How does reseller website hosting function?
What is the customer base of the reseller webspace hosting service merchants?
It involves site designers or web design enterprises providing mostly website design solutions. Small ISPs, big-time SEO web architects and various Internet go-getters are also part of the hosting reseller scene.
Widespread reseller web space hosting trends
Now, the most widespread business type is the cPanel reseller web hositng solution, where the reseller pays in advance for a given reseller website hosting account (with certain quotas of storage space, traffic, hosted TLDs, and so on on a monthly basis (at wholesale rates). Then the reseller package is divided into mini shared web space hosting packages, which are subsequently sold to the clients at retail rates specified 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 transaction management software system
The cPanel-based hosting reseller has to take care of the billing system provision (a merchant account integrated into a third party billing transaction management system is wanted) and the 24x7x365 client and sales support system provision. The reseller also plays the role of a bridge between the customers and the TLD registrar where the domain names are in fact being registered, relocated or renewed on clients' behalf (a domain reseller account functioning with the invoicing transaction management platform is required as well).
No domain, invoice transaction and client support management sections in cPanel?!?
While on the subject, cPanel does not have any domain name registration, billing transaction and client support administration user interfaces. These are included in the third party billing software platform. Extremely impressive. And trendy. A cutting-edge 21st century invention: two user login places (the cPanel site hosting CP itself and the billing transaction/ticket support/domain management software system). And that is only the beginning...
Rare, yet better reseller web hosting alternatives
On very rare occasions you might be lucky to come across other very lucrative cloud hosting reseller setups, such as the one provided by ResellersPanel. There are no monthly reseller charges or installments. It's as simple as that: if a purchase is accomplished, there is a fee, in all other occasions - there is not. Looks like with ResellersPanel there aren't any financial hazards for the resellers. Our opinion is that ResellersPanel's operating model is probably way better than the presently quite widespread cPanel hosting reseller platform. Read on to uncover why.
ResellersPanel - the jeopardy-free reseller hosting model
First of all, as opposed to the cPanel reseller web space hosting firms, ResellersPanel will not tax the reseller a single dime. Not until the reseller generates any new sales or renewals. Which is very logical, in fact. This diminishes the monetary risk to ground-zero degrees. With ResellersPanel's hosting reseller system, the reseller is not involved with monthly or annual prepayments, contributions, reseller taxes or installments whatsoever. While the popular cPanel reseller webspace hosting scheme is dependent largely on monthly or annual prepayments and subscriptions, which suggests... much higher economic risks. In contrast with ResellersPanel's reseller webspace hosting setup, the cPanel reseller web hosting setup is not interested in whether the reseller has generated any sales or not - the monthly or annual reseller fees have to be paid up punctually, in other words have to be paid in advance. Period.
American, European and Aussie cloud webspace hosting accounts
ResellersPanel is not merely a danger-free reseller site hosting system. ResellersPanel offers REAL CLUSTERED WEBSITE HOSTING plans for reselling. Everywhere else, there is some limited evidence for the existence of a cloud hosting environment. The cloud hosting packages the resellers can custom build and market under their web space hosting brands are available at 4 data center facility sites: in the United States, in the United Kingdom, in Sweden and in Australia! How many cPanel-based reseller web site hosting traders supply multi-continent data center facility site choices? How many cPanel web hosting companies offer cloud hosting services to the resellers and to their clients?
VPS web server hosting, semi-dedicated web server and dedicated hosting server reseller solutions
How many reseller web space hosting traders, apart from ResellersPanel, allow their resellers to offer virtual servers, semi-dedicated servers and dedicated hosting at extremely competitive rates? Hepsia, the industry's best hosting Control Panel, is included there as well, by default, at no supplementary or additional charge. Unmetered hosted domains, SSH and complete root-level access are also added in the function-rich server web hosting packages. Plus, the resellers can also provide more than fifty generic and country code top-level domain names and SSL certificates to their customers.
