I am looking for a reseller package with around

2gb space
50 gb band
Cpanel
95% uptime
ok support
under $10

I want to set up two sites with one package. How can i do that?
I have these two domains
247solution.com
dhost.biz

which is better?

Also what is VPS? I have seen it so many times. Is it reseller selling reseller? Would that be a good thing to have?

Also what other things do you need? Something for instant activation etc right? Where can i get that? What do you recommend? I have paypal but what other payment gateways is widely used?

Thanks

Spend a few minutes and read around here and search. It will answer most of your questions.

For automatic signups, you'll need something like WHM Autopilot and there's another I cannot remember off hand.

IMO, .com names are always better in terms of looking professional.

there a umpteen no. of hosts that meet the criteria you have stated. VPS is virtual private server, that could basically be a reseller selling space or a primary provider selling space. It is usually used when selling space for hosting one site.

What is a VPS?
A VPS performs and executes exactly like a stand-alone server with its own processes, users, system files, IP addresses and any other parameter that would normally be assigned to a standalone server. The Virtuozzo architecture is unique because it maximizes server resource efficiencies by placing multiple VPSs on a single OS, enabling many VPSs to run on a single physical server.

==================================
Just Like a Dedicated Server!
Each VPS has its own processes, users, files and provides full root access.

Each VPS can have its own IP addresses, port numbers, tables, filtering and routing rules.

Each VPS can have its own system configuration files and can house an application.

Each VPS can have its own versions of system libraries or modify existing ones.

For Example: Multiple distributions of Linux can reside on the same physical server.



===================================

that is VPS ;)

if you need a host, well try QUOTE HOST or read posts around here :)

I found this one to be matching your criteria
http://www.turnkeyresellers.com

BUT BEWARE! THEY ALWAYS SOLD OUT ! so make your orders before it is sold out again. =)

thansk all

ok so i should use
247solution.com
to start off?

I have searched the forum and i have thought of
zoneserv.com
turnkeyresellers.com

Are they good? I like them because they seem to have some of the best plans and i have heard good things about them.

I want to ask that if i set up two sites to sell the resellers, would i need 2 IP? I don't know how the IP thing works.

When shopping for hosting I suggest you estimate the costs of the host too. Take a look at the price of a dedicated server from a good datacenter, ad some server admin costs, customer support costs, advertising costs, billing fees etc.

Sometimes it's just obvious that the host will be losing money in the long term and provide low quality hosting - unless they'll significantly up their prices at some point.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is to stay away from too good to be true offers.

As you can see, Dan is from www.whreviews.com. And footnote, 'lists honest hosts' . So I suggest you take a look there as well. This is interesting. I am going there now Dan. btw, has anyone you listed as honest , turns out to be dishonest or having bad reviews after some time?

btw, has anyone you listed as honest , turns out to be dishonest or having bad reviews after some time?Bad reviews are a fact of life as no company can have only happy customers. Some hosts did encounter short moments of... let's call it "dissaray", but unsurprisingly they managed to get back on their feet. :)

i asked them. They do oversell, and allow me to do so as well. I might start off there
