Aside from hosting resource-demanding websites, there's a further reason to acquire a virtual or a dedicated server for yourself - to launch your web hosting company. This is a constantly growing business, because more and more people and businesses start their online presence, so that they need website hosting space and a domain name. If you have a website hosting server, you will be able to create hosting deals then sell them, so that you can not only cover your own expenses when you host your own websites on the server too, but you will also make a great profit by operating a lucrative business. What you need for that is a server, payment software, that will be the link between the reseller website and your web space, and a business account with a payment processor for example PayPal or 2CheckOut, so as to be able to receive web payments. The advantage of reselling server space over the use of a standard reseller program is the fact that your customers will have considerably more system resources and you'll be able to install the server-side software which their websites may need to operate effectively. The aforementioned is not possible with a shared website hosting reseller program, as you will have certain limitations in this regard.
Reselling Options in VPS
The VPS packages which we supply include several website hosting Control Panels to choose from and two of them are suitable for creating your own web hosting business, due to the fact that they have a customer plus a reseller side. DirectAdmin and cPanel are one of the most preferred Control Panels to choose from and they will allow you to set up everything quickly. All of the cPanel-equipped servers come with two more bonuses for free - a domain name reseller account with eNom - one of the leading registrars, which doesn't involve the deposit that is normally required in case you sign up directly with them, also a billing/support solution called ClientExec, which will connect your website to the cPanel reseller account and that will allow you to bill your clients and to offer them support through an incorporated ticketing system. The full root-level access to the virtual server will allow you to do nearly anything you'll need, so starting and managing a prosperous website hosting firm of your own will be a quick and simple project.
Reselling Options in Dedicated Hosting
The dedicated server plans that we provide will allow you to create your own web hosting company quickly. They feature more than enough computing power, physical memory and disk space to support a a really large number of clients, whatever the kind of Internet sites they run. You'll also have root access to the server, so you can add any server-side app. Our plans come with three different website hosting Control Panels and two of them - cPanel and DirectAdmin, are more than appropriate for your new hosting business, as they have two separate levels - client and reseller. When you acquire the server with cPanel, we'll also supply you with a domain name reseller account along with a billing/support solution called ClientExec at zero cost, therefore you will be totally independent and you will have full control over what is going on with your server and with the customers' Internet sites. If you'd like to use another approach, however, DirectAdmin will enable you to have resellers of your own who can do the job of finding the end customers, while they pay for the reseller package.
