Hey Kenneth,
What you would probably be looking for is a company that does reseller hosting. There are many of them out there, but I personally would recommend Hostgators’. Hostgator has plans starting at $24.95 a month, which is really cheap if you plan on selling this hosting. With that said though, if that isn’t enough for you they have other plans available as well. When you become a reseller they provide you with a hosting reseller panel, a hosting managing system, and the ability to control user information such as passwords and emails. On their website they also have a control panel demo, which gives you a feel for what it will be like running your reseller business. I definitely recommend that you check it out.. I’ve posted the link to their site below:

    Hello friend…

    it will be costly for you if you go for a server at first, you must start with a reseller account and start selling shared accounts. You may buy a reseller account from http://www.indianetcraft.com and then design a website and market it first so when you start getting buyers you can do whatever you wanted to…but at first you must start with a reseller account. it will be better to invest small amount and than go further as business grows…
