$1 per month? and offer what? 10 MB space 500 MB bandwidth?

You need at least 1000 customers to make any profit, and work like a crazy for only $1000?

I think that you need to start again your bussines plan.

I like to work like discount-hosting.com, how they are providing this service, they charge only $10 per year

Sometimes .. and almost all the times .. quantity doesn't help the quality at all.

You better do a search on donhost.com & datapacket.net in this form.

$1 per month does not guarantee customer/s. I have an account with Donhost but I sell my plan for more than what Donhost sell his plus my setup fee is $? (more than what I pay Donhost per month).

I check forum and found that peoples are not satisfied with datapacket.net, and when i talked to palmversa.com for unix hosting then they dont like to donhost.com , palmversa claiming that their services are good instead of donhost, I am confuse now that what i should i do . help me

mchost.com seem to have a good reseller plan and I am thinking of giving them a try.

If you search around. You will find a lot of horrible stories about donhost or fasthost at WHT. Also, one thing i find amazing is that they will charge you 15 pound per GB after first 50GB of data transfer. Thats almost US$20/ GB.

Due to these stories, no one do hosting business, give me good advices, i am looking to palmversa.com , there service is good i think

Look at it this way ...what do you prefer?

- More customers. Less $$$.
- Less customers. More $$$.

Its not about how many customers you have, but about how profitable your company is. :)

Was going to Private message this but you've got it turned off

1. I used Donhost for 3 months and it was hell. The attitude is horrendous and given your original plan to sell cheap and provide LOTS of accounts, I would expect Donhost to kill your account very quickly and say you were abusing the service

2. DPN - I've had no personal experience but they seem truly awful from other peoples comments.

3. I'd recommend you re-think your business plan and come up with a reasonable charging policy. Consider how long it takes you to respond to support, e-mails. Resources that your users will use in a best and worst case scenario and the costs that each will entail.

Ok, all of that said... If you can work out point #3 properly then I'd recommend you consider Flump.net and Mchost.com for *NIX hosting. Both are reasonably priced with Mchost perhaps a little more established. Both will consider reasonable requests for additional features, etc... and both offer good support.

Best of luck

hey I am from Pakistan too... want a cheaper solution then even donhost ?
