Free reseller package hosting

OK - you want to start up in reseller hosting, but you just want to dip your toes in gently to get started and you don’t want to commit to monthly payment reseller package while you’re learning the ropes of reseller hosting.

Well - the good news is you can. There are reseller hosting packages available where you can sign up for free, and when a customer signs up with you for hosting, they pay the price you set for the package to the hosting company, and they forward you the difference between what you sell it for, and their wholesale price to you.

This way, you can get started in the reseller hosting business without any risk or outlay. You can create the packages you want to offer and set the prices, and the hosting company handles all the payments.

This is great if you want to start a business reseller hosting; not so great if you are a web designer/developer as you would have to pay for hosting each time you created a new site.

One great plan I have found is Resellers Panel. Their free reseller plan allows you to sell to your customers under your own brand name, create and customize your own hosting plans, put your own prices on them and let them handle the billing and support. They offer multi-currency support - credit/debit cards or PayPal payments (USD, GBP, EUR, CAD & AUD) and fraud protection.

It really is a complete solution - they provide free hosting for your own reseller website (they supply 16 ready made templates) or you can use their remote forms on your existing website. All communications with your customers (invoices, welcome e-mails etc) are handled by Resellers Panel, but are branded with your company name.

Remember - It is absolutely free to become a reseller with Resellers Panel, there are no billing or start up fees.
