How does reseller hosting operate?
What is the customer base of the reseller web hosting service retailers?
It is comprised of web site designers or web design corporations dealing chiefly with site design solutions. Small ISPs, outstanding SEO webmasters and different Internet go-getters are also part of the hosting reseller picture.
Well-known reseller webspace hosting models
Presently, the most famous business model is the cPanel reseller web hositng service, where the reseller pays in advance for a particular reseller hosting plan (with specific amounts of space, bandwidth, hosted Top-Level Domains, and so on on a monthly basis (at wholesale rates). Then the reseller account is chopped into miniature shared site hosting packages, which are subsequently sold to the customers at retail prices determined by the reseller. The reseller's profit is calculated by subtracting the wholesale hosting price from the retail hosting price.
cPanel's third party billing transaction management software system
The cPanel-based reseller hosting must assume responsibility for the billing platform provision (a merchant account connected with a third party invoice transaction management platform is mandatory) and the 24x7 technical and sales support provision. The reseller also plays the role of a bond between the customers and the domain name registrar where the Top-Level Domains are in fact being registered, migrated or renewed on behalf of the clients (a domain name reseller account working with the invoicing platform is demanded too).
No domain, invoicing transaction and client support management GUIs in cPanel?!?
While on the subject, cPanel does not include any domain name registration, invoicing transaction and trouble ticket administration interfaces. The latter are part of the third party billing transaction management software system. Highly inspiring. And modernistic. An avant-garde twenty-first century invention: 2 client login locations (the cPanel site hosting CP itself and the invoice transaction/customer support/domain administration system). And this is simply the beginning...
Rare, yet better reseller web page hosting options
On very infrequent occasions you might be lucky to come across other quite lucrative cloud hosting reseller platforms, like the one created by ResellersPanel. There are no monthly reseller prepayments or installments. It's as plain as that: if a deal is accomplished, there is a charge, in all other cases - there isn't. Looks like with ResellersPanel there are no economic risks for the resellers. Our opinion is that ResellersPanel's program is perhaps way better than the now quite widespread cPanel hosting reseller setup. Read further to learn why.
ResellersPanel - the hazard-free reseller web space hosting model
First and foremost, unlike the cPanel-based reseller web hosting suppliers, ResellersPanel will not charge the reseller a single cent. Not till the reseller generates any new sales or renewals. Which is very reasonable, in fact. This lowers the financial risks to ground-zero degrees. With ResellersPanel's hosting reseller scheme, the reseller is not mixed up with monthly or annual prepayments, contributions, reseller fees or deposits in any way. While the well-known cPanel-based reseller webspace hosting model depends chiefly on monthly or annual prepayments and deposits, which suggests... much bigger financial risks. In contrast with ResellersPanel's reseller web space hosting modus operandi, the cPanel reseller web hosting scheme is not interested in whether the reseller has made any transactions or not - the monthly or annual reseller fees must be paid up without delay, i.e. have to be paid in advance. Full stop.
