    Hey guys im wanting to start webhosting for the country I am in. Now from what I understand in different threads resellerzoomhttp://www.resellerzoom.com/advanced-reseller.shtml are pretty good.

    I want to start small and then when I get enough customers move to a dedicated server. When I buy the reseller account what do I do from there?

    Theres also billing software offered which one should I choose www.whmautopilot.com or CE at www.clientexec.com.

    My aim is to provide a small plan for free webhosting for beginners and then have better plans when users want more space, bandwidth and extras. Any suggestions would be great im a total noob when it comes to resellers but im determined to do well.

    Cheers

    I personally would go for client exec. WHM Auto Pilot feels under developed.

    If you want i can give you reseller hosting for £10.00 per month and the WHMCS billing software for free.

    My hosting plans start at just £10 per month for a basic package and £30 for a mean package.

    See the plans:

    Well I prefer using WHM/cpanel. If you find a good host to start you on a shared reseller plan, that is best for starting out. I couldn't imagine you paying more than $30 for a beginner reseller account. If you offer free hosting be sure to review alot of sites, as these type of sites might progressively drain server resources and root may ban that account. I prefer WHM autopilot, i never had experience with the other. Best luck in your findings!

    More users go with WHM/cPanel

    About the billing system, it depends on your budget frst. If you can spend, I would recommend buying ModernBill.

    Though WHMCS and CE are also at its best!

    I would recommend that you also consider Host Gator if you havent already settled on a provider for your reseller hosting
