How does reseller web hosting work?
What is the client base of the reseller site hosting service firms?
It includes site designers or site design corporations providing mainly web design services. Small ISPs, outstanding Search Engine Optimization web developers and various web go-getters are also involved with the hosting reseller niche.
Popular reseller web space hosting trends
These days, the most widespread marketing model is the cPanel reseller web hositng solution, where the reseller pre-pays for a preferred reseller web hosting account (with certain amounts of storage space, bandwidth, hosted top-level domain names, and so on on a monthly basis (at wholesale prices). Then the reseller account is cut into minute shared webspace hosting plans, which are later sold to the clients at retail prices picked by the reseller. The reseller's profit is formed by the difference between the wholesale and the retail hosting prices.
cPanel's third party billing transaction management software platform
The cPanel-based reseller hosting must assume responsibility for the invoicing system provision (a merchant account integrated into a 3rd party billing platform is compulsory) and the 24/7 client and sales support system provision. The reseller also plays the role of a bond between the clients and the top-level domain name registrar where the top-level domain names are in fact being registered, transferred or renewed on behalf of the clients (a domain reseller account operating with the invoice transaction management platform is demanded too).
No domain name, invoice transaction and customer support administration user interfaces in cPanel?!?
While on the subject, cPanel does not include any domain name registration, invoice transaction and customer support administration interfaces. Those belong to the 3rd party invoice management software system. Quite inspiring. And ingenious. An avant-garde 21st century solution: two client login locations (the cPanel website hosting CP itself and the invoice/trouble ticket/domain name management software). And that is only the beginning...
Rare, yet better reseller web site hosting alternatives
On very rare occasions you might be fortunate to come across other highly rewarding cloud reseller hosting setups, such as the one conceived by ResellersPanel. There are no monthly reseller charges or deposits. It's as simple as that: if a deal is made, there is a fee, in all other occasions - there isn't. Looks like with ResellersPanel there aren't any financial risks for the resellers. Our opinion is that ResellersPanel's operating model is probably way better than the now very widespread cPanel hosting reseller model. Read further to see why.
ResellersPanel - the danger-free reseller web hosting system
To begin with, as opposed to the cPanel reseller web site hosting providers, ResellersPanel will not charge the reseller a single dime. Not until the reseller generates any new transactions or renewals. Which is quite logical, actually. This reduces the commercial risk to ground-zero degrees. With ResellersPanel's reseller hosting scheme, the reseller is not involved with monthly or annual prepayments, subscriptions, reseller charges or deposits whatsoever. While the famous cPanel reseller web site hosting model depends chiefly on monthly or annual down payments and taxes, which signifies... much bigger fiscal risks. Unlike ResellersPanel's reseller webspace hosting setup, the cPanel reseller hosting setup does not care whether the reseller has accomplished any sales or not - the monthly or annual reseller charges have to be paid in a timely fashion, i.e. must be prepaid. Period.
US, European and Australian clustered site hosting services
ResellersPanel is not merely a jeopardy-free reseller web hosting system. ResellersPanel distributes ACTUAL CLUSTERED WEB PAGE HOSTING accounts for reselling. Elsewhere, there is some limited evidence for the availability of a cloud hosting platform. The cloud hosting accounts the resellers can custom build and promote under their hosting trademarks are available at 4 datacenter sites: in the United States, in the United Kingdom, in Sweden and in Australia! How many cPanel reseller web hosting retailers deliver multi-continent datacenter location alternatives? How many cPanel web hosting companies provide cloud hosting services to the resellers and to their clients?
VPS, semi-dedicated web server and dedicated hosting reseller packages
How many reseller website hosting companies, except ResellersPanel, allow their resellers to sell VPS, semi-dedicated and dedicated servers at extremely competitive rates? Hepsia, the industry's best web hosting CP, is included there as well, by default, at no extra or added price. Unmetered hosted domains, SSH and complete root-level access are also incorporated in the function-rich web server plans. Besides, the resellers can also offer over fifty generic and country code top-level domains and digital certificates to their clients.
