Definition of Reseller Hosting

The Internet has become an indispensable staple in everybody's everyday agenda. Everybody would like to establish their very own personal website, whether for entertainment, for socialization or business purposes. The website hosting business is flourishing. Why not take a piece of the pie yourself?

What can you offer?

Most firms provide Linux-driven hosting services. Linux is a multitasking Operating System, which is extremely suitable for both dedicated hosting and shared web hosting servers. The usual reseller hosting platform that firms provide is the cPanel one, as the cPanel hosting Control Panel GUI allows 3 levels of access - root (designated for the hosting company itself), reseller (that is where you enter) and user (for your clients). Although some do allow overselling, in the majority of the instances you are bound by the storage space and bandwidth limitations of your reseller hosting plan. It is like a sphere, which you fill up with tinier spheres - when you have filled it all up, you cannot add more.

Offer VPS web hosting or dedicated web hosting servers

The majority of the hosting corporations providing VPS web hosting and dedicated web hosting do not actually disapprove if you utilize the virtual private web hosting server or the dedicated hosting web server to sell website hosting accounts. If you choose to sell web hosting accounts availing of a dedicated server, you will have full control over the entire physical server, the opportunity to carry out any config adjustments you wish and the ability to keep an eye on all the account holders hosted on it. The virtual hosting servers offer similar specs, but in the majority of the instances you cannot perform any kernel changes or modifications, which necessitate kernel module rearrangement. The finest web hosting Control Panel graphical user interface that allows you to sell website hosting accounts using your dedicated web server or VPS server is, once again, cPanel, even though you can also use DirectAdmin, depending on which Control Panel software tool fits your anticipations better.

What do you need to be a hosting reseller?

In order to become a hosting reseller and begin your reseller hosting business, you demand a website, an invoicing platform, a merchant account with an online payment processor like PayPal, WorldPay, MoneyBookers, 2CheckOut, etc., and a Secure Sockets Layer certificate to guarantee that your customers' information is defended when they make payments via your website when buying a web hosting service. Well-known invoicing systems that you can utilize are WHMCS, AWBS and ClientExec. The guys at ResellersPanel, however, offer you a cost-free reseller hosting account with all that included in it - a ready-to-use web site, a billing software platform and even technical support for your customers. Their reseller hosting program is unique on the market, since they bill and support your clients on your behalf, and allow you to sell our web hosting solutions without the need to purchase anything beforehand yourself. In addition, they permit you to sell all their hosting products - shared hosting plans, VPS servers, semi-dedicated and dedicated web hosting packages. You can sell all of these to your customers using a ready-for-use web page template. The profit you make is basically the difference between their wholesale price and the price you determine yourself, so all you have to do is be a good marketing tactician and attract customers. If that is a little too bold for you, they still deliver shared cPanel reseller hosting plans, as most reseller hosting providers do, and you can always order a virtual hosting server or a dedicated web hosting server and slice it into website hosting accounts, which you can promote yourself. The extras offered by their cPanel reseller hosting packages will make your reseller life easier as well - they offer ClientExec in order to charge and support your customers, a bunch of web templates and even a charge-free eNom reseller account.
