    Hello,
    I am thinking of starting a web-hosting business. Could you please tell me from your experience:

    1) What is a good host to sign-up reseller account with?
    2) The competition is too tough in web hosting market, is it really worth to start a new web hosting business?
    3) Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    1. I would suggest a reseller from nixism.com, hostgator.com, mediatemple.com, and lunarpages.com
    2. Yes, the competition is high, but with commitment and dedication you can jump in at any moment and become a good web host. All it takes is a good client base and a good crowd around you.
    3. I would suggest spreading the word on communities you are very active at, that way the others will know your reputation, and would be able to trust you.

    1) We are a provider of reseller hosting, so obviously I would recommend us :p. I would be able to provide you an unmetered reseller where you would be able to use as much space as you wanted.
    2) its tough, but its certainly not full, people want sites all the time ;).
    3) Dedicate yourself to it, take pride in your company :).

    I would gather they are alright there too. Some people have good expierences and some bad. What requirements do you need in your reseller plan jazz? I'm sure I could easily meet your needs/budget.

    Well, if you take my advice, we would suggest you to start in and check the market first. Indeed, the market is really tight but we all have to sustain the competition and be the best and always provide quality hosting service and support.

    If you require any suggestions or reviews, simply let us know and we will guide throughout the process.

    Regards

    in general reseller hosting divided to those that allow overselling or not.

    hostgator not allow overselling. this to maintain a good customer satisfation on server quality.

    site5 reseller does allow overselling, which you can create more accounts that you suppose to be.

    have to decide which channel you like to take first.
