Hey I have been thinking a while about doing this i need serious reply s and help.The only reason I haven't got and setup a sever box it because of electricity right?well we might be getting solar in the weeks to come. I have a close family member that offered me a sever box to start of with its decent, my main worrie would be is drop outs its has 2 power supply so that all good. The cost of it isent cheap even though its of a family member they still cant just give it away. I want to earn extra money.so i think the sever box may be the go? could i have some information about runing your own sever box should I be advertised and get people to run of my sever im going to need to cover the cost. I have some time of how can I start first I need to learn about severs.
 
Forgot to add i have some experience with running sever i also have experiences with computers and some command im not one of these guys rushing into this idea, im prepared and dedicated. thanks
 
Have you looked at the cost of bandwidth?
If you charge people to use your server they are going to want real speed.
Unless you have a massive solar array don't expect much in the reduced electric bill.
You may want to see roughly how many people will want to use your server service first before putting big money into it.
How much storage space can you afford to offer per customer?

I'm not knocking your idea, just adding to your list of things to consider.
