exactly the same as what stewis posted along with:

do you really make any profit with that? i thought you were with rackshack so:

your plan * 10 = 600gbbandwidth usage, by this time your loads would probably be very high and the server not going all that well... you would be bringing in $150.

Now, te P4 servers range around $129 to $169 plus setup costs, although to be making much profit you also have to cover:

server administration time (or if you hired an administartor - cost).
support time.
mainting the server
setting up accounts
charging for accounts (if you do that manually)

once you include the cost / alue of all that you should then just add a small percentage of it on your total amount, if then you dont get many customers try REAL advertising - you may find that depending where you advertise it DOES work. and you will make a "real" profit.

as with any business you need to take risks and spend out on advertising, it could fail, but it could also get you lots of sales. Businesses always have to take risks in my opinion, if its bringing out new products, changing old products, looking for advertising, looking for new staff or anything else.

Hmm I was'nt adverticing, I was just stateing what I had came up with, and yes i do make around a $50 profit, that's it. I don't make much in this industry and I do not plan to.

- server administration time (or if you hired an administartor - cost).
- - I hire an Admin for $30 per server
- support time.
- - I do support and I have friends who get on alot to do support.
- mainting the server
- - System admin does that, I also set up everyhting by myself
- setting up accounts
- - I look at submission every 2 hours, or my friend does on late nights.
- charging for accounts (if you do that manually)
- - I this with paypal right now but I do it with PHP.

I have no idea where to advertice, WHT sucks ***, and no one has ever refered me to a place to advertice, I want good resault since as you can tell, I don't make much.

Profit is easy to come accross with a 73GB HD, and 1TB of bandwith on every server.

All the servers do get upgraded to dual proccessors to help the load. There is a limit with these plans, I on'y allow so many on each server and as you can tell only a certain amount of accounts are allowed on there, I don't fill servers with 100 Domains, I only place around 15 - 30 domains PER SERVER, I have taken risks all my life and where has is gotten me? No where. I finally find someone who let's me use there server for a site and then I learned from there. I am on alot during the day so support is good. I am just sharing what I offer. did you see a link to my site? No, The WWW link on my account does not go to my hosting site, it goes to my never going to be finished gaming site.

I did'nt place and AIM or MSN or Yahoo or IM information I just wanted to get an opion on what I am offering. Go to WHT and ***** at ppl there, Isaw 1 plan:

3GB Disk Space
50GB Bandwith
3.95 a month!

How can I compare to that? I am glad that I do get negative opions here, this will help me in the future and if you have anyhting to say to me say it. I don't care if it hurts me, it's problley good opion.

Your an idiot, that pretty much sums it up. Also, I'm just going to ban you, see ya.

Also, to further discuss, next time anyone wants to sass me because you can't read the rules, don't bother, I have zero tolerance for it. If you cannot follow the rules, your gone. This is an advertisement, it broadcasts a special you have, broadcasting is related to getting the word out, which is also associated with advertising and is a prime definition. Now I'm sorry your inadequate intelligence limits your ability to understand this, but rules are rules, and since you constantly can't read and constantly get on my nerves with mass posting, your just banned, and if you happen to come back, I'll just ban you again, it's really simple, eventually you'll get tired, I won't, it's all point and click for me, you have to fill out the form.

So let this be a lesson, behave, and I have no problem with you, sass me and act like a nuisance, your gone.
