1. If you are planning to start a temporary company and want to earn 10$ per month:
Buy a reseller plan (around$5/Month or less?) + a domain
Cost: $5 per month
The bad: Are you crazy? :fp:Why would you create such a hosting company?

2. If you are serious but low on $:
Buy a VPS.
Start selling hosting from it. (You can sell only a limited amount of hosting based on your VPS's specs)
Cost of a VPS differs based on specs, location, just google around.

3. If you are serious and have a lot of $
Buy a Dedi
Start selling VPSs & Shared/Reseller Hosting from it (I am not really sure how, :( )
Cost of Dedicated servers is usually high ($50+/Month)

Thanks for the help, and to answer your question "Why would you create such a hosting company?" I am starting one because i have nothing to do and earning some money would be nice.

the best service is ovh hosting company go for it

forgot to say they are self maintained servers so u must have some knowledge on that site

Takumi Usui made a great reply to your thread. I'm glad he included three ideas that you could run by.

In my opinion since you're asking such a question in your thread, is that you should start off with reseller hosting which is the cheapest route to go. This way you can start getting used to making clients and advertising. You can easily earn big bucks from reseller hosting if you do it correctly. After a few months of practicing with this route you can turn your profits into an investment with buying real hardware and configuring your dedi with firewalls and such.

It takes money to make money. Best of luck with your future endeavors as a host!

A real 1U server for example can easily cost you thousands and then you also have to pay for maintenance.

I'd go with reseller stuff though. If you want, we can set up a hosting together I have some stuff ready already:
(domain, reseller package)

Hit me up, I'm interested in this...

If you do happen to do webhosting I do recommend cPanel, It is the best control panel for anything website related.

For your dedi one, you would use WHM for the selling and WHMCS to automate it all Now you know.
