Hi,
I have been looking around for a week now, and I must say I am more confused than when I started looking for a reliable Reseller of hosting and domain names registrations.
I would like to deal with someone who is NOT a reseller themselves, who has a record of good reliable service and support hopefully phone, chat and email.
As I am a startup I would like to keep expenses to a minimum.
I will appreciate your feedback on any experiences you may have (good or bad).
Thanks

Are you really sure you want to do this? To keep the real provider completely hidden is quite difficult, and may work against your marketing effort anyway. It's worth considering where you are adding value, and how that is best done. Commodity level services is a cut throat business!

You can resell domains from one provider and hosting from another, I saw that somebody in this forum where offering $8.95 Enom reseller accounts, you can get one of them and then research for a hosting reseller.
What are you looking for (space/bandwidth, control panel, etc) and what's your budget?

It is not that difficult. Searching for a good reseller who offers 100% private labelled hosting and free enom domain reseller account, should satisfy his needs.
However, choosing the right host who truely offers private labelled hosting is the important part of the theme..

It is impossible to keep your suppliers 100% hidden. If nothing else a simple IP look up will most generaly give it away. I would spend more time on making sure you provide a quality service, resources and be up front on what you have to offer. The consumer you are going to be targeting is the newbie anyways. The newbie is not going to be interested in paying the money out that you are to your suppliers.

It's not a case of making it completely hidden, but rather to not make it hugely obvious that they are reselling.
It's just not having another hosting companys name shoved in your customers face.
Sure if you want to look deep enoughyou can perhaps find out what datacenter and possibly provider but not everyone will do that and if they do that's fine,it's not meant to hide it.
Domains is easier, you just need a domain reseller account with someone,they will of course see that enom,directi,netearthone or whoever you choose are the registrar but that's normal.
You have the perfect place here to find what you need.

For Domain Reseller account, I have experience with DirectI, as it offer privilege to Make your Domain Reseller Account as private label as you want. I think the following Domain Reseller Setup Guide (http://manage.directi.com/kb/servlet/KBServlet/faq692.html) will help you with more details. DirectI is offering Suppersite too, in this way you can customize the suppersite to sell and handle your domain reseller business.
Hope this information help you :)

As a Directi reseller I have had mixed experience with them for domain and email hosting - on the one hand it is really easy to brand your own site (check out spiritdomains.com or dynamicdolphin.com if you want to see what their white-label site looks like) - on the other hand they are not exactly the sharpest tools in the box. When I joined, I was promised that they would be able to take .co.uk registrations within a couple of weeks - it actually took EIGHT MONTHS. They have a few restrictions for receiving emails, like the sender must have rDNS configured otherwise the message is rejected, and if someone sends a signature which uses an editdata.mso file (when emails are sent using HTML and inline attachments) then the message is also rejected - so your clients will start screaming that they are not receiving some email. On the plus side they are a 24-hour operation so you can have a chat with support anytime day or night, they offer the usual range of hosting products, their control panels are clumsy but they do the job and you can set up your own branded website in a couple of hours - they say 5 minutes but it takes a good couple of hours to go through everything.
