    Hello Posche,

    Well personally if you are starting a webhostinng company, I don't think it is wise to focus Locally only.... The internt is huge and placing you focus too regional would hamper quite a lot of your sales.
    You should hit the international market where there are more people ( competitors too... )

    I am always interested in a venture as we currently own our own lines and servers in GalacNet. However, all our capital are pumped into our networks and we are short changed and are unable to provide any monentary support.....

    Anyway I have added you to my Yahoo Messenger do you have MSN messenger by any chance??

    No experience when running a multi-tier web hosting business just enough experience to host and build websites. Websites ranging from Ecommerce to intensive streaming solutions. Also, I've got extensive experience in building executive information systems ranging from content management to decision support systems.

    Why do you ask?

    A hosting company is nothing like a website. It's far from "turn-key" especially one that wants to provide high quality service. I think the reason he asked is because you're asking for tens of thousands of dollars and they have to trust that you'll put that money to good use. Somebody with experience (not neccesserialy, but most likely) will know how to invest that money better and has a bigger chance of making profit then somebody with no experience.

    The people here are looking to invest in you, but if you've never dealt with hosting before, you may be in for a surprise because it's a lot harder then most people think.

    Actually no, Porsche said he was providing the $$$ and not asking for $$$$.

    Thanks for your input MindSet but if you would read my original posting on page 1- I specificaly noted that I, as in myself, would be investing the ten of thousands of dollars... I'm only looking for talented individuals to join my team- people with the desire to make it happen for them and the company.

    Cheers

    Thanks Tracert- I'm actually more interested in starting up my own company with fresh new offers, new leads, new servers etc....

    I wouldn't mind you telling me about the offer you got... I'm on Yahoo: Veloce777

    Thanks

    Hi Porche,

    If you have a solid business idea, that relates to hosting, why would you need others to join you in partnership? That waters down your profits, the fact is with hosting it is irrespective of where you are located. If you are even in timbuktoo you can still host as many sites in the world as you wish.
