[NTLUG:Discuss] setting up a web-hosting company

[David Neeley]

One of the benefits of a hosting service is that they often have things 
like "canned" software routines for getting sites up quickly, monitoring 
and reporting software to determine your traffic, and even sometimes 
availability of credit card acceptance on an expedited and cheap basis.

Later, as your service grows, you can consider co-location of your own 
machine. With the low-profile rack mount systems out there, rack space can 
be pretty cheap.
