How does reseller hosting work?
What is the customer base of the reseller site hosting service traders?
It is comprised of website designers or web site design firms providing mostly design solutions. Small-size Internet Service Providers, very influential Search Engine Optimization webmasters and various web opportunists are also part of the hosting reseller scene.
Popular reseller hosting models
As of now, the most widespread business model is the cPanel reseller web hositng service, where the reseller pays in advance for a preferred reseller web site hosting package (with fixed quotas of disk space, traffic, hosted top-level domain names, etc. on a monthly basis (at wholesale prices). Then the reseller plan is split into tiny shared hosting accounts, which are later sold to the clients at retail rates fixed by the reseller. The reseller's revenue is formed by the difference between the wholesale and the retail hosting prices.
cPanel's third party billing software system
The cPanel-based reseller hosting must take care of the invoicing transaction management system supply (a merchant account integrated into a third party invoicing transaction management system is required) and the 24/7 technical and sales support provision. The reseller also plays the role of a connection between the clients and the top-level domain name registrar where the Top-Level Domains are actually being registered, moved or renewed on behalf of the clients (a domains reseller account operating with the invoicing transaction management system is compulsory too).
No domain name, invoicing and technical support management GUIs in cPanel?!?
While on the subject, cPanel does not furnish any domain registration, invoicing and trouble ticket administration user interfaces. These are incorporated in the third party invoice management software. Quite inspiring. And creative. A leading-edge twenty-first century invention: 2 customer login places (the cPanel Control Panel itself and the billing transaction/ticket support/domain management interface). And that's only for starters...
Rare, yet better reseller hosting alternatives
On very infrequent occasions you might be fortunate to discover other highly lucrative cloud reseller hosting schemes, like the one developed by ResellersPanel. There are no monthly reseller prepayments or deposits. It's as plain as that: if a sale is accomplished, there is a charge, in all other occasions - there isn't. Looks like with ResellersPanel there are no monetary risks for the resellers. We believe that ResellersPanel's mode of operation is probably way better than the currently very popular cPanel hosting reseller scheme. Read further to learn why.
ResellersPanel - the risk-free reseller site hosting model
First of all, as opposed to the cPanel-based reseller webspace hosting wholesalers, ResellersPanel will not tax the reseller a single cent. Not until the reseller accomplishes any new deals or renewals. Which is very reasonable, as a matter of fact. This reduces the fiscal risk to ground-zero degrees. With ResellersPanel's hosting reseller system, the reseller is not involved with monthly or annual down payments, donations, reseller taxes or part payments in any way. While the famous cPanel-based reseller web page hosting setup is based exclusively on monthly or annual down payments and fees, which means... much larger commercial risks. In contrast with ResellersPanel's reseller web page hosting modus operandi, the cPanel reseller web hosting scheme is not interested in whether the reseller has accomplished any sales or not - the monthly or annual reseller subscriptions have to be paid out punctually, i.e. have to be paid beforehand. Period.
US, European and Australian cloud web page hosting services
ResellersPanel is not solely a risk-free reseller webspace hosting solution. ResellersPanel provides REAL CLOUD WEB PAGE HOSTING solutions for reselling. Everywhere else, there is some limited evidence for the existence of a cloud web hosting platform. The cloud hosting accounts the resellers can custom create and sell under their website hosting brand names are available at 4 data center sites: in the United States, in the United Kingdom, in Sweden and in Australia! How many cPanel reseller website hosting wholesalers present multi-continent datacenter location choices? How many cPanel web hosting companies offer cloud hosting services to the resellers and to their customers?
VPS web server, semi-dedicated server hosting and dedicated hosting server reseller plans
How many reseller web page hosting firms, except ResellersPanel, permit their resellers to sell VPS hosting, semi-dedicated servers and dedicated servers at very competitive prices? Hepsia, the industry's best hosting CP, is also added there, by default, at no extra or additional price. Unmetered hosted domain names, SSH and full server root privileges are also incorporated in the feature-rich web server hosting accounts. Furthermore, the resellers can also provide over fifty generic and country code top-level domains and SSL certificates to their clientele.
