ISDN generally isnt gonna cut it for a web server. At the very least i would recommend Cable (if not dsl) and to really do it right you would want to pull in a T1 line. Very expensive. To top it off many service providers, especially DSL and Cable providers, put "no server use" in their user agreements which means you cannot run a server on their lines. Even if you could get enough bandwidth and a provider without a server clause you still have to transfer all the domain names to your IP which is a drag. I'd stick with what youve got.
As an aternitive there are Many Hosting Companies offer a reseller package where you will get up to %50 on each. Some allow you to do your own billing where you can charge what you want. This is a good stepping stone to generate income and experance to come up with enough to run your own. One such company is hostcentric.com
