Thinking of starting a company - ProtectNull™ - Jun 13, 2015

Private Offshore VPN (No bullshit) - 500Mbps+
Webhosting/VPS/Dedicated Servers (Offshore, Nice Prices etc.)

Anything else you can think of?

I mean if you add portforwarding to the VPN it can attract RAT users.

You can also add voice servers or game servers if you'd like.

The VPN market is pretty saturated, mate.

You should definitely add port-forwarding to attract customers as well.
Sending you a piece of advice via PM.

Minecraft is saturated, but everyone buys from popular hosts, you could try new popular games if you want. 🤝

Unless you're willing to spend around $500 - $1000 on upgrades, custom client and decent servers you're outta luck with both over saturated markets.


* - Blindly - Jun 14, 2015

You should really look into something else mate, both the markets are pretty saturated.

Market is pretty damn saturated. If you're going to do it, you better be shooting for being unique.

Or just do everything better and cheaper. Also have a very large advertising budget.

This is just a bad advice. You cannot possibly do "everything better and cheaper" in this small scale. The more you buy (servers), the cheaper you'll get them. if you're not buying hundreds or thousands of them, you won't get them any cheaper and you can't possibly outprice any big competitors. The same goes for everything else, not just servers.

The OP is not going to get anything done, I'm just saying. In business, an idea without execution is nothing. He's just throwing out ideas but has no clue what he's doing or how to actually execute his ideas.

You need some good short and long term plans before starting a business. Everyone can come up with an idea but that alone is worth nothing.

Host a SMTP friendly server and I will be your first customer!!!


* - Faithfull - Jun 15, 2015

Host good priced arms servers 2&3), VPN with port forwarding, offshore vps, voice servers and csgo servers :)


* - HIGH PAID FELLA - Jun 15, 2015

Do something new, something attractive that people need. Also something where you have knowledge of, or willing to learn for (No, not that type of learning. Serious learning.)
