As nearly every web host provides the option to purchase
reseller accounts, the Internet has seen a significant increase
in 3rd party hosting companies looking to develop a stable
recurring income. With a market filled with competition you have
probably asked yourself, "Should I become a reseller?"
Points to think about before deciding
Before taking the plunge and signing up for a reseller account
maybe you should ponder these points:
Do I have the time to market my services? - To stand out among
the many webhosts you will be required to market your services.
Be prepared to spend time every day marketing your new hosting
company or learning of various techniques to market your
services.
Am I prepared to offer support to my clients? - To effectively
support your clients when they have a question about web hosting
or if something is not working you should either have experience
with web hosting or the company that is providing reseller
services should provide this support. For instance 561Hosting
provides free support to resellers thus eliminating the need to
be an expert to provide services to your customers.
Am I in this for the long haul? - As you advertise your services
and become more visible to the Internet community you will no
doubt start to land customers. Be sure that you are committed to
providing these services indefinitely because your customers
have put their trust in you and are counting on you to be around.
Is it worth it?
Selling hosting services can be a very rewarding business that
you can run from the comfort of your home. Please be patient and
market your services everyday and before long you will have
several clients and may consider upgrading to a dedicated server
account. But that's another article....
