I would like to know if someone can tell me how to start my own hosting company or have a way that i can use my existing site without having someone forwarded to another site....or something like this basically i dont want someone to know that I don't actually have ten server racks in my basement or something...
 
I am not certain I understand the problem correctly, but all you need to do is to create two name (DNS) servers and that's about it. Then point all other domains, or customers domain to those two name servers.
Name servers need one static IP each. If you cannot achieve that, just rent two VPSes somewhere, and host name servers there, while web, mail, whatever part can be hosted in your basement.
 
Have people buy on your site for a price that is higher than what you pay the host that you use to white-label them the hosting. Then just process all support tickets through your own website.
 
1st option
Subscribe for a VPS/Dedicated server. Get a CPanel + WHMCS Licensed. Install cpanel on your server and setup your selling website. It's sound easy but trust me.. The hardest part is to maintain the server + giving top notch support.

2nd option
Register as reseller at a reliable hosting company.. The will give you a reseller account with a white label cpanel+WHMCS.. You can use your own domain on it.. You save time on maintaining the server.. And you can just foward any technical problem to them. But the margin gonna be thin for you.

Maybe someone with more experience on this field can give more help on this

As it seems you lack basic understanding of how hosting, server enviroments and stuff around that works, you should stick with the whitelabel reselling as other suggested.
othwerwise it'S gonna be pain in the ass for all sides.

Spend few years learning Linux servers first, then few years on TCP/IP then you are ready to go

Totally agree.. Managing server is really pain in the ass..
 
So with a white label-reseller can they login directly from my site? or know that it is some other company on the back end?
 
@greenGabbard

One of the first things you can look at doing is getting set up with your own reseller account from a web host. Most host you will be able to get a reseller hosting account and set up with a custom name server, enom reseller account, and add on whmcs.

This is really all you need to start out with to get going with offering shared and reseller hosting.

Then once that gets up and going you can look at adding in VPS and Dedicated servers as well.

Best of luck

Awesome thank you very much all of you guys.....I will dig further
 
Start from the bottom and work yourself up mate - e.g. a reseller account then your own servers!
Always put your main site on a small VPS and expand that accordingly.
 
for a start you can go ahead with reseller option....later on you can migrate to other option
