    ResellerClub

    I am thinking about moving. ResellerClub was a name given to me. I had never heard of them so I am asking you guys for advice.

    What are the opinions out there on ResellerClub?

    How is their support system?
    Do you consider them to be a reliable Data Center?
    Hmmm,is ResellerClub a DataCenter?
    Any thing else that I should be aware of about them?



    Thank you in advance.

    Maybe, I am still doing my research. Don't want to get into the same position that I am in now.

    ResellerClub is a DirectI brand and popularly known for providing domain reseller accounts. They are not a Data Center themselves. They are good for reselling domains as per my experience of several years, but I have not used or sold their hosting so can't comment on the same.

    Is this because of their slab tiers, pricing, support or a combination of different factors?

    I personally didn't like their control panel.
    Now a days- another unlikeliness added- "Unlimited Plan".
    Pricing for dedicated IP is another point.
    And finally I didn't like their support timing & manner.

    You should go with a Reseller Club reseller like Net Earth One instead. Its cheaper and you can do the same thing.

    NetEarthOne is not Reseller of ResellerClub.

    They are separate ICANN accredited registrar.

    Yes but the interface is the same.

    They are using the same platform but it is rumored that Netearthone have developed their own. Don't know exactly what the state of affairs is in this matter but you can surely find a thread here about it.

    From my research I know that ResellerClub:
    1. Is not an ICANN accredited registrar
    2. Does not own a Data Center - they are using someone else
    3. Took almost two days to reply to my e-mail for assistant
    4. Is off-shore but was very friendly and helpful (at least to me)
    5. Has private-labeling - server/whois will show my brand

    Still in the Blind:
    1. Do they provide tech support to my customers?
    2. Can I customize packages for my niche market
    3. Skinning their template to meet my customers/my needs

    As for netearthone.com that should be another thread...please don't confuse me.

    Your right:
    http://www.icann.org/en/registrars/accredited-list.html

    http://www.publicdomainregistry.com/ is the only accredited domain from them and its in India.

    uragon, just to clear some doubts

    ResellerClub is a brand of DirectI (founded in 1998) having around 53,773 resellers and around 236 countries served.
    DirectI is the company that created LogicBoxes.
    LogicBoxes is the platform used by many registrars (including netearthone).
    DirectI/LogicBoxes helps companies to get ICANN accreditation.
    PublicDomainRegistry is also a DirectI company serving 3,103,357 domains as of the time of this post.
    PublicDomainRegistry does not sell to end users, its reseller based only (that is why ResellerClub is there).
    DirectI has many other brands too.

    As for your questions:
    ResellerClub will not provide support to your customers, you will have to do that and ResellerClub will provide support to you.

    You can customise packages/rates as per your needs/market.

    Yes you can skin their SuperSite/PartnerSite.

    Further:
    You can have resellers under you.
    You can sell the products you want, you don't have to sell all the products.

    Have a real feel of them by signing up for a demo account at http://www.resellerclub.com/demo
    It's full working demo, explore it.

    If you have the expertise, money and time, you don't have to use their SuperSite/PartnerSite, they also offer free API access, so you can create your own application/platform as a frontend, some billing application are already there in the market like WHMCS, ClientExec etc that integrates well with ResellerClub API.

    A suggestion, just sell domains from them, for hosting get a cPanel/Plesk/DirectAdmin based reseller account from a reputed company, setup your site, have billing application in place and a good business plan and start selling.

    Also visit Running a Web Hosting Business and the tutorial section within to get a good read.

    So by this reasoning all WHMCS users are the same?
