How does reseller website hosting operate?
What is the customer base of the reseller webspace hosting solution vendors?
It is comprised of web page designers or design companies providing mostly web site design services. Small-sized ISPs, very influential Search Engine Optimization web developers and different web opportunists are also involved with the hosting reseller scene.
Widespread reseller website hosting types
Currently, the most popular business type is the cPanel reseller web hositng solution, where the reseller pre-pays for a preferred reseller web hosting plan (with certain quotas of space, bandwidth, hosted domains, etc. on a monthly basis (at wholesale rates). Then the reseller account is split into miniature shared site hosting plans, which are subsequently sold to the customers at retail rates fixed by the reseller. The reseller's profit is formed by the difference between the wholesale and the retail hosting prices.
cPanel's 3rd party billing software platform
The cPanel-based hosting reseller has to assume responsibility for the invoicing system supply (a merchant account connected with a third party invoicing platform is mandatory) and the round-the-clock client and sales support system provision. The reseller also plays the role of a bridge between the clients and the domain registrar where the domain names are in fact being registered, migrated or renewed on behalf of the clients (a domain name reseller account working with the invoicing system is mandatory too).
No domain name, invoicing and customer support administration interfaces in cPanel?!?
While on the subject, cPanel does not include any domain name registration, billing transaction and customer support management user interfaces. The latter are included in the 3rd party invoice transaction software platform. Highly impressive. And trendy. A cutting-edge twenty-first century solution: two customer login places (the cPanel web page hosting CP itself and the invoice/customer support/domain administration system). And this is just the beginning...
Rare to find, yet better reseller web space hosting options
In extremely rare circumstances you might be lucky to chance on other quite lucrative cloud hosting reseller platforms, such as the one concocted by ResellersPanel. There are no monthly reseller prepayments or deposits. It's as simple as that: if a deal is accomplished, there is a charge, in all other occasions - there is not. Looks like with ResellersPanel there aren't any financial dangers for the resellers. We believe that ResellersPanel's operating model is perhaps way better than the currently very well-known cPanel hosting reseller scheme. Read further to find the reason why.
ResellersPanel - the danger-free reseller web page hosting platform
First of all, as opposed to the cPanel reseller web hosting merchants, ResellersPanel will not tax the reseller a single dime. Not unless the reseller accomplishes any new transactions or renewals. Which is quite reasonable, in fact. This reduces the fiscal risk to ground-zero degrees. With ResellersPanel's reseller hosting model, the reseller is not mixed up with monthly or annual prepayments, contributions, reseller charges or part payments whatsoever. Whereas the famous cPanel reseller web hosting scheme is based only on monthly or annual down payments and fees, which means... much bigger economic risks. Unlike ResellersPanel's reseller webspace hosting scheme, the cPanel reseller web hosting model does not care whether the reseller has generated any sales or not - the monthly or annual reseller charges must be paid up in a timely manner, in other words must be paid up front. Full stop.
North American, European and Australian clustered hosting plans
ResellersPanel is not merely a danger-free reseller web site hosting platform. ResellersPanel offers REAL CLOUD SITE HOSTING packages for reselling. Elsewhere, there is some partial evidence for the availability of a cloud web hosting environment. The cloud hosting plans the resellers can custom create and trade on behalf of their site hosting brand names are available at 4 data center locations: in the United States, in the United Kingdom, in Sweden and in Australia! How many cPanel reseller web space hosting companies offer multi-continent datacenter site options? How many cPanel web hosting companies provide cloud hosting services to the resellers and to their clients?
VPS web hosting, semi-dedicated server hosting and dedicated web server hosting reseller accounts
How many reseller web hosting providers, save ResellersPanel, allow their resellers to promote Virtual Private Servers, semi-dedicated hosting and dedicated hosting at extremely attractive rates? Hepsia, the industry-leading web hosting CP, is included there as well, by default, at no supplementary or further expense. Unmetered hosted domain names, SSH and full server root access are also included in the feature-rich web server hosting packages. What is more, the resellers can also provide more than 50 generic and country code top-level domain names and SSL certificates to their customers.
