Become a Website Hosting Reseller
With today’s job market being so uncertain, many people would like to start their own businesses. But, because of the economy, a lot of people do not have the money needed to start a business. Does this sound like you? Perhaps you should consider becoming a website hosting reseller.
Starting a hosting company does not require much upfront cost, nor does it necessarily require much experience. If you do have any type of internet experience, you may find the process of starting a web hosting reseller business to be a bit simpler and you may have more options as to how to begin.
There are software plans, though, that can walk you through the process and teach you about opening a business through a certain web host if you have no experience.
Most website hosting resellers tend to seek out clients in their local area. This isn’t a requirement, of course, but it is often easier for resellers to obtain clients from their local market.
Web hosting is very competitive, with larger companies spending great amounts on advertising on major websites and search engines. It is difficult for smaller resellers to compete with that; therefore, capitalizing on the local area by contacting social and professional connections can often gain clients for resellers. There may also be inexpensive (or even free) advertising opportunities locally, such as in hometown newspapers and city-wide magazines.
It isn’t difficult to begin making money as a hosting reseller. You could choose to begin very small at first, then build up further as time goes on. For instance, let’s say that you could purchase a large hosting package that contains 10 GB of disk space and 10 GB of bandwidth and that the cost for this package was $15 per month. Now, you could divide your package up into ten client accounts with 1 GB of disk space and 1 GB of bandwidth for each. Charge $10 for each of these packages, and you earn $100 per month. Your only cost was the $15 package cost, so your monthly profit would be $85.
The following companies are to known to provide best reseller hosting packages.
Reseller web hosting is a great way to start a home business without having to put out a lot of money upfront. With some advertising and some effort, you can be on your way to some great profits.
