Hi @mazgalin, and welcome to LET.
Unfortunately, your idea is not new, nor is it unique. I was planning on doing the same about 6 months ago; however did some research and found others already providing it. It's something I still want to try just to say i've been able to do it, and like you I have already got accounts at various template providers etc...
For what I wanted, WP network install (formerly WP MU) wasn't able to do what I needed... end users couldn't physically change templates so all looked very much the same with options changed to change colours, widgets etc. Most people want to be physically able to make changes to the templates.
I ended up going with individual hosting accounts, with the WP core set up in the skeleton directory so it was automatically uploaded; and then getting them to tell me which theme they wanted and I would manually upload it and send them the documentation. Then I linked their dashboard into my MainWP install and could remotely update plugins, templates etc. It also allows me to do backups. If a site is generating too much traffic I simply move the site to a different server and as the TTL is so low I can update the IP and it's rerouted.
Don't worry about your English too much. As long as people can understand what you mean (and your English is clear enough for that), it won't be an issue - it's much more important to have the right intention in your communication.
Even if your English isn't very good, simply trying to explain the specifics of your idea will make people much more willing to listen.
wpmanaged.org isn't so bad indeed
Thank you very much Mr General. I will send you a private message asap.
Your post wasn't that classy, was it?
@DeanKamitsis
My idea is not to provide all the possible features but only the basic ones at a small price. If people want more advanced things there are lots of hosting platform where they can start their website.
Yeah I should try and express myself more directly than keeping things "hidden"
Also own wpmanage.org
Auto backups will be the first thing i work on after installing WordPress.
Don't forget; you need to backup everything - not only Wordpress. Save your config files from the software you install!
Will keep that in mind. Thanks for your input.
