Aside from hosting resource-demanding Internet sites, there's another reason to acquire a virtual or a dedicated server for yourself - to create your website hosting company. This is a constantly growing business, considering that an increasing number of people and businesses start their world wide web presence, so that they need website hosting space and a domain name. If you have a server, you can create hosting package deals and then sell them, so that you can not only cover your own expenses in case you host your personal sites on the server as well, but you can also make a decent profit by operating a profitable business. What you need for that is a server, billing software, that will be the connection between the reseller site and your web space, and a business account with a payment processor such as PayPal or 2CheckOut, in order to be able to receive web payments. The benefit from reselling server space over the usage of a standard reseller program is that your customers will have a lot more system resources and you are able to install the server-side software that their sites may need to function properly. The latter will not be possible with a shared website hosting reseller program, because you will have some restrictions in this regard.
Reselling Options in Dedicated Hosting
Using a dedicated server from our company, you'll get everything you need to start a successful website hosting business almost instantly. We have several different packages, to give you a chance to choose the most appropriate one when it comes to the resources that you'll need and the initial budget that you have to start with. All of the servers come with full root access, that will enable you to install anything your customers may need for their sites. One of the two web hosting Control Panel alternatives that we provide are suitable for launching a reseller business - cPanel. It has client and reseller levels and various advantages. When you order the server with cPanel, you can't only have direct clients, but also sub-resellers. If you get your server with cPanel, on the other hand, you will obtain an eNom domain name reseller account and the ClientExec billing and support software, which will enable you to offer ticket support and to accept web-based payments.
