MenuI don't have much experience in the space, but a few things crossed my mind, so I wanted to share them.
First off, I don't think GoDaddy offers great hosting services - maybe an idea would be to find a better hosting company that provides better services. This does beg the question: what is your target audience.
If you find a few niches that need consulting on hosting services, you might be able to bring more value by presenting different offers: cheap and fast at GoDaddy, or faster, more reliable and secure somewhere else. You could then pepper some other services on top, such as a CDN (look into CloudFlare) and SSL - which you can configure as part of a premium package.
Another idea would be to market a specific app, such as Wordpress for X. Get pre-configured Wordpress accounts, install cool plugins and a great theme (even paid) for Photography for example, and offer it up as a package. Two things: (1) this is getting more into web development than strictly hosting but it might work better, and 2) you might choose other, more targeted niche software, rather than Wordpress; in the blogging space there are a few new products, such as Medium and Ghost - maybe there's a hosted alternative that provides better value to some people than Wordpress ever will.
Just my 2 cents, hope it helps!
