Title: Would this work?
Post by: Grenadier214 on February 21, 2013, 02:57:03 PM
So basically,

Im planning on selling web space for bitcoins.

I have a reseller account, i have had it for a long time. I used to give the space out for free! But now im considering giving people web hosting accounts with reasonable amount of space in exchange for 1 or 2 bitcoins. I cant register domains and stuff for you, but you can transfer your own domain to your web hosting account i have provided you.

I basically have this reseller account forever, so i can do what i want with it! Would people be interested in this? Or am i just going to fail?

Hosting accounts are cheap to free these days. I host my clients websites for free on my server.

Its a one time payment though, of 1 Bitcoin. I personally don't think you will find an offer like that anywhere else..

He just said he hosts people for free. Unless the value of BTC crashed overnight, I'm pretty sure that free is better ;)

Where is the business model? You're going to still have to pay electricity and hosting costs for lifetime accounts. Google gives you stuff for free in order to place ads in front of your eyeballs.

I don't think I could do that myself, I'd either want to pay more for reliability or nothing at all.
