I am intend to set up a domain hosting service to just sell ONE plan. However I would like your opinion about the price and the range of feature I will be offer.
400 Mb Storage
8000Mb Data transfer monthly
NO SETUP FEES
400 unique POP3 Mailboxes with AutoResponders
100 Mailing Lists,
300 sub domains
Page counters included
File backup
FrontPage 2k
SSL
SSH/Telnet
CGI-Bin
MySQL including 10 databases.
PHP4 + APC
For just $10/month
Or $99/year with domain registration for 1 yr.
Do you think the package is attractive or too pricey? Any essential feature I should add to my plan?

You might lost your money if some one really use up the 8GB traffic + 400 unique POP3 Mailboxes with AutoResponders, 100 Mailing Lists, 300 sub domains.
They can setup a free hosting site and let 300 user host at their domain. You need to state clearly and carefully on the terms and conditions.

Just curious, where do you plan on making your money?
Remember - if you offer it, you need to support it. To me it looks like you are setting yourself up for abuse.
Who knows, you could be the next Host Rocket with this plan.

The only concern I have is that you would end up needing to load up the server with a lot of web sites to make a decent profit off this plan.
Also, keep in mind that even with an 18 Gb hard drive, it would only take about 45 users to fill it up, if each of them used their allotted space. I know that's extremely unlikely, so you are probably going to be able to get away with it- but if you get a few large sites on the server it could really hurt.
Good luck, and I hope that if you do offer this plan you will be able to adequately support it and make a decent profit.
