I've been wanting to start out on my own for a while, just to generate a little extra money

To be frank, that scares me. I want my webhost to live and breath hosting, not treat it as a side-project.

There are certain people that I will not appeal to, and I want to make sure that is easily visible to everyone. One of the largest problems I have seen in the industry is inaccurate selling and deceiving customers. I don't want to attract large websites I am actively aiming at small, low traffic, low impact websites. Those are the easiest customers to support and the easiest to please.
