Hello,

I have a VPS from Servint, and I am looking for a reseller account as well. I have had HostGator & ResellerZoom, but I am looking for something different now. Here is a quick list of my requirements -

- Great Uptime
- Great Speed
- Very Low Server Loads
- Around 5GB Space
- Great Support <less than 1/2 an hour or an hour replies>
- Overselling allowed (Not that I am fond of it, but a new project of mine requires this feature)
- Fantastico, A Billing Manager (CE or WHMAP)

Optional -
End User Support


Please give me your opinion on the hosts which you think fulfill my requirements.

I think it all depends on how much you wish to pay for it, many hosts will be able to meet those requirements.

I believe HostGator has a great reputation on the boards, but last I check they don't support overselling...

Yea, they don't. :) I am willing to pay upto 25$ per month. That should be good enough.

Hostgator doesn't support end user , I contacted site 5 , they seemly support for end user but the price's not cheap

25$ , I think with that sum of money you won't get good services . How much you need for bw ?

I'm looking for the same on you with 100G bw and I think the price must be around 35$ at least

Hello, YipeeTechnologies

Did you try the host quote ? or you can try also Site 5 like sgth said but I dont think they have cpanel or fantastico but double check anyways.

Good Luck

Site 5 like sgth said but I dont think they have cpanel or fantastico but double check anyways.For their reseller accounts they use WHM&Cpanel, not Netadmin.

just have double check my email, I made an mistake , Bliksem now support for end user ( just email ask them ) not site 5 , sorry guys

@YipeeTechnologies: I did some search around and bliksemhosting seem good though I didn't use their service anyway , just cuz their end user support cost much more, so you can take a look at them or do some research .

to truely meet these sorts of requirements over the long haul with a reseller account, expect to pay $0.75-$1.00/GB bandwith - anything less then this, and its a gamble...

take a look at httpme - they are an excellent reseller hosting provider running cpanel (dont think they offer end user support though) - however, you will notice that their pricing may be a little more then you expect for the resources allocated - but, they are proof of the pricing model required to achieve long term success and stability as a reseller provider....

Thanks for your comments everyone. I'll be dropping by Bliksem, HTTPME & Site5.

Thanks again everyone.
