In addition to hosting resource-demanding Internet sites, there's another reason to get a virtual or a dedicated server for yourself - to launch your hosting company. This is an ever expanding business, because a growing number of people and businesses start their web presence, so that they need hosting space and a domain. If you have a website hosting server, you can create hosting plans then sell them, so that you can not only cover your expenses when you host your own sites on the server too, but you can also make a decent profit by owning a prosperous business. What you need for that is a server, billing software, that will be the connection between the reseller web site and your web space, and a business account with a payment processor like PayPal or 2CheckOut, so as to be able to receive Internet payments. The advantage of reselling server space over the use of an ordinary reseller program is the fact that your clients will have additional resources and you're able to set up the server-side software which their sites may need so as to function effectively. The latter isn't possible with a shared hosting reseller program, as you'll have certain limitations in this regard.
Reselling Options in VPS Hosting
If you acquire one of the powerful virtual private servers plans that we supply, we'll make it really easy for you to start a reseller business. We supply two website hosting Control Panels which will enable you to do this - cPanel and DirectAdmin. They both include a reseller and a client level, which means that you are able to make plans and start selling them without delay. For all of the cPanel-equipped servers, we also supply a free domain reseller account with eNom, one of the largest domain suppliers out there, that will save you the money that you will have to deposit if you sign up with them directly. In addition, we'll give you the powerful ClientExec - a multifunctional payment and support solution which works with all of the major payment processors. It'll allow you to create invoices, to set package deal prices and to offer ticket support to all your customers easily. All VPS plans come with full root-level access, that will provide you with full control of the server and will allow you to launch and manage a prosperous web hosting reseller business.
Reselling Options in Dedicated Web Hosting
We supply powerful Linux dedicated web hosting that will allow you to launch a reseller business in a couple of simple steps. Our packages are different with regard to price and system resources, and you'll be able to pick the most suitable one based on how many clients you want or expect to have. Since you'll have root-level access, you can change any setting or install any server-side software you'd like. There are three web hosting Control Panels you'll be able to select from on the order page - DirectAdmin, cPanel and Hepsia. You can use the first two, as they have both client and reseller back-ends, and with DirectAdmin you can even have resellers of your own. cPanel does not come with this functionality, but with every single dedicated server acquired with this Control Panel we supply two freebies - a domain reseller account with eNom, that is one of the largest domain registrars on the market, and ClientExec, a powerful billing and support platform that will enable you to provide ticket support, to set up web hosting packages and collect payments over the Internet.
