Volgan,

First and foremost I would like to wish you the best of luck in your business endeavor. Now for the school of hard knocks in the web hosting industry...

1) What type of web hosting are you offering? Is this shared, reseller, VPS, Cloud, Dedicated? Are you offering game servers or CDNs?

2) How do you plan to facilitate computer repairs? Is this local to Ohio only? What type of machines do you plan to service? What type of issues will you service?

3) You have not specified the knowledge your technical support staff needs to be seasoned in.. What type of control panel are you using? Cpanel, Helm, DirectAdmin, Plesk, OnApp, or some other obscure control panel? Are you running Apache or LiteSpeed? What type of mail server are you running? Do you plan to use a DNS cluster? Do your server(s) run Linux or Windows? If Linux are you running RedHat, CentOS, or CloudLinux? What flavor?

4) Do you have your own server that is leased or colocated? Are you running a reseller account or a VPS?

5) Your pay outs are unrealistic and have failure written all over them. To further on that, no legitimate prospect will take your company serious with staff names such as "FullMetalBabe"...

...Let alone a hosting company using forum software as the basis for their website. This alone has your venture doomed for failure unless you take dramatic measures to correct your design and language usage.

6) At $7.45 per client monthly you will need have some seriously jacked up service prices in order to pay everybody. This is an unrealistic business model. How do you propose to pay everyone? How will you deliver payment? Is your business registered with the federal government? Are your "employees" required to take out their own taxes? Are you having your "employees" work as 1099 contractors?

7) Why haven't you advertised at Web Hosting Talk which is the central hub for the web hosting industry? Do you know how to run a server or a business?

8) Do you have a business plan or are you winging it?

nForc3r made a very valid point that every legit businessman knows, work on your clients first then staff. More true words could not have been spoken. You must grow into your shoes instead of trying to wear the biggest shoe size possible. OK, so you get the biggest shoes size possible, now what? Where are the clients? Where is the business? Suddenly your grand enterprise is breaking apart at the seams. Then again the seams were never tightly knit to begin with. Things that last take time to build. Your current foundation is weak. You can tell me I am wrong, that is fine, but you will see yourself when this does not go anywhere.

My advice: Rethink your entire plan, make a realistic business model that is achievable. Start small, grow into your shoes. Be professional. What you have demonstrated here and on your site is unprofessional and reminiscent of a business that was spawned after watching a late night infomercial on how to start a web hosting company.

Tell us about web hosting? Tell us how DNS works? Tell us what makes you different from the other web hosts on the Internet. I have been in the industry for way too long and nothing agitates me more than yet another fly-by night company who knows nothing about the industry and further clogs the Internet with terrible hosting. This is why the industry is so oversaturated and why good paying customers have issues making educated decisions when choosing a web host. They can't differentiate who is legit and who is not.
