Windows hosting reseller account?

I'm looking to start a part-time Windows hosting reseller business. Can you recommend a web hosting company offering Windows 2003 hosting reseller plans?

My budget is $45 per month and I need 5GB space, 100GB traffic, ASP.NET, ASP and MySQL databases. I also need unlimited domains or at least 100 dommains included in the plan. I prefer to have my own private DNS servers too.

Any suggestions?

Web hosting is very saturated industry and it will be hard for you to compete if you don't have a budget to advertise.

yeah, it's extremely hard to compete with big companies that can have low prices.

serverplex.com/ is having a special on reseller accounts, so you could check that out.

I wish you the best of luck with your project.

And after you sign-up you can sell custom packages or packages period on freewebspace.net/forums and a couple other sites just like it Smile

Yeah really tough business to get into, unless you have a special niche to target. I know in the advertising segment, web hosts pay some of the absolutely highest prices to get people to their sites.

Dont touch those unlimited bandwidth places, they really are misleading.

I wouldnt say dont do it, just be prepared to make very little revenue.
Windows hosting is more profitable than Linux hosting IMO because there is less competition, but the outlay is very high.
