How can be a reseller?


Web hosting reselling is easy to get into and a can be a great way to make money from home, but it can also be a competitive market. By becoming a web hosting reseller, we don’t even need to have our own servers, we can buy space from large web hosting companies and sell it to our own customers.

Shop around for the best prices. Many well known web hosting companies offer wholesale space to resellers.

Choose a web hosting package. If it is a complete package, we will need to decide how we want to split it up. Once our package, set our prices.

Design our own website to sell the packages. We want people to know that we are a reliable web hosting seller and a professional looking website will send that message. If we can’t design the site ourself, hire a professional designer.

Market our website anywhere we can. Forum signatures and link exchanges are great and affordable places to begin. This is an important step because there is a lot of competition in web hosting reselling and ads are the only way to bring in new customers.

We can also use search engine optimization (SEO) techniques, so that our website will rank higher with major search engines.

Put atleast 25 percent of our profit back into our business to buy more space, advertise and update our website.

Myth of reseller hosting


A lot of people have considered getting into the reseller web hosting business because they heard it was an easy way to make a lot of money. If we’re thinking along these lines ourself, keep reading.Reseller web hosting is easy. With the various control panels available, even those who are practically phobic about technology can run their own reseller web hosting business.

Once the monthly fees from our customers cover the monthly fee we pay our hosting company, everything else is profit. So all we have to do is sit back and watch our bank account expand as the money comes rolling in. After all, we’re working for ourself, not somebody else, so we won’t have anyone on our back.

If that is what we think it is like to run a reseller web hosting business. Anyone who owns their own business will tell us that it is a lot of hard work, and that there is no such thing as fast, easy money. Owning a reseller web hosting business is no exception to this rule.

If someone we know is planning to go into the web hosting reseller business, and seems to think it will be a lot less work than whatever they’re doing now, we might want to hand them this article in addition to that one.

There are a lot of misconceptions about what is involved in running a reseller web hosting business.Our fledgling company will have a much better chance to take wing if we wipe these false notions out of our head.

Graphical user interfaces have been around for a long time, and they have proven their worth for people who are not quite as technologically inclined as our average.

The company offers a Web Host Manager control panel from which a user can handle more than fifty separate tasks for his business and his clients. It also offers a control panel for end users so that they can make some changes on their own accounts without bothering us, which should make our life a little easier.

one of the tasks the WHM letsus do is install Perl modules. Unless we know what they are, why we would want to install them, and what effect they will have, to know that we can do it isn’t particularly helpful.

One problem with GUI interfaces in general is that they can prevent us from doing things that we really do want to do, or make it more difficult than it needs to be. A control panel is simply a tool. It is not a be all and end all.

We find a hosting company from which we can get a reseller web hosting package for about some dollars a month. The package includes some GB of hard disk space, which is not exactly the easiest thing to find, but not impossible .We may decide to resell this space in 25 MB blocks at some dollars per month.

Selecting a proper reseller


If we’re a website owner, choosing a web host is one of the most important decisions we will make for our business. If we’re a reseller web host, that’s even more true. The services we can deliver will directly depend on the service our web host delivers. In effect, we’re going to be the middleman, so we’d better have someone backing us who will help us stay in business.

As a reseller web host, be looking for in a web host? In many cases, we should be looking for some of the same things our clients will be looking for. But we will find that we actually have less flexibility than they do, because we have a lot more riding on our web host.

As a reseller web host, our website and our ability to provide uptime is our business, period. And our potential customers will figure, by extension, if they have any problems getting through to our website, that we cannot provide good web hosting services.

Our customers will start complaining to us about their websites not working properly. And we, in turn, need to contact our web host.

We might not be the only one operating on a thin financial margin. Our web host might be using IDE instead of SCSI drives, or overloading its servers with too many accounts.

Our prospective web host is reliable before this happens? One way to judge is by whether they offer a guarantee. Some hosts will guarantee 99 percent uptime, and they back that up by refunding all or part of our monthly fee if they fall below that.

Another way to tell whether our prospective web host is reliable is to visit its support forums. Browse around for a while and get a feel for what kinds of complaints the company receives. We will also want to check out other forums.

Customers can and will be very blunt about whether or not we should use a particular web host we could very easily be our company that’s getting flamed and if we go with the same web hosting company that people are putting to the torch, our company might be getting raked over the coals a few months from now.
If we read about the kinds of problems others have been having with the web host we’re thinking about using, we can hopefully avoid them. If they’re bad enough, we will know that we need to avoid that web host entirely.
If we’re going to have clients that sell anything through their websites, ask our prospective web host about servers with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), MySQL, and shopping carts.

Shared vs reseller hosting


Shared and Reseller web hosting have many similarities, many web hosts offer both shared and reseller hosting. The main difference between the two are in the names shared, we are sharing resources, which is the same for reseller in a way but we can resell the server resources. We can create our own web hosting accounts and share our allocated server resources with our clients.

The host remains in control of their server and are responsible for updating server software and maintaining the server. The host will usually also provide support to the reseller, so if there are any issue or faults the reseller will be able to contact the host.

Most personal and small business users will have no use for a reseller account, a reseller account is useful to those users who have a number of web sites and want to save money, as a reseller account can be cheaper than purchasing multiple shared hosting account.

