Keeping the money in the bank, that gives more money.
$0 = $0
It all depends on the market you are entering and what potentials do you have. Today is more about marketing as there are many competitors out there specially big company like Amazon, Microsoft, Google etc.. If you have the potential customers then either of them would be good. For shared hosting there is lower cost and higher profit but again depends on the market. If you are young and want to try something new I would say start with Shared. I am saying that so you can save some money before you get tired of it.
Thanks
Haha, not in UK, as UK banks are sucks and offer 0.05% interest on your balance, the consumer and goverment inflation is higher than 0.05%
Software development is better way to get money.
Basically VPS selling is good as compare to shared hosting now a days because of competition in market , you can build VPS and sell it as a unmanged VPS in cheap price to earn some good money.
how about both
If you have a good business plan a capital you can make money also by selling bubble gum
Buying shared hosting and start blogging, and make some money with adsense.
If you have good sales pitch, and many local businesses, shared web
It still has to be 1998 Somewhere. In rural/industrial areas, they likely have the same provider they had for email/web as they did 20 years ago- and are paying a pretty hefty rate that would outright pay for your CPanel+Colo in 2017. This isn't a bad idea, but won't get you rich, and you're going to be helping people setup "The Bat!", or "Outlook Express" all damn day.
Find a local IT company, and forward them the requests. might get a kickback (At least some cheese for xmas)
Or death threats.
Isn't everyone using Facebook pages? (much as I hate to admit it)
Last time I checked they were talking about negative interest
0.05% its almost nothing anyway, unless you do have billion pounds?
Depends on what you target. If you go to target low end vps market, you'll do better with shared hosting. If you target enterprise customers, you'll do better with your VPS. It's all about your branding.
If you're talking real interest, you're technically correct, since the rate of inflation is greater than the rate of interest. http://study.com/academy/lesson/real-vs-nominal-interest-rates-and-changes-in-prices.html
Mostly both imo.
Some people just want a website, some want a full virtual server of their own.
But I'm thinking shared hosting has more customers.
As tmwc said, offering a variety of products, at least for us it makes sense. Some people do just want a website, others need or want their own server - be it VPS or Dedicated. Having a selection has given us good results over the years. We did well with just shared services back in the day.
