Making money from reselling web hosting


I want to make money from reselling web hosting. I see two paths: Be an affiliate and get money from simple referrals. Be a reseller and buy services and resell them.
I think the most common misconception is that web hosting gives quick money. I think there are still alot of potential in web hosting so long as there is internet. However, hosting business do not come as easy as buying a reseller account and split it up. It requires a focus and target your audience right to ensure they feel confident in having his data stored in your servers.
If you want to make a living from it you would have to run hundreds or thousands of these services. Considering the required support effort this may not be feasible at all. Especially as a retailer of a reseller.
Affiliate program is more easy then Reseller program.
If u become Reseller,You will also need some sort billing and/or support software to manage your clients.
Web hosting is a business and needs to be aproached as such. You will not get rich quick, and it’s a lot of hard work. If you do not have the capital, hosting knowledge, or desire to run a business then I would recomend you to go with the affiliate route.
I will always recommend newcomers to start with an affiliate program. Reason being you need not worry so much about technical support and after sale support. On top of that it offers you an established name that need not much further advertising.
With an affiliate program you can quit easily, if it no longer suit your need. This is not easy for a reseller to quit a market because you have a string of clients that you have to pass them on.

Note that if you do purchase a reseller plan and resell them, you have to do your own support, sales and billing.

If you use refferal, than you don’t have to worry to much.

Successful website hosting reseller


A. what do you need to be a successful website hosting reseller?

B. want to learn how to actually make good revenue off a high visited site.

A good reseller must be good in sales.

For reselling in website hosting. You must know what your customer wants and need. You must also convince them that what they are getting is worth what they are paying.

I think most important is Support > Customer Service > Good Uptime

Good reseller should have responsive end doors support. Interesting pricing and competent sales managers.

For succesful reseller

A. You need a reliable reseller web hosting provider
B. Your high traffic website doesn’t guarantee you customers for your web hosting (visitors’ age group, interests, etc)

Web Developers can be successful Web Hosting resellers!

U r right

By becoming a reseller, not only can web developers create websites for
their clients, but they can provide their clients web hosting, as
another studio service. All you need to become a reseller, is to find a web
host who: offers multiple website hosting accounts; along with reseller
services; and then its up to you to host your clients’ web sites from
your own account. Your clients will be happy with the low fees you can
offer; and, you will have yourself a very profitable side business.

I think the most important is to ensure you sign up with a good and reliable web host yourself. Coz to resell web host is a responsibility. Someone trusted you before they part money to join your host.

If you really aim to be a successful reseller. Draw up a good business plan. Analyze the external (SWOT + Porter Five) and internal (Porter Value Chain) environment. Formulates the Corporate, Business and Functional strategies.

In this way, it is easy to keep track of your business directions and goal.

I m totally agree with u

payment handling for resellers clients


Hi, I’m new here. Am thinking of getting a reseller account to host some small sites that I design for friends and personal contacts.

How do I handle payment from my customers?

Its depending on different web hosting companies.

Hsphere control panel has the billing system within the ctrl panel.

cpwebhosting.net provides H-Sphere control panel with their web hosting account. There is a inbuild billing system within the H-Sphere ctrl panel

most resellers will have u settling ur own finances and invoicing.

Choose a web host which provide H-sphere control panel because with the use of H-Sphere control panel it is easy to maintain the payments of clients

Unlimited Wealth Creation Through Reseller Hosting


Hi,
Web hosting can be an exciting business start up for aspiring entrepreneurs. All you have to do to set up your business is become a hosting reseller, i.e., provide hosting facilities to website owners. Here as a business owner, you are buying space from a big hosting company, and redistributing the hosting space to other website owners.What u think? Put your suggestion here.

Yes, Reseller hosting business can be quite a profit making venture once you understand the figures and profit margins involved.
One can buy around 1000 MB space from a major web host at a cost of $25 per month. This 1000 MB space that you now own can in turn be redistributed to site owners who need space for uploading their site. Here you can give about 25 MB space for around $5 per month. Which means your monthly income comes to around $200 when you sell 40 hosting packages. Want more. some hosts allow you to oversell the space and do not charge you extra unless the actual usage of your account exceeds 1000MB. It is seen that a typical user uses less than half of the allotted web space. which means you can double or even triple sell your quota and make unlimited wealth.
Resellers are nothing but entrepreneurs acting as middlemen, offering you hosting services by leasing time and space from another Web host’s server rather than owning their own. Most of the times, the quality of services offered by resellers are so good that consumers do not even have the idea that they are dealing with resellers who do not have servers of their own. Resellers, since they can pick and choose their servers, are basically in a position to provide the customers with the best of services.
The profit margins in the business of reseller hosting is quite good and you can start on this exciting business venture even if you do not have the required expertise and access to funds for setting up the required infrastructure. Strange as it might sound, there are also times where a reseller can also be more scalable than a typical hosting firm. A true Web host is limited by its hardware; if a client suddenly requires an upgrade the host is not prepared for, the only way the host will be able to satisfy the customer is by upgrading its hardware – expensive and time consuming for both sides. The reseller host, however, can simply choose to locate with a different Web host that will better suit the customer’s needs.

