Anyone willing to get rid of hosting clients?
Hi!
Long time since I've been here for the last time Nice to see all of you!
You know, guys, in the past 6 months 3 persons contacted us asking whether we are willing to take their webhosting clients.
Two of those gave their clients for free (12 and 15 clients), the third asked for 10% comission and gave us 36 clients...
A funny thing - they just wanted to get rid of hosting issues and focus on their primary businesses only.
This made us wonder - does anyone want to pass hosting clients? For example, to us
As far as I got the situation - having 10-30 customers is more a pain than a profit. Well, may be. We also started with 7 customers and almost a year has passed till we got 100. Now we have much-much more
OK, the main question - does anyone want to get rid of hosting clients?
Waiting to hear from you!

That's free money, but that's free pain in the butt as well
It's difficult to run webhosting business with 10-30 clients, especially if you do other things like webdevelopment/webdesign at the same time.
Many webdevelopment/webdesign companies strive to get their own server or reseller package and host their clients. They expect either to earn several bucks extra or seem to provide most-complete-solutions-ever or even both
Naturally they get tired of managing all that hosting-arounds: billing, support, etc.
So, they are most willing to pass hosting to someone else rather than deal with all that fuss and lose the ability to focus on primary goals...
That's why we went here Maybe someone's willing to get rid of hosting issues and focus on their business only.
As long as this thread is now in as section - I can tell the following. We can't afford buying large hosters...
We'll accept your clients if you don't want them anymore We may discuss some reasonable comission as well.
So, come on, people! Who will open the bidding?

That was a joke. I'm guessing you don't get too many American mobster movies over where you're from or you would have gotten it.

another saying 'we' have is: one man's junk, is another man's treasure. keep it up and you will have 200, 300 clients soon it's just amazing that people 'give away' clients for whatever reason. at least sell them for $10 and order a pizza.
