    I've seen some dedicated servers hosted in the Netherlands more often than other places. I'm not very experienced with other datacenters in Europe, but I can answer your other questions.

    I'd suggest you rent a dedicated server first off. Make sure you have the clients to do what you want to do. You can find a good, large, server for around $200-500. I know of one place with these specs:
    Dual Quad Core E5620
    4x500GB SATA II drives
    48 GB DDR3 RAM
    10TB @ GigE
    for $479.
    Deals are out three, just keep digging.

    For billing systems, I suggest starting off with WHMCS and SolusVM. Make sure you have plenty of time on your hands to fiddle with all these different things. You'll need to know how to install and optimize programs on your machine first off. Many providers install Linux for free on dedicated servers, and CentOS is the easiest. You should probably buy a $5-10 CentOS OpenVZ VPS just to make sure you know your way around.

    As for other things you may need to know about.. You need a design, marketing strategies/tactics (strategies != tactics), theme, logo, plans, and any other goodies you want your customers to have. It took me about 4 days to complete my whole site for web hosting.

    tl;dr: There is more than you know to think about.