With a reseller account we can also sell hosting, so this can be a relatively cheap step into the hosting business. We have the flexibility of controlling our own clients, creating, suspending and terminating accounts. We also have the knowledge that the server is being maintained for us, so we only have to worry about our clients and web site.
We can create accounts when we need them and share the resources between our web sites easily. We can find reseller hosting accounts with plenty of bandwidth and disk space for around some dollars a month, which can be a big saving if we have a number of web sites needing hosting.
We also don’t have to worry about the maintenance of the server, since the web host should have this covered. We should also receive technical support included with our account. If we have plans to start to own web hosting business, a reseller account can be an easy first step in the hosting industry.

It is a relatively low cost solution, meaning we can concentrate primarily on building our business slowly and generate a steady monthly income. One of the biggest mistakes new hosts make is try to accomplish too much in a short period of time.
The disadvantages of Potential clients may not be totally confident purchasing a hosting account from a reseller, because we in affect are the middle man. If a problem arises with the server or a customers account, they need to contact we and if we are unable to deal with the problem ourself, we would in turn have to contact our host.
If we have high bandwidth or disk space requirements reseller hosting may not be the best solution, possibly a dedicated server would be better suited if we have the technical knowledge.

Go for reseller business


We probably know someone who has gone through reseller scenario, or more than likely we have been there ourself. We discover the Internet, and learn how easy it is to set up a website. we set up a personal one for ourself, and then another one for our business, buying different domain names.
Reseller De Hosting
Florida, US
We have a whole collection of domain names spread across several web hosting companies, each of them charging a monthly fee. we would like to find a way to cut those expenses.
We want to offer our clients something that will set us apart from all the rest of the HTML jockeys out there. If it could be a service for which we can charge and add to our bottom line, so much the better.
Business-Hosting
Miami Lakes, FL
We own a business that, for whatever reason, needs more than one domain name. Or, instead of owning the business, we’re the webmaster of the company, and need to handle those domain names.
Like the person who has innovated the Internet and found himself more involved with it than he might have originally intended, we would like to cut our expenses not to mention the hassle of dealing with more than one web hosting company.
Whether we are an owner of multiple domain names for business purposes, an Internet hobbyist whose domain name collection is now a little out of hand, or the owner of a business with a natural tie in to the Internet, we might find that becoming a reseller of web hosting services solves many of our problems.
We don’t need to be in the business of web hosting to be a web hosting reseller. Many web hosting companies offer reseller accounts for a price that suits the budget of a serious hobbyist, while providing professional service.
There are a lot of reasons to consider becoming a reseller of web hosting services. First of all, if we have more than one website and the total disk space we need is 500 MB or more, many web hosting providers have reseller programs that will offer us a significant discount on that amount of space.
Much space together under one host will cost less than the combined price of keeping several accounts with different hosts, even if those other hosts seem less expensive for single accounts.
If we offer Internet related services, providing web hosting under our own company name can be a great and profitable add on service. This step is a natural for website designers, but theirs is by no means the only kind of business that can benefit.

Control Panel – It is preferable to have full administrative control over our client’s web sites. Make sure that, not only does our Web host provide us with a control panel that includes full administrative facilities to easily manage our multiple account, but that our host provides our clients with their own control panel too.

Most importantly our web host should give us the facility to hide our Web hosts identity so clients are unaware that we are offering a third party service. Ensure that we can customize our clients control panel to suit our own requirements.
Terms and conditions – Terms and conditions are essential when offering any service, ensure that all our clients have a copy of our terms and conditions.
Many resellers forget to create their own terms and conditions, as they are often very time consuming to write. If we ask a Web host we will find that some of them will either let we copy theirs or they will just supply us with terms and conditions specifically written for this purpose.
Fast and reliable support – Fast and reliable, service and support, is essential, from our Web hosting company. If something happens to our client’s web site it is important to be able to get the problem solved as soon as possible.
Reselling can be a very profitable side business if we find the right host. It may take up some of our time, however, if we put the time and effort into providing a little bit extra in our services, not only will our clients be a lot happier we will have a rewarding total Web services business.

More about explanation about reseller


The term Reseller means to sell again i.e. to sell a product or service to the public or to an end user, especially as an authorized dealer, while making sure that we make a profit on the sale.

Reseller hosting is no different either, a reseller buys a Web hosting package from a hosting company and tries to sell it independently.

Normally as the customers increase, so does the profit margin for the reseller.Or, we can get some money by earning commissions from a hosting company. This happens when we refer potential customers to the hosting company.

Most web hosting companies try to outsource their services to resellers as it helps them to extend their business reach without the cost of marketing and sales and also helps them to concentrate on the business side of things.

As a reseller we can decide what kinds of services we can sell. We can provide shared, dedicated or co-location web hosting or merchant accounts, store fronts etc.If we go with hosting then it might be useful to offer some other hosting related services like domain names, search engines etc.
Business-Hosting
Miami Lakes, FL
The cost of becoming a reseller and the equipment and people required in order to be successful depends on many factors.If we just plan to earn commission by referring people to the hosting company by using the Internet, then we do not have to put up a lot of money, all we need is an Internet ready PC and an Internet connection.
For a small start up not a lot of money and resources are required. We can purchase a good reseller package from a hosting company by paying them some money upfront. All that is needed is a decent computer that can manage the accounts of customers and a good Internet connection.
It is advisable to start small if we are very new to the concept of web hosting and reselling. Then we can expand as we go on and start getting more and more customers in which case offering domain registration is also a very good way to make profits.
If you have the money and the experience then you can go as far as buying all the server equipment required, in which case you will also be responsible for all the server maintenance costs.
The option could be leasing a server as this will be cheaper than buying the server, but here as well we are responsible for all the maintenance and running costs of the server.
