What Does Hosting Reseller Stand for?

The Internet has become a vital element in everyone's everyday life. Everyone would like to possess their own site, whether for pleasure, for socialization or commercial purposes. The hosting business niche is blossoming. Why don't you take a chunk of the pie yourself?

What can you resell?

Most companies deliver Linux-driven web hosting solutions. Linux is a multi-user platform, which is very applicable for both dedicated and shared hosting servers. The usual hosting reseller platform that corporations provide is the cPanel one, because the cPanel web hosting CP user interface offers 3 access levels - root (reserved for the web hosting distributor itself), reseller (that is where you come in) and user (for your customers). Although some do permit overselling, in the majority of the cases you are bound by the hard disk storage space and monthly bandwidth quota limitations of your hosting reseller 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 packages or dedicated server accounts

The bigger part of the hosting distributors offering VPS packages and dedicated package do not actually object if you use the virtual private web server or the dedicated hosting server to resell website hosting accounts. If you decide to resell web hosting accounts availing of a dedicated server, you will have full control over the whole physical machine, the possibility to make any configuration adjustments you want and the opportunity to keep an eye on all the account holders hosted on it. The virtual servers offer comparable options, but in most instances you cannot perform any kernel modifications or changes, which involve kernel module rearrangement. The finest Control Panel software that allows you to resell hosting accounts utilizing your dedicated web server or virtual web server is, again, cPanel, even though you can also use DirectAdmin, depending on which CP tool lives up to your requirements better.

What do you need to be a reseller?

In order to become a reseller and begin your hosting business, you require a website, an invoicing software system, a merchant account with a payment processor such as PayPal, WorldPay, MoneyBookers, 2CheckOut, etc., and an SSL certificate to guarantee that your clients' details are secure when they make payments via your website when ordering a web hosting product. Well-known billing software platforms that you can utilize are WHMCS, AWBS and ClientExec. The guys at ResellersPanel, however, offer you a cost-free hosting reseller account with all that included in it - a ready-for-use web site, an invoicing system and even technical support for your customers. Their hosting reseller program is unique on the marketplace, since they charge and support your customers on your behalf, and permit you to resell our services without having to purchase anything upfront yourself. Furthermore, they permit you to sell all their services - shared website hosting plans, VPS servers, semi-dedicated and dedicated web hosting plans. You can offer all of these to your clients via a turn-key design template. The profit you gain is in fact the difference between their wholesale price and the price you name yourself, so all you need to do is be a decent marketing strategist and tempt customers. If that is a bit too bold for you, they still deliver shared cPanel hosting reseller plans, as most reseller hosting providers do, and you can always get a Virtual Private Server or a dedicated web server and slice it into web hosting accounts, which you can offer yourself.
