Hello:).

I am freelance web developer searching for a bulk reseller plan from a company in located in the USA, that accepts payment by check, offers support for: php, perl, asp, java, jsp, Server Side Includes, mailing list (major domo preferably), Unlimited POP3 Accounts, SSL, Unlimited Sub domains, Unlimited MySQL Databases, and easy to use control panel to create new accounts.

C/C++, Python, real audio/video desired but not required.

Excellent service and great pricing is a must.

Please let me know your experiences and recommendations.

Thanks!

Take a look at below companies:

splashhost.com
mchost.com
ecommercediscovery.com (WHM/CPanel Plans)
voxtreme.com (Nac servers)

There are many others here but you must do a search (using search button) to read user experiences with either of them. Search is the most reliable method you can use to find a good host.

Thanks Mac for your recommendations. I appreciate it.

I think I will go with xnethosting.com (http://www.xnethosting.com/)

Patrick from xnethosting.com (http://www.xnethosting.com/) seems like a great guy who knows what he is doing. I found their support to excellent even at 2 in the morning. The packages they had for resellers were the best that I could find and that with the good service, makes xnethosting.com (http://www.xnethosting.com/) an ideal choice. I will keep you posted on how the service and product quality is. For now it seems very good.

Thanks,

Adeel

The SSL on xnethosting(also, olm.net)
doesn't work on my browser. I wonder what type of Geotrust certificate they use. Most all certificates work on my WebTV if they are RSA4-128 bit. This may be important to you if you're planning on buying or using one of those cerificates. You cut out 1 million WebTV's who can't use the order button. Yes, I'm on WebTV now, and also have a PC.

This is the first I have heard of it not working. Thank you for pointing this out. I have sent a request to GeoTrust to see if they could shed a little light on this.

Also, several statistics pages I've seen estimate that 762 Million people will be online or have access to the internet by 2003. 1 Million of that number seems extremly small. However, this does concern me that its not working with your browser.

I guess I'll have to wait for them to get back to me, but thanks again for pointing it out :)

You're welcome. Yes, it's a small amount compared to the big picture. I've read those estimates too about the 762 million, and think that's way high. Regardless, if it isn't working on WebTV, I bet it isn't working on a few other browsers either. Also, you don't want webtvers criticising you and giving you bad publicly, so it's probably a good idea if you can resolve it.

Further, WebTV is compatible with MSIE 4.0, but mostly compatible with Netscape (Mozilla). That's because the original owners of WebTV made it more compatible with Netcape than IE.

Also, that's why I think I'd always go with a major certificate like Thawte or Verisign (instead of SecureLook or Geotrust). These cheaper certificates are not recognized by as many browsers. OTOH, there's no way to code for all browsers.

Just my 2c.

Good Luck!

If I'm not wrong, none of them offer ASP and/or Jsp/Servlets support.

Matt of Voxtreme said on the voxforums that JSP is installed on their servers. Might not be accurate anymore... Email them and find out.

Unlimited domains with JSP support is virtually impossible, because depending on the server hardware, JSP is limited to about 60-80 sites per server. If you install/use it on more, the server performance will decrease a lot.

I've been following your posts, MCHost, and you really seem knowledgeable. I've looked at your reseller plans. Maybe I'll look again. Just wanted to let you know.

We offer it on a limited basis - everything is on a case by case basis. We do recommend and prefer you use an alternative scripting lanague, though.
