Become a Reseller

What is a reseller?

A reseller is someone who buys an amount of space and transfer off a server, divides it up and sells it to companies wishing to purchase web space or looking to find a cheaper more reliable server.

Can I change my reseller plan?

Yes, if you are running out of web space then you can purchase an EXTRA reseller package. This allows you more web space and transfer. There are no penalties or charges. This allows your hosting/reseller company to expand its capabilities as needed.

Can you offer support to my clients?
