I have been kicking the thought of diving into the world of web hosting around for a while now. But the thing is I still do not have a warm fuzzy on what I need to make this happen. I will not be able to fully dedicate my time until I get out of the military. Which will be in 10 months and 9 days. But I still need to have some issues worked out before I leave. If anyone can possibly help me out I would be very greatful. Thanks, Brad

Well, you could start out being a reseller. Some companies even handle support email for you. What direction are you thinking of heading in?

Just a couple of questions on becoming a reseller. 1: When clients sign up is it a automatic process or will I receive there info and have to input it? 2: What does it take to set up a site to do reselling? 3: Does my site have to be on the same host that I am reselling for? Thanks again!

Most host will require you to input the information in and email you the account information in about 4 minutes. You then forward that welcome letter to your client.

2: What does it take to set up a site to do reselling?

Setting up a site is not too hard. Make sure you're comfortable with HTML first or you can use one of HTML authoring programing

3: Does my site have to be on the same host that I am reselling for? Thanks again!

Some host require you to purchase a reselling account. Some do not but you must pay a fee.
