Hi, my name is Joseph

I would love to one day start my own hosting company. I am currently a website and been looking at the posts on this forum. I think it would be cool for me to start a company one day because i love computers and everything about them so why not do something u like for the rest of you life right. Can you please give me books, links, anything to help me start planing to make a company one day. To tell you the truth i am a 15 going on 16 but DONT let the age fool you i am very driven to my work.

Thank you for reading this post and for the comments in advance

an again please dont let the age fool you because people have a habit of doing so my work is under vaule but i deliver good websites!

The first thing I would say is that its good you have drive but can you commit to working 24x7 or pay people to provide support 24x7? If not then you need to work out how to provide that as this isn't a part time job, its full time and clients at least expect semi decent reponse times. With that said have a look at http://www.webhostingtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=94 for some starting guides

Also remeber if you are under 18 then you need a parent or guardian to sign contracts etc as you can't legally enter into them

The best book you are going to have about hosting is this forum, wht.

Read stuff on running a web hosting business forum, and also do searches on 'new hosting company' and like keywords.

This will be your best resource:
