Hello fellow Fastlaners.
It’s been a long time since I last posted something and maybe now is the right time to return.
Over the last years I was busy to stabilize my income. Currently I have a typical onetrepreneur business. Even that’s not my goal, it was important to make this experience and prove to myself that I can find customers who are interested in my products.
My current business consist of several parts:
Right now we (a friend and I) are focusing on a new idea, and I would like to hear your opinion.
As I progressed with my main business I realized, that many startups have the problem of a very tight budget. So rather than charging for a complete site, I switched over to monthly payment plans.
Same problem appears when it comes to hosting.
I observed that many startups weren’t satisfied with their hosting. They had problems with high response times of their sites (slow loading times, google doesn’t like this!), unresponsive support and so on. That occurred mostly with cheap hosting, that cost less than $20 a month. But they didn’t had the money to buy their own servers. As they progressed, most regretted the decision of buying such a low budget hosting at the beginning, especially with the increased cost of migrating everything to a new hoster. So I offered them inexpensive high performance server and so far I never lost a single customer.
So I thought, it might be a good idea to launch a high performance “pay what you want” hosting, exclusively for entrepreneurs. Basically one can sign up and select his own price. We want to build an active community and help the new ones, so we only allow startups that are younger than 12 month to join the program, once in, they can stay as long as they want.
The startup can select a price for the hosting starting at $0 a month. There will be no benefit for a higher rate whatsoever. The customer can adjust this rate at every time.
The second part of the business is the community and the knowledge base. We want to provide free forum and chat support for all questions there might be, regarding to set up a site with WordPress and which plugins are best for what. The idea is to gather entrepreneurs who can also help each other with setting up their websites. This whole thing might be a little ideological but I really want to do this and give back to the community.
For the first step, we made a little landing page: http://priag.com/ and try to determine if there is enough interest and entrepreneurs see value in the service.
Rules:
Benefits:
From my 10 year experience I know those resources are enough to grow a company and not to wasteful. Additionally if someone needs more he can contact us.
What do you think? Would you sign up for such a service? Your Feedback is highly appreciated!
Kind Regards
Patrick
