STEPS TO START YOUR RESELLER BUSINESS
 

1. Register a domain name

Before we can setup your reseller account, you need to register a domain name. A domain name is then pointed to web space by using "nameservers". siterollout.com offers super low cost domain registration from £4.99/year for a .uk domain. Simply sign up for any hosting plan, and you will have an option to register a domain during the signup/ordering process. If you already have your own domain name, then all you need to do is ...

2. Purchase one of our reseller accounts

Once you have a domain name registered, simply purchase one of our reseller plans. We will then send your reseller account details via email, which will include the details of the nameservers you need to change your domain name to point to so that it maps to your reseller account.

3. Learn the ropes

Our reseller accounts have great functionality, and you should learn the various features available such as creating hosting packages, creating accounts, using FTP etc. There's things to learn if you don't know anything about web hosting, but it is very interesting! Create an account for a friend's domain, or even start selling hosting space immediately.

3. Design a website

Next you need a website to offer your hosting packages on. You can either try to design a website yourself, or get someone else to do so for you. You can post a free project on www.scriptlance.com and see what kind of bids you receive for designing your site. You should also find some way of managing your clients to provide them with first 1st line support. Any support queries you receive which you cannot answer can asked to us via our Support Helpdesk Ticket System.

5. Advertise and market your hosting

Think about ways to advertise your hosting plans and find a market for your services. You can advertise on search engines such as Google or Yahoo, advertise in newspapers and magazines, and use whatever means you have at your disposal to generate more sales, which means more clients and more money.

It really is down to you to make some effort, but if you do it right and work hard, you can start a decent small business on the side earning you some extra cash.

So what are you waiting for? Now all you need to do is to purchase one of our Reseller plans!
