Hello everyone :),
I thought that it'd be a good idea to make one list of all the reputable reseller providers as this would help many people looking for a reseller account such as myself.
I'll start off with a few:

MOD EDIT:
As stated below you are welcome to list providers you have used.

How do you define Reputable Reseller Providers?

Everytime someone starts a list like this what you get is a list of WHT most popular not the best not the worst just the flavor of the month club.

If you are going to start a list and add a company then at least follow the rules and only recommend hosts that you have personal knowledge of and a valid reason for recommending them or the post will be removed.

So please tell us which of the host above have you used?

It's about time someone said that. It was/is getting ridiculous when some people reel off 10-15 companies, of which they have had little, or no experience with.

I very much agree. Reviews of companies you have actually used are a lot more useful and reliable than recommending someone else because you saw someone else recommending them.

People have also made "definitive" lists in the past. They seem to be a regular occurrence here.

And you inevitably offend people - some by inclusion, and some by exclusion.

;)

If you don't mind phpsuexec, then I would highly recommend myacen networks. They're my third host in two years and have a very good combination of fast response time and their forums are one of the best I've seen.

wow... 1gb/space and only 15gb/bandwidth for $20.00 seems just a tad high, considering thousands of hosts are cheaper..

Don't base your judgement of a host's prices on disk/transfer allocations, nor additional options only.

Look for service, support etc.

Also, to comment on the 15gb/1gb offer, I myself would class that price as low.

The worst is when a host recommends another host and that other host reiterates back the same recommedation of the first host. The only reason they'll give you is that "I've talked to *insert name here* a couple of times and I think *insert name here* is a great person. I recommend his/her company." Oh please, that's just a dressed-up link exchange.

Customers don't want to know that *insert name here* is a great person to talk to. They want to know that if they pay for the service, that they'll get the hosting and support they deserve.

With that, many cheap/budget hosts have good support and service as well.

Cheap isn't necessarily bad. Just make sure enough research is done before diving in.

And comments like this are completely useless that do little to aid people in their search for a good reseller host.

My comment is as useless as your reply to my post. All I said was $20 for 1gb - 15gb is a tad high. Considering your cheapest reseller account is $30.00 I see why you posted that ;) heh

After about a year of experience with Ventures Online:
-> good support team
-> good uptime
-> but kind of pricey

C'mon guys, post the time w/company and at least a few good points along w/any issues you have or have dealt with. Be objective, honest and no freakn BS this time, PLEASE!

We have an account with Our Internet >> http://ourinternet.us and are very happy with their system "H-Sphere". It is a great system for reseller and Our Internet has been a great help in getting us started. They have good uptime and very helpful info in the reseller help center.
