Ditto - We host "managed code" only - meaning we wrote or QAed the code on the box. No Access sites and no brochure sites. That way we can charge what it's actually worth to us (200 to 300 a site) rather than try to make it up in volume. We also don't advertise our hosting service because we don't want to get sucked into that as our core business. We prefer to sell shovels than break our backs in the mine (if you know what I mean <w>).

I did, now I don't. Never going back again: Their problems become your pr oblems. I found I do much better when I host my design clients only. I wr ote all of the code, so I know it works (or at least know where to fix it ; D) and my hosting revenue from existing clients now roughly equals my desig n/coding revenue... now that I get to keep all of it.

By this I mean getting a large hosting plan at some host, then reselling the space to your clients. Typical reselling plan that many webhosts seem to push. If you do, does it seem worth your while? What can one expect to make on this stuff. $15 per client?
