    Thanks... was just looking at your reseller plans..

    How come you charge PER MSSQL database? That's not very attractive to resellers. I emailed you about this a few minutes ago in your contact form. But I wanted also to raise for discussion in the community.

    Your reseller plans limit domains and emails, and instead of charging monthly for the MSSQL resource, you charge per database. To me, this is really unattractive from a reseller point of view.

    Can you offer your views on why you choose that pricing structure? I would pay your fee (setup fee and all) if there were no resource restrictions besides bandwidth & disk space (as other hosts do). But as it is, I will look have to look elsewhere.

    Hi antic,

    MSSQL server carries an extra licensing cost compared to mysql / pgsql. Other companies may choose to absorb that cost in order to attract more resellers and lower their profit margin, as I understand it is a competitive market. We chose not to compete on price hence we remain on our pricing schedule.

    As our reseller link is not supposed to be for public (there's no link to it from our main homepage) I'd appreciate if you can remove it from your post.

    Thank you and happy holidays!

    ah, sorry about that, and thanks for the response. However, I don't have an "edit" option, which is also weird... maybe it's the five-post restriction again. I'll post a couple more times somewhere and come back to see if the edit option appears. Otherwise we might have to grab an admin to take it off! My apologies.
