [found a decent one that does basically all the support for me] -but I also wanna learn a little more about it myself-

I'm in college for IT majoring in cyber security and I wanna get more into the scene. So can anyone help? I'll be putting all my money into and my time..

Just want to get some points! <3

If you are getting a reseller hosting just make sure that it's from a reliable provider. Don't go for some cheap reseller hosting, they probably will be overselling their resources. If you are good with servers then it's even better to get a VPS and use Cpanel along with it. This will grant you more control.

If you need some help with this pm. Make sure the hosting is reliable dont just got for the cheapest.

Due to previous experience, I'd recommend not too buy a re-seller package and in fact pay for a dedicated server, as in a re-seller package, you are limited too alot of things like space and you don't have 100% control over it. ✌

I found one more a pretty big company that has pretty good services and looks after tickets.. even tho I rather look after so I can learn... and how much would a dedi and cpanel cost me?

Buy a server with a cPanel / WHM license so you can go through it all yourself... It'll be a better learning experience and like others have said, you'll have full control.

So go to cpanel and pay the 300monthly? Or can someone post links to better findings

Hey, message me I could possibly give you some pointers!

It's $30 monthly for Cpanel if it's for a dedi and $15 per month for VPS Cpanel license.Although i highly recommend you to get a Managed VPS though so that you will get enough support from your host.
