Ok, here's what's going on, i've been searching the forums around for a while, and trying to get a good idea about reseller hosting and i really really like how it can host my domains and i can offer it to web design clients.
I'm currently using HostOnce.com and they're alright, but they lack tons of features, i also dislike the fact that my site has been going on and offline this month, 2 days it went out completly :(
So far i've found:
resellerworkz.com
fuitadnet.com
FuitadNET was reffered by a friend but i dont like their TOS, seem too harsh. Anyways, i'm looking for a QUALITY host, and dont mind paying something like
$10-20/mo, but hopefully about $15 or under.
If you have a reseller host you would reccomend, tell me how long you've been with them and give me a link, or even if you've just heard good things....
thanks for your help, i appreciate it

Hi. The company I am contracting with has used Hostgator (http://www.hostgator.com) for about 6 months since June. They have provided good support and for the most part excellent uptime. As an example, we just had an outage problem a few days ago, but it was the first time in 2-3 months that we had experienced any downtime. We are using Siteuptime to monitor our domains. You should note that our current domains (7) are all internal to the company and not downstream hosting clients. The performance has typically been excellent in terms of serving html pages and downloads. I usually manage 350K-370K/second for downloads on a cable connection. They offer a money-back guarantee where they will refund the entire months hosting if you experience more downtime than in their uptime guarantee. I haven't used it but I have seen others that have, so I know they do honor it. Probably not the best host around, but the price to value ratio is hard to beat (5GB space, 50GB b/w for $24.95/mo. on their smallest reseller plan). Hope this helps.

You mentioned fuitadnet.com. Note that fuitadnet.com, empirehost.com, blutekhosting.com, bitstreamhosting.com and supportempire.com are all apparently owned by the same guy, Sharon Koifman (sharkman). We had the misfortune to be with one of those when it was bought by Koifman, and it was a shambles.
We now use a reputable VPS service and it's a dream. Unfortunately, we don't offer reseller accounts (preferring to host quality clients directly) so we can't help you. But please feel free to contact me directly if you need help in your search.
Good luck and Merry Christmas
