All that you need to become a reseller, is to get an internet host who : offers multiple web site Hosting accounts ; with reseller services ; and then its down to you to host your customers ‘ sites from your own account. As an example, if you take out an account that permits up to six web sites ( or domains ), you need to use one of the domains for development of your own site ; and, still have five domains to allot to your customers sites. Ensure that, not only will your website host give you a control panel that includes full executive facilities to simply manage your multiple account, but that your host provides your customers with their own control panel too.
Most significantly your website host should give you the ability to “hide your web hosts identity” so clients are unaware of the fact that you are supplying an unrelated party service.
Ensure you can customise your customers control panel to fit your own needs. Ever heard the proverb “Penny-wise and Dollar-foolish”? Well bargain priced web site hosting could represent the ideal example of watching a jar full of cents while bucket heaps of bucks fly out the window. When I launched my first internet site ( back in the “dark ages” of 1997 ) I paid nearly $150 a month in hosting and information transference charges. I am clearly not the only one who felt that way, because all of a sudden an entire industry of “bargain” web hosts sprang up all around the web. 5 dollars a month sounds great, till you realize the quantity of data transference ( number of pages ) and bandwidth ( the quantity of information transfer your host permits in a specified period ) you get for that low price possibly hampers your capability to do business. 95 a month you get to host up to 6 independent web sites with a single account. They did shut me down when we had a reasonable level of achievement although I paid them an additional $300 to get what they called “maximum” bandwidth. They lately raised their acceptable information transfer, but their policy on how much bandwidth you need to use at a particular time appears non-existent. You do not need clients being unsatisfied with your hosting services, as this may reflect badly on your other services too.
