    Official web-hosting license

    Hey all,
    Alright that's a weird question I have. I never seen licenses around the hostings, but I would like to know how it is possible to actually obtain real license for "transfer data over internet" or something like that to have a patent for your hosting?
    Any suggestions?

    I do not think you would need a licence. If it is a business, contact your dept. of licenseing and get a business license. That should be all you need. Am I wrong??

    I'm not sure I understand the question--can you please clarify what you're wanting a license for?

    I am no expert but i dont think you need to get a such thing like a ''Web Hosting'' licence... Just register your biz, get your paperwork done.. and enjoy

    Uh, why would you need a DTL? I doubt it will be very usefull if you can even get them, last time I heard of anything related was a long time ago. Also, the telematic thing has little or nothing to do with webhosting.

    Yeah you need to register your business with your State or Country. However the rules may be different depending on where you live.

    Amen!

    This thread is about as usefull as as my new title as "minister of hosting and all things electronic"!

    Point being, you can get a certificate for anything, doesn't make the title mean anything. There is still a person behind the title.

    Just follow ALL business regulations and be an honest business person.
