How does reseller hosting operate?
What is the customer base of the reseller web hosting service distributors?
It consists of web site designers or website design enterprises offering chiefly site design services. Small Internet Service Providers, enterprising Search Engine Optimization web architects and various online opportunists are also involved with the hosting reseller scene.
Popular reseller website hosting patterns
These days, the most popular marketing type is the cPanel reseller web hositng service, where the reseller pre-pays for a selected reseller website hosting plan (with certain quotas of data storage, bandwidth, hosted Top-Level Domains, and so on on a monthly basis (at wholesale prices). Then the reseller account is chopped into minute shared hosting plans, which are later sold to the clients at retail rates settled by the reseller. The reseller's profit is calculated by subtracting the wholesale hosting price from the retail hosting price.
cPanel's third party invoice transaction management software setup
The cPanel-based hosting reseller has to take care of the invoice transaction management platform provision (a merchant account connected with a 3rd party invoicing transaction management system is necessary) and the 24/7/365 technical and sales support system supply. The reseller also plays the role of a connection between the customers and the TLD registrar where the domain names are actually being registered, transferred or renewed on clients' behalf (a domains reseller account operating with the invoicing transaction management platform is compulsory too).
No domain name, billing transaction and trouble ticket management tools in cPanel?!?
By the way, cPanel does not provide any domain name registration, invoice transaction and trouble ticket management tools. The latter belong to the 3rd party invoice transaction software system. Extremely exciting. And trendy. An advanced twenty-first century solution: 2 client login places (the cPanel website hosting CP itself and the invoice/technical support/domain management GUI). And that's merely for starters...
Rare, yet better reseller site hosting alternatives
In extremely rare cases you might be fortunate to find other truly profitable cloud reseller hosting programs, like the one devised by ResellersPanel. There aren't any monthly reseller fees or installments. It's as plain as that: if a sale is accomplished, there is a fee, in all other cases - there is not. Looks like with ResellersPanel there are no monetary perils for the resellers. Our opinion is that ResellersPanel's system is perhaps way better than the presently very widespread cPanel hosting reseller model. Read on to comprehend why.
ResellersPanel - the jeopardy-free reseller webspace hosting model
First of all, unlike the cPanel reseller web site hosting firms, ResellersPanel will not tax the reseller a single cent. Not until the reseller makes any new sales or renewals. Which is very logical, actually. This diminishes the commercial risk to ground-zero degrees. With ResellersPanel's reseller hosting platform, the reseller is not mixed up with monthly or annual prepayments, donations, reseller fees or deposits in any way. Whereas the famous cPanel reseller webspace hosting setup is based exclusively on monthly or annual down payments and taxes, which signifies... much larger financial risks. Unlike ResellersPanel's reseller website hosting model, the cPanel reseller hosting scheme does not care whether the reseller has generated any transactions or not - the monthly or annual reseller subscriptions have to be paid in a punctual manner, i.e. must be prepaid. Period.
US, European and Australian clustered web site hosting packages
ResellersPanel is not merely a hazard-free reseller site hosting solution. ResellersPanel supplies REAL CLUSTERED WEB HOSTING solutions for reselling. Everywhere else, there is some limited evidence for the presence of a cloud hosting environment. The cloud hosting plans the resellers can custom create and sell under their hosting brands are available at 4 data center locations: in the United States, in the United Kingdom, in Sweden and in Australia! How many cPanel-based reseller website hosting providers deliver multi-continent datacenter location options? How many cPanel web hosting companies offer cloud hosting services to the resellers and to their clientele?
Private virtual server, semi-dedicated server web hosting and dedicated web hosting reseller plans
How many reseller web space hosting distributors, apart from ResellersPanel, allow their resellers to offer virtual servers, semi-dedicated hosting and dedicated hosting at very competitive prices? Hepsia, the industry-leading hosting CP, is also added there, by default, at no extra or added price. Unlimited hosted domains, Secure Shell and complete root-level access are also incorporated in the feature-rich web server packages. Moreover, the resellers can also sell more than fifty generic and country code top-level domain names and SSL certificates to their clients.
