I am going to be offering a blog hosting service. I was wondering is there anyway i can have there blogs instantly setup when they pay for the hosting without having them go threw the control panel. I would like to have everything automated as much as possible any suggestions? I am using cpanel and fantastico.

Thank you for the info. If you have anyother resources please let me know. I am also interested in paying someone to set somthing like that up for me. If interested pm me and let me know your rates.

Post that in the advertising section, or job-offers section.

Bloghoster is way to exspensive. I need an alternatrive. Plus bloghoster wont allow me to charge users.

try plogworld.net or elgg.net

Could do a hack of mod_custom in ModernBill... get a cpanel reseller acct, put the blog in your skeleton directory so it is copied ot new accounts, use mod_custom to create the account, and then go into their cpanel via php code to create the db, user, grant access, and initilize the database/basic config.

Just a thought :)

Any ideas on how to do an autoinstall like this with HostingController?

Never seen HostingController, sorry :)

HostingController has a "Auto Script Copy", If logged in as the reseller you can select a folder to copy into each new site.

But sadly, no install on demand capability like it does for forums.
