Sorry for posting two threads or topics in a row, but I was wondering what type of expenses you all had to go through to start and run a successful web hosting company reselling hosting plans... This is kind of like the thread, "Unforeseen Expenses," but this is for resellers... Thanks a lot! :)

The expenses are pretty much the same but minus costs for


rent dedicated server and related costs including upgrades
control panel


The rest, including much coffee :), should be the same.

if you don't then you will have to pay for the set-up fee of your 3rd party processor.

I wonder how many people read a thread before posting....

He talked about the thread "Unforeseen Expenses" and I said "the same minus server rent and control panel".

You either have to pay for a Sys admin if you're reselling.
