Demand for Web Design/Web Host

[moneypower1]

I was just wondering if its worth starting a Web Design/Web Host business. Is this business in demand? I have heard from other people how there are tonnes of hosting and design companies and its a waste of time. I just want to hear what you guys have to say, as I am considering whether or not to start one.

Thanks

Hey if you can find a niche market or say you decide to compete with your local competition and can handle it then by all means go for it. It is a saturated market, but if you have the right product for the right customers then it can happen. So, I am not sure if I am helping to much, but if you feel you can do a better Job then the next guy and you are willing to prove it then I say go for it..

Good Luck either way!!!

The market is compleley saturated but that didn't stop me from jumping in. If you feel your product is better than the competition then all it takes is strong marketing to make yourself known.

This of course depends on how busy you want to be. I created an agency of freelancers with no overhead to keep costs lower than most agencies but a touch hire than say freelancers from india. But I feel my teams quality is 2nd to none so I went for it.

Not to mention I do more than those 2 services.

Both hosting and design are saturated, but if you can find your niche market like Bemyownboss said, then you could do very well. Since i've started my company earlier this year, its taken some time to find that market but we're well on the path to success.
