Hi All,
I am looking to get my first resellers account and have read way to much of this forum and am now confused as to who I should choose.

I would like several opinions of these I list and some new ones I did not list.

All your help is appreciated greatly !

mchost.com

kualo.com

voxtreme.com

dialuphost.com

onefusion.com

mdit.net

Depends on what your needs are, what price you want to pay, and what they offer.

Voxtreme (http://www.voxtreme.com) were very helpful when I purchased my reseller account there.

My recommendation:

1) what is the price?
2) What are the cost of add ons? (if any)
3) What are others saying about them?
4) What are their terms or conditions?
5) What support systems are in place?
6) Do they spam the forums?
7) Do they get involved with their customers (forums etc)
8) where are their servers located?
9) Is the owner over the age of consent?
10) Way up the pros and cons and pick your poison :D

Hello,

I have a ZIP File containing an Excel Worksheet which is written by someone else who was also searching for a Reselling Company.

He has all the features of around 8-10 companies compared alongwith prices and etc.

I am attaching this file.

Also, I would second that Voxtreme.com is an excellent choice!

For newbies a company that offers some kind of live support is help full, you can ask them 101 little questions that arent worth e-mailing about.

Hi All,
Thank you all for the responses.
I think I am going with one of the following:
kualo.com
voxtreme.com
mdit.net
or onefusion.com ? (anyone used them ? )
Not that the others are not good.
I am looking for an account with about 20GB of transfer and a price of between 30 and 35 a month.

With
Private CGI-Bin
Unlimited MySQL Databases
Remote Access to WebMail
PhpMyAdmin Access

And if I am not mistaken all of these three have what I want.

Am I correct ?

Thanks
Brian Toedt

To be honest, if you're going into reselling you need a business plan. You should then be able to determine from your business plan what you will offer, and from that you should be able to pick a company to resell.

Or I'm very much mistaken in my assumptions!!
