Hi,

How many of you is providing web hosting and management for offline businesses?

Have been thinking about offering the follow for like $50-60/mo (for very small businesses):

- They get a domain name, which I will buy.
- Hosting is included.
- Gmail account will be created and setup so the domain email works with gmail.
- The website itself will have wordpress installed with a small good looking theme which describe the business and how to contact them.
- Unlimited support requests (both phone and email).
- If they need a new image uploaded or change some text, then they just call or send an email and it will be changed as a part of the monthly subscription payment.

    Long time thinking about such an action ...
    Since I live in a small community, it would be locally-oriented ...
    I think it's a great idea and that can be implemented ...

    Every time we do a new website or refurbish an old we we always get the hosting.

    It really depends on where you are. I'm in Albania for example and here the general public thinks that a website is the same thing as a poster :S

    But if you contact the businesses directly you can get much more than $50-$60

    I mean what's $60 for a average sized business today! Zilch!

    Yes. I use the same setup above, and also throw in 3-4 expiring hours of work for $200-$500/mth depending on their business. I find 99% rarely ever use the 3-4 hours per month. This leaves a tidy profit for zero work.

    Highly lucrative.
