Hi!
I am new to this reselling thing. I am currently studying and wanted to try being a webhost for once rather than being hosted. I've gathered quite a lot of information from all these forum threads and am really eager to start a small webhosting service. Firstly, what should I look for when signing up for a reseller plan? Secondly, what do most customers require? Php, mySQL, asp and so on. Thirdly, are there any recommendations for any resellers offering plans below $20? Cause I am on a tight budget. Thanks in advance!!

Good servers, low loads, fast and friendly support, good reputations. At least 6mths in business etc...

Just the usual stuff on *nix servers with WHM/Cpanel etc..:)

You can get reseller plans for that much. There are hosts here that can service you for your needs etc. You can try posting a request into the request forum and see what jumps and and bites. Some hosts to look at could be - mchost, voxtreme.com, spalashhost.com etc....plenty to choose from.

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping that you could elaborate on these cause I would then know what to look for =P

Is it like, decent space, 2 gig, php, asp, mysql, phpMyAdmin?

Thanks!

Size of your plans and pricing is up to you.
