The 2 Sides of Reseller Web Hosting
When discussing the Reseller Web hosting market and which hosting company has the best Reseller plans, the discussion should be broken into two parts. There are really 2 disctinct types of customers in the Reseller market and 2 types of plans to accommodate them. The first customer is someone who owns multiple sites but doesn’t want a lot of separate Web hosting plans to keep up with. The second customer is the owner of a hosting company.
In the first case the customer is really looking for a large shared hosting plan that allows multiple domains. More frequently in the industry you see the term “Multi-Domain account” to refer to these plans. These customers can be Webmasters with a network of websites, Web designers, or a company that wants separate websites for their different brands. Most people doing business on the Internet have more then 1 website. Web hosting companies have recently taken notice to this and started offering “multiple domain” accounts. Before customers were left with the choice of a full blown Reseller plan, dedicated server, or multiple hosting accounts.
These accounts can also be less inexpensive then traditional Reseller plans because they do not need to offer all of the services such as Private label branding. They are essentially shared hosting accounts that allow for several domains.
The second customer is really looking for a turnkey business, a franchise of the parent hosting company if you will. These customers are hosting companies who do not want to carry the overhead of a datacenter or series of managed servers. Using a Reseller hosting plan allows a hosting company to have a complete professional hosting company without all of the traditional startup costs. Like anything, there are trade-offs versus a dedicated server, but for a small hosting company or startup it is an ideal solution. It allows them to focus on growing a customer base and not infrastructure issues.
These hosting plans are more expensive than shared and multi-domain hosting plans but offer extra 
services. They usually come with private label branding, private nameservers, marketing discounts, and forum boards with other resellers of the company.
As you can see from this discussion the Web hosting industry has many customers with different needs. The Reseller and shared hosting markets are converging the meet the demands of the customer with multiple websites.
Really a good info.

How to start reselling Web hosting business
I want to resell Web hosting, but weren’t exactly certain how to get started .
Advance thanx for any help
I have outline the some basic steps necessary to create a Web hosting business through reselling accounts that are provisioned in a reseller Web hosting data center.
Reselling Web Hosting –
Step 1: Get an Exceptional Domain Name.
Step 2: Finding and Setting up a Great Web Hosting Reseller Account.
Step 3: Set up a Great Website and Order Form.
Step 4: Driving Qualified Traffic to Your Website.
Step 5: Differentiate Your Offering
Getting a Exceptional Domain Name is very important. It may be obvious to you, but having the proper domain for your Web hosting venture is critical to your success. Why? There are two basic reasons: branding (recall) and search engine optimization. In order to sell Web hosting to your prospects, they first have to be able to find you. That is, they have to know that you offer Web hosting accounts for sale.
Unless you want to set up your own domain registration process, get connectivity from major bandwidth providers, and have a warehouse full of high end computers – you’ll want to get a reseller account from an established supplier. A good reseller account will offer tools (control panel) to manage multiple domains and accounts from one central location. That way, you can log in once and check the billing and provisioning status of all of your customer accounts.

Cluster hosting
Cluster hosting is become quite the rage in the hosting Reseller world.now, several hosting companies are now offering cluster hosting for resellers with a lot of advantages.What u think ?
Cluster hosting has a lot of advantages over normal hosting in terms of increased uptime and scalability depending on the setup. If one server or appliance is down it can simply switch over to a backup and your users will not even notice.

Top Ten Reseller Hosting Mistakes
Hi,
When someone start a Reseller web hosting business, he/she do some mistakes so keep in mind these mistakes when starting a web hosting company.
The 10 most common mistakes beginners make when starting as a web hosting company.
- Your Web Site Is Unprofessional Or Incomplete
- Placing Ads On Your Company Web Site
- Not Doing Research Before Picking A Host
- Spending Too Much Money At Start
- Not Starting With A 1-800 Number
- Not Signing Up With Free Hosting Directories
- Having Forums That Are Not Active
- Trying To Compete With Large Hosting Companies
- Not Doing Enough Research In General
- And Number Ten… Giving Up
Thanx for great info.
Do not sign up with the first reseller web hosting company you find! In order to conduct a reliable business the company hosting you has to be reliable as well. You need to do research on the companies you are looking at and decide based on your needs which one is best. Doing research also eliminates the possibility of signing up for a web host that doesn’t know what they are doing and has constant downtime. You don’t want to become discouraged dealing with a bad host and quit because of frustration.
Having a website that is unprofessional or incomplete is an incredibly common mistake when starting as a reseller. Your web site is your business presence and must reflect that. I see far too many hosts that do not have a professional design, misspell words, have broken links, and other problems that will hurt your chances of convincing clients to sign up once you actually get them to your page. How likely would you be to sign up for a service if the site had misspellings or broken links?
Reseller web Host also need to make sure your site is easy to navigate and clearly explains what you are selling. Make sure everything flows well and that a user can easily find a way to contact you, your company history, and so on. Just remember what you did to research the hosting company you signed up with and keep in mind that your users will be doing the same type of research.

For a new reseller web host,there is no need to start with a dedicated server or high end reseller plan, start small and expand when you need to. You will have to pay for that costly dedicated server or hosting plan for X months until you finally break even, a small reseller hosting package is much less and will work fine. Do you really need an online account and billing system? A simple order script will work when you are new and later when you get up to around twenty clients it might be time to add one.

What about PHP
Hi guys,
What do think about PHP? Will this language can help me in my web development.
Well, according to me, PHP, arguably is the most popular Web scripting language in the world. I think, it will surely help you in your web site development.
if you have worked with a language such as C or Perl in the past, you will find the going much easier.
I do have worked with C in the past, but as we all know this is not a web programming language, but the PHP is. But, my question is will this could provide me in storage of lot information, which I want to collect it by survey on Internet.
I am late in joining, but, I will say that PHP is designed to integrate well with databases, so for this, I this type of website, this would be best for development.
Yes, this is true, PHP is a language that has outgrown its name. It was originally conceived as a set of macros to help coders maintain personal home pages, and its name grew from its purpose. Since then, PHP’s capabilities have been extended, taking it beyond a set of utilities to a full-featured programming language, capable of managing huge database-driven online environments.
PHP is the most popular Apache module available, beating mod_ssl, Perl, and FrontPage.
I also wanted to know, how it works?
PHP officially known as PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor is a server-side scripting language often written in an HTML context. Unlike an ordinary HTML page, a PHP script is not sent directly to a client by the server; instead, it is parsed by the PHP engine. HTML elements in the script are left alone, but PHP code is interpreted and executed. PHP code in a script can query databases, create images, read and write files, talk to remote servers—the possibilities are endless. The output from PHP code is combined with the HTML in the script and the result sent to the user.
PHP is also installed as a command-line application, making it an excellent tool for scripting on a server. Many system administrators now use PHP for the sort of automation that has been traditionally handled by Perl or shell scripting.

Custom DNS Servers Is Important ?
Why Using Custom DNS Servers Is Important ?
The term “custom DNS server” refers to the name servers which you are using being branded by you instead of reflecting your host�s domain name or a generic name. Instead you use a domain name of your choice. Resellers should use custom DNS servers in order to brand their services and to hide the fact that they are receiving hosting from a larger company. It also makes moving to a new hosting company very easy in the event of problems.

There is no reason why you should not use custom DNS servers. It can even help you to find new clients. If anyone does a whois lookup on any of your client’s domains they will see ns1.YourDomainName.com and might visit your site.
