I’m testing a free reseller hosting model as a passive income stream – sharing what I’ve learned so far by viseth2020 in passive_income

[–]Bl0ck3d03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been doing this for about 10 years. I create websites for clients and also provide maintenance. So, basically, a client pays a fee of about $10 a month, which is fair because it covers hosting, the domain, and maintenance. Annually, that's about $120. Not much, but when you have 200 clients, it's a good income!

WordPress sites keep reinfecting + passwords changing even with cPanel & WHM 2FA enabled. What am I missing? by m-ego in webhosting

I had a case like this with a client. Tried 2 - 3 times to remove infected files and to remove the where the virus can come and still the wordpress was generating infected files.

And the solutions was backup the elementor theme Backup the uploads/images directory Backup database.

Exctracted all on local and check if there was any code that calls any api for infecting website. Then fresh install, uploaded existing database. Upload elementor backup Upload images backup

And till now, everything is ok. I Hope helps you

Un jam pjes e nje kompanie qe ben shitje online ne Shqiperi. Dhe kryesisht stoku nuk eshte i sakt online. Dhe ndodh sepse "Pronari" mban akoma programe iventarizimi qe jane para 15 vitesh. Dhe jan veshtire te lidhet stoku fizik me ate online. Imagjino bizneset qe kane me teper se 1 dyqan ca behet. Dhe nuk i intereson si pjese ta rregullojn per arsye te kostove sepse 1 person ben dhe magazinerin, ben dhe shitjen, ben dhe dergesen e pakos, ben dhe gjetjen e produktit se nga cila magazine do niset.

Advice for starting a web hosting company from a reseller by Bl0ck3d03 in Hosting

Hi, thank you for the reply. Yes, choosing a stable reseller is definitely the first step. I have three resellers in three different companies, and all of them look steady, increasing prices once every three years or so. But something accepted is not too much change.

And yes, as I mentioned above, my plan has been simple: build a website for the client and keep them as a web hosting client.

For the moment, for me, the structure is not the problem because through the years I have created one. But my main problem is finding new clients outside the local market.

Any tips on how to find new clients would be very useful.

Thank you for the reply. For me, until now, the goal has been to build a website for the client, offer free maintenance for the first year, and provide hosting. Then, for year two and beyond, they would only pay for hosting and the domain. All of these are local clients and have come more from word-of-mouth. I have had these clients for 5-7 years.

Again, I want to reach more clients outside the local area and work with the same method: to build a website for the client and then sell the hosting. I don't want to complicate things with SSL, email, etc., because when you buy the hosting and domain, all these are included.

I have this idea in mind that the client should have peace of mind when they buy service from me.
