Was not sure were to put this so I placed it here.
After working on my site for a year or so I decided to buy a VPS. My site is free to the world and of course makes no money. I am fine with that.
I am cruising around and find this site. Looking at the different sections I decide what the heck I will sponsor sites. This is cool I like helping people. Within a week or so I am sponsoring 4 sites.
I start thinking about my server. Umm I say to myself I will split up what is left into 2 sections.
1st section of course contains my site
2nd section for sponsored sites and future sponsored sites.
3rd section is the one I am having problems with.
I got 5G space with about 300G band left on the third section
I decide to place ad in another section here on the site to see what can be drummed up.
My question to you pros out there is what the heck can I do with the space?
One thought that came up besides my original ideas was to offer no frills webspace.
By no frills I mean only thing that gets support is network issues. Or hell you can ask me a question but chances are I won’t know the answer.
If I split up the remain section I could get 15 sites at 300MB space And 10G band per site leaving some pipe open so no bottleneck occurs.
I don’t really want to be a host provider. Yet it would be nice to make some money off the dang thing.
Is it even worth my time to try to sell these items? Really the only thing the customer would get would be good pipe. And a non-oversold server.
If it is not worth my time any suggestions on how I could put the 3rd section to work?
