5 GB bandwidth

10 GB bandwidth

3 GB space
25 GB bandwidth

Any prices??

The price would depend on at least a dozen different variables, so no one will be able to answer that but you.

You have to look at your costs, see how much money it takes to run a business, then calculate a modest ROI and this will give you a rough price estimate. On top of that, you have to decide what target market you will go after and stay competitive with other hosting providers that serve the same niche.

I think you need more disk space and bandwidth if you're planing to start business, even if it's for pocket change profit.

Yes. I agree with that.

The vast majority of sites barely need a couple hundred MBs, and push a few GBs of data, so I don't think that more space is the priority. Besides, such a focus can too easily lead you to a bad reseller hosting provider choice. You need to sell the packages to the right people, and explain how much can be done with a seeminly small hosting account.

It is very difficult to compete on price and space especially with the big guys out there. The plans previously mentioned will cover most of the customers you will attract. Very few of my customers actually use the space/bandwidth they purchased.

As previously mentioned, you will have to look at your overall expenses, look at the overall profit you'd like to make and plan your prices accordingly. Don't use your competitors as your pricing model, but rather choose your prices based on your finances and be sure to make your prices in line with your competitors.

And first and foremost, you need to have a business plan. By creating a comprehensive business plan, you will have answered many of these questions.

Sell enough plans to pay off your hosting bills, once that is done purchase more plans and allocation the resource. Make sure your prices will cover your cost.
