 | View Full Version : reseller under reseller? wizard 08-05-2002, 07:56 AM any idea about hosts that will let you set reseller account under your reseller account? I mean to set full reseller account under you with full features control panel? which control panel support it? thanks Aussie Bob 08-05-2002, 08:01 AM You won't find that exactly but you could just resell your supplier's reseller accounts to your clients. So you sign up with your supplier and you resend the welcome email [modified of course] onto your client etc. Some suppliers will even just add the new account onto your existing recurring payment rather than having separate recurring payments for your account + your resold accounts etc... wizard 08-05-2002, 08:14 AM thank you for your fast reply. but I can't believe it's not possible! what's the problem? is it software problem? I mean are you sure there is no such control panel that will let you do this? I bet it's not to hard to add this feature? or its just that hosters will not want to let me set reseller under reseller? Aussie Bob 08-05-2002, 08:29 AM It's just a bad idea for a feature. Where does it all end? Resellers having resellers having resellers having resellers...??? :eek: You could come to an arrangement with your supplier that they could give reseller access to a domain that you've setup and they could adjust your recurring payment accordingly. The main question is, why do you want to stack resellers upon resellers for? It's a recipe for trouble. wizard 08-05-2002, 08:50 AM Originally posted by Aussie Bob It's just a bad idea for a feature.

POINT BLANK!!!!! You may be able to handle 1 or 2 w resellers account but to solely focus on resellrs and your a reseller yourself is absurd. DotComster 08-05-2002, 04:04 PM It's offered by most large hosting compaines - WHM is built for it. If you really are into it and have many customers go dedicated. www.VenturesOnline.com is my current favorite virtual host to offer this. wizard 08-05-2002, 06:42 PM thank you all. i really appreciate your input in the subject. and if any one can point me to more URL's i will be grateful! fractiousws 08-05-2002, 06:55 PM Originally posted by Aussie Bob ...Some suppliers will even just add the new account onto your existing recurring payment.... How would that work? Don't think it would be the best idea unless everyone signed up on the same date ;) Aussie Bob 08-05-2002, 07:38 PM Originally posted by fractiousws How would that work? Don't think it would be the best idea unless everyone signed up on the same date ;) No, not really. We have clients who resell our reseller plans and I just edit their existing recurring credit card payment with the new account amount added, rather than setting up a new payment. we save on processing costs. It works out good for them because they might not have to pay their next recurring transaction for a couple of weeks. That then becomes like a reseller's perk etc. Folks seem to like the idea. :) Darth 08-05-2002, 09:32 PM Wizard, over at terrastudios there working on a new control pannel with the feature you want, but it wont be finished for a while yet :bawling: . |
