We all know that truely unlimited hosting is imposable to offer.
With all the unlimited reseller account is it driving the hosting prices into the ground.

I have had 2 unlimited resellers accounts in the past (wich died quick btw :p)
Now i have a server and am learning how to run things b4 i offer any services.
Iv also got its fully managed with 24/7 updates and support so i know it will run safely with my limited knolage
But looking at some hosts offers how can we compeat?

Thay dont care how much there offering as thay have no limits (well thay think thay dont)

We can oversell abit but theres allwas the wory that some site will come along that uses masive resorces.

As i sead im still learning so i hope this isnt just rambleing :)

aslo please dont complain about my spelling i know its bad for a 26yo :)

For now my server isnt about profits... infact as i learn im loseing $204 a month but i refuse to offer any services untill im fully capable at helping any clients i host


Also if anyone has any info on settingup VPS hosting please could u give me some... it could help cut my costs as a learn

It depends what market you're aiming at, those who would take an unlimited host, would probably not even consider paying the premium for a sensible host, so just ignore them and focus on offering a quality service at a sustainable price, there are customers who value knowing the hosting will be about next week, next month or even in a few years.