VPS or reseller hosting?


Reseller hosting as an account in shared server environment. Simple as that, almost the same as shared hosting. But the difference between reseller hosting and shared hosting is that with reseller hosting, you can create multiple accounts of shared hosting. So, to choose VPS or reseller hosting? This is a big question for almost everyone.

VPS – A solution for dedicated server

VPS offers you the features of dedicated server but it’s more to a dedicated server being shared by a few other tenants. I know what you are thinking now. But bear in mind that I mentioned “a few” other tenants. Which means, it is not shared by as many other websites as a shared hosting in a physical server. A reliable hosting provider will have the maximum amount of tenants in a physical server to a certain degree so that the resources of the server can fully support the minimum resources allocated for every client. The most precious feature of VPS would be the root access. Every client will be provided a root access, hence, you can install anything that you like from softwares to Operating System so long it has proper licenses.This means you have the ability to install software which your provider doesn’t even have or provide to its other existing shared hosting or reseller hosting clients. Those who long for a peace of mind, will be happy to have owned a VPS because with VPS you are isolated from other clients’ VPS-es and regardless of how heavy their traffic is, it won’t affect your website. In addition, everyone is provided with a certain amount of CPU usage , RAM usage and bandwidth usage. Although their traffic has drained the amount of bandwidth, it will be the bandwidth allocated to them and has got nothing to do with you although they are your neighbours in the same server.

The above features of VPS seem tempting but do remember that you have to do all the installation yourself. You need to know a bit of server maintenance knowledge and also software-related stuffs. Although you can always refer your problem to your hosting provider, I believe you will be charged with an amount of fees.

Reseller Hosting – Ease your life!

Does reseller hosting offer you a better solution? Well, it depends on people. If you are a person who wants freedom of this and that, you might not be able to survive under reseller hosting. Reseller hosting is good in the sense that it’s more organized as everything is setup for you by your hosting provider. You are given the WHM (Web Host Manager) and with WHM you can customize the hosting plans (webspace, bandwidth and etc.) for your resold accounts. A resold account is just like any other shared hosting account, with a cPanel as its control panel under Linux platform. You can sell your resold accounts at your own price and some hosting providers offer the private label reseller plan(meaning you can have your own brand name, thus having your own nameservers). In other words, your resold clients will only know you as their hosting provider and won’t figure out you are reselling unless you tell them when they ask you. With reseller hosting, you are bound to what the hosting provider offers you, especially the softwares and applications. Hence, like I’ve mentioned in the first sentence, reseller hosting might not suit you if you want freedom. However, it’s useful if clients do not mind what the hosting providers offer them particularly in terms of applications. Imagine you don’t have to get yourself in with all the fuss of installing and configuring this and that. All you do is via the control panel provided to you, then you can start reselling already. In my opinion, reseller hosting is never a bad option and would still be a competitive option towards VPS. It is indeed reliable and useful when you think of the user-friendliness it provides to those who are not so familiar with hosting related stuff.

In general, it is widely speculated that in near future, VPS might take over the role of Reseller Hosting, but truth is yet to be known. Let those hosting fans decide for themselves which one holds to be a better option.

Why most non-resellers need a re-seller web hosting package


Now days I see that most of peoples looking for a Reseller web hosting account. Why most non-resellers need a re-seller web hosting package?

Every serious online entrepreneur should take a careful look at re-seller web hosting. Contrary to what many people think, these accounts are not strictly for web hosting re-sellers. Anybody who can pay the rates can get a re-seller account and enjoy the huge benefits and economy that go with it. So why would somebody who is not a re-seller need a re-seller web hosting account?

To start with, there are many online small businesses who have many websites and are paying for several hosting accounts. Usually, somebody starts out with one web hosting service, but as they expand they use others and quickly end up with half a dozen different ones. When you calculate the rates being paid to all the different hosts, it quickly adds up. The simple solution for most online entrepreneurs who find themselves in this situation is to get all their online resources under a single web host. A re-seller web hosting package usually turns out to be the most ideal solution.

Just compare the rates for yourself. One popular re-seller account package is priced at $35. This re-seller package allows you to host 100 domains. You are able to give every domain you host up to 20GB’s of monthly transfer and up to 2.5GB of storage. This is actually quite a competitive re-seller package but if you look around you can easily find a similar deal that is close to this or even better.

The other fear of touching re-seller packages has to do with the fear of selling that a vast majority of small business owners have. Many dread the thought of having to sell the extra hosting capacity that they will be stuck with. Actually with the savings many will end up making you do not need to resell the extra capacity you have. You can give it away to friends. And you can go further than that. It is fairly easy to ask your friends to sell the extra capacity on your behalf for the free hosting you have provided them. If you get 10 people paying you only $3.50cts per month you will already be enjoying free hosting for your site.

Re-seller web hosting accounts are economical for online entrepreneurs with growth potential because it allows for any sudden expansion in the future. Sudden unexpected upswings in business are getting more and more common for online businesses. Imagine ending up with a site that is suddenly over the bandwidth usage level and therefore not accessible because of a sudden increase in traffic usage. This is unfortunate because it can take some effort to generate the traffic in the first place.
