Description of Reseller Hosting

The Internet has become a crucial element in everybody's everyday agenda. Everybody would like to establish their very own web page, whether for enjoyment, for socialization or commercial ends. The website hosting industry niche is flourishing. Why don't you take a slice of the pie yourself?

What can you offer?

The majority of the providers distribute Linux-powered web hosting services. Linux is a multi-user OS, which is extremely suitable for both dedicated web hosting and shared hosting servers. The typical reseller hosting scheme that corporations offer is the cPanel one, as the cPanel hosting CP tool offers three access levels - root (meant for the hosting supplier itself), reseller (that is where you enter) and user (for your customers). Although some do allow overselling, in the majority of the situations you are bound by the web hosting storage space and bandwidth restrictions of your reseller hosting plan. It is like a sphere, which you stuff with tinier spheres - when you have stuffed it all up, you cannot add more.

Offer VPS web hosting or dedicated server web hosting accounts

The greater part of the web hosting service providers providing VPS web hosting and dedicated web hosting do not really mind if you utilize the Virtual Private Server or the dedicated hosting web server to sell web hosting accounts. If you elect to resell web hosting accounts availing of a dedicated hosting web server, you will have total authority over the entire physical server, the ability to perform any configuration modifications you like and the ability to keep track of all the clients hosted on it. The VPS servers offer comparable specifications, but in the majority of the cases you cannot perform any kernel changes or adjustments, which involve kernel module rearrangement. The best CP software that allows you to sell hosting accounts using your dedicated server or VPS is, once again, cPanel, although you can also utilize DirectAdmin, depending on which CP user interface lives up to your anticipations better.

What do you need to be a reseller?

In order to be a hosting reseller and commence your reseller hosting business, you need a web site, a billing platform, a merchant account with an online payment processor such as PayPal, WorldPay, MoneyBookers, 2CheckOut, etc., and an SSL certificate to guarantee that your clients' information is defended when they make payments using your website when buying a web hosting product. Famous invoicing systems that you can avail of are WHMCS, AWBS and ClientExec. The guys at ResellersPanel, however, give you a free-of-cost reseller hosting account with all that included in it - a ready-for-use web site, a billing software platform and even support for your customers. Their reseller hosting program is without an analogue on the market, since they bill and support your clients for you, and allow you to resell our services without having to buy anything in advance yourself. Additionally, they allow you to resell all their services - shared hosting solutions, virtual servers, semi-dedicated and dedicated web hosting services. You can offer all of these to your customers using a ready-to-use template. The profit you earn is basically the difference between their wholesale price and the price you set yourself, so all you have to do is be a decent marketing tactician and attract customers. If that is a bit too innovative for you, they still offer shared cPanel reseller hosting packages, as the majority of the reseller hosting companies do, and you can always obtain a private virtual server or a dedicated hosting web server and partition it into website hosting accounts, which you can promote yourself. The bounties included in their cPanel reseller hosting plans will make your reseller life easier too - they offer ClientExec in order to bill and support your clients, a variety of web site layouts and even a charge-free eNom reseller account. We have datacenters in four countries - Australia, the United States of America and Great Britain. It is an immense opportunity for you to expand your web hosting business on three continents.
