Reseller Hosting
Starting a shared web hosting business is easy as 1-2-3! What you need are a reseller hosting plan, billing software (Here a couple of the most appropriate and easiest to use - WHMCS and ClientExec), a web design and billing processor (PayPal, 2CheckOut and so on).
WHM and cPanel power our reseller plans. You will receive an account for WHM from where you can manage or manually add new hosting accounts and customize your cPanel control panel.
WHM - reseller center and manager
Reseller accounts get WHM access. Using WHM you can create/modify/delete packages, accounts, permissions, see server hardware and load and much more.
|
Remote access key
This is probably one of the most important features in WHM. Remote access key gives you the ability to automate the account creation and suspenion process with your billing software. As WHM/cPanel is the most popular control panel right now - all web hosting billing softwares support this feature. When you approve the transaction - the account will be automatically created under your reseller account and your client will receive the welcome email.
|
Package creation tool
Create the desired package. Offer from 1 MB to UNLIMITED space, bandwidth, FTP accounts, E-Mail accounts and so on. You can also set default language (for example French), default theme and decide whether or not to allow the customer to be able to execute CGI's.
|
Support request forwarder
All billing softwares can help you in providing the support to your customers. But the easiest way is to do not force the client to switch from cPanel to the billing area in order to open a ticket. That's why cPanel provided this solution. Your customer opens a trouble ticket from cPanel and this ticket by using mail or PIPE goes directly in your billing area, where the actual ticket is created.
|
cPanel - first time visit
When your customer login to the cPanel for first time, he will see a popup with text "Do you need help getting started". Any customer that has no experience with cPanel can then go through a wizard with several steps - to choose the language of his cPanel, getting to know what is web hosting and how his site is going to work, how to setup and upload his site, configure emails and access to webmails and at the end he will also be able to change the theme of his cPanel look.
|
Find everything easily from one place
Webhosting is indeed something increadible. It offers so many options about your site and e-mails, that you might get lost. Now cPanel offers the easiest way to find what your customers are looking for. They just have to type the keyword as we did in this example.
