How does reseller website hosting function?
What is the client base of the reseller site hosting service retailers?
It is comprised of designers or website design firms providing mainly website design solutions. Small ISPs, big-time SEO webmasters and various Internet opportunists are also part of the hosting reseller picture.
Famous reseller hosting models
Currently, the most widespread marketing model is the cPanel reseller web hositng service, where the reseller pre-pays for a selected reseller web hosting package (with certain amounts of web space, traffic, hosted Top-Level Domains, etc. on a monthly basis (at wholesale prices). Then the reseller account is split into tiny shared webspace hosting accounts, 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 3rd party billing transaction management software platform
The cPanel-based hosting reseller has to assume responsibility for the billing platform provision (a merchant account connected with a third party invoice transaction management system is obligatory) and the 24x7x365 customer and sales support provision. The reseller also plays the role of a connection between the customers and the TLD registrar where the domain names are actually being registered, moved or renewed on behalf of the clients (a domain reseller account functioning with the billing transaction management platform is obligatory as well).
No domain name, invoicing and trouble ticket management interfaces in cPanel?!?
While on the subject, cPanel does not supply any domain name registration, invoicing and customer support management sections. The latter are included in the 3rd party billing transaction management software. Very impressive. And inventive. A cutting-edge 21st century invention: 2 user login places (the cPanel web hosting Control Panel itself and the invoicing transaction/trouble ticket/domain name management tool). And that's simply the beginning...
Rare to find, yet better reseller hosting alternatives
On very infrequent occasions you might be lucky to come across other very rewarding cloud hosting reseller programs, such as the one developed 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 cases - there is not. Looks like with ResellersPanel there are no fiscal dangers for the resellers. Our opinion is that ResellersPanel's model is perhaps way better than the currently very widespread cPanel hosting reseller platform. Read further to learn why.
ResellersPanel - the danger-free reseller web hosting system
To begin with, as opposed to the cPanel reseller website hosting retailers, ResellersPanel will not charge the reseller a single cent. Not till the reseller generates any new sales or renewals. Which is quite logical, in fact. This lowers the financial risk to ground-zero degrees. With ResellersPanel's hosting reseller program, the reseller is not involved with monthly or annual down payments, contributions, reseller fees or installments in any way. Whereas the popular cPanel-based reseller web space hosting setup depends mostly on monthly or annual down payments and subscriptions, which signifies... much bigger monetary risks. In contrast with ResellersPanel's reseller web space hosting platform, the cPanel reseller hosting setup is not interested in whether the reseller has made any bargains or not - the monthly or annual reseller fees have to be paid up punctually, in other words have to be prepaid. Full stop.
American, European and Aussie cloud web space hosting plans
ResellersPanel is not solely a jeopardy-free reseller site hosting platform. ResellersPanel delivers ACTUAL CLUSTERED SITE HOSTING solutions for reselling. Everywhere else, there is some partial evidence for the availability of a cloud hosting environment. The cloud hosting plans the resellers can custom create and sell on behalf of their webspace hosting trademarks are available at four data center facility sites: in the United States, in the United Kingdom, in Sweden and in Australia!

How many cPanel web hosting companies provide cloud hosting services to the resellers and to their clientele?
Virtual hosting server, semi-dedicated web hosting server and dedicated server hosting reseller solutions
How many reseller hosting wholesalers, other than ResellersPanel, enable their resellers to offer VPS, semi-dedicated servers and dedicated hosting at quite competitive prices? Hepsia, the industry-leading hosting Control Panel, is also included there, by default, at no extra or additional cost. Unmetered hosted domains, SSH and full server root access are also incorporated in the functionality-rich web hosting server accounts. Additionally, the resellers can also provide more than fifty generic and country code top-level domains and digital certificates to their customers.
