Ex-Hostrail reseller, where now?


Currently have 100 vps customers.
All customers are from my community sites, this customer base will rise dramatically when I start to advertise.

Require high RAM VPS from 1GB to 8GB RAM - at low costs

Looking for budget/low cost vps providers I can resell from.
Used to use Hostrail, but have just cancelled all active VPS packages as they rose their prices by 60%

Any advice would be useful!
ie. this provider is great, resell their servers or buy dedi servers use solusvm and sell your own vps packages

You're probably just going to run into this problem again with your new provider. Why not just purchase your own dedicated servers?

What about to get dedicated server? There around are some really good offers with decent discount. Check: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=36

I do not have the knowledge (currently) how to automatically setup and allocate vps packages for my customers.

Do you plan on reselling or do you want to run your own kit? You do realize, if you are looking for a 75% discount you're going to just run into this BS again and have it happen all over.

Eitherway I want to provide my customers with vps packages.
Reseller other providers or reselling allocated parts of dedi servers (which I have no knowledge of).

Discount is not a massive issue for me, the instant activation and allocation of vps packages for my customer is #1.

I just need assistance

Honestly, even based on their current price, you'll have a very very very hard work searching for a reliable host matching their prices.

No problem, looking for alternatives (at higher prices)

2.99 for a VPS? How cheap do you want to go here? You're asking to be in the same situation -- you didn't learn from Hostrail that you can't sell VPS's at $1/month?

I was buying in servers at <$5 for 1GB RAM

----

128MB RAM is useless for my customers.
As stated in my first post

My customers need >1GB to 8GB.

----

I assume Dedi servers and manual allocation is the way forward.

8GB for a VPS? What is your budget for this?
