Here are the (perhaps over-simplified) steps to establishing a reseller business:

1) Purchase the reseller package that meets the goals of your business

2) Know and understand your target market to locate your new customers

3) Create your own branded hosting packages

4) Decide your price

5) Sell hosting packages to your clients

6) Earn profit

Taking advantage of reseller hosting offers incredible benefits to your new or existing brand.  As a reseller you’ll:

• Get to act as a hosting company – make money hosting and creating websites.
• Easily make profits.
• Design your own hosting plans and packages that are tailored to your own business and clients.
• Host and bill your customers using your unique brand.
• Make independent cPanel control panels for each of your clients.
• Save money with its low initial start-up costs with the opportunity to upgrade later.

Reseller plans are designed for you to earn money and are often the least expensive and easiest way to start a hosting business.  By using one control panel, this option lets you set up, manage, and operate the back-end of websites, emails and domain management for your business as well as your clients.

Many customers may not have the expertise or background in this area and will be completely dependent on you for setup and changes to their service…allowing you, the reseller, to charge a bit more for this hands-on type of service.

With that said, since the web hosting provider handles the servers, your focus is the profits and managing your hosting customers.  This is an easy way to start making a profit from your web hosting business right away.

Yet as with any business venture, you must create your business plan, know your target audience, and implement a marketing strategy to reach your potential customers.

Below are some of the common features often included in Reseller packages:

• Disc Space
• Bandwidth
• Domain Hosting
• Ability to brand your own web hosting company with the hosting provider company unknown to your client (also known as “white label”)
• Latest cPanel control panel
• Manage your own plans and configure different accounts based on your needs
• Pass on features to your own clients such as email, control panel, additional scripts and monitoring tools
• Premium support (usually 24/7) offered by hosting provider

They will believe it’s you!  You see, you can run your own hosting business under your banner and brand without your clients knowing who your actual upstream hosting provider is.  This gives you total control in promoting your business with your name written all over it!

Nope.  Your provider will handle all the backend, “dirty” work, so you can focus on building your business.  Server hardware, connectivity, network infrastructure, hardware setup and maintenance, security and updates for your servers are all addressed by your web hosting provider.   It’s a good idea to check into these things as you do your research to ensure that you’ll receive the best tech support if certain issues arise…and they likely will

Absolutely…you can upgrade your reseller hosting account at any moment to expand with the demands of your business.  With i2-host, there are no contracts and a 45-day Money Back Guarantee!
