If you're thinking of starting a web host reselling website you may think the steps to success are easy and not too many. Well, compare to setting - up a business IRL any project done over the Internet can be arranged fairly easy and cost efficient. But there are a few things to keep in mind, especially if your business is based on selling somebody else's services. In order to keep credibility as a web host reseller we would like to give you a tip that many forget or neglect but is easy to correct and will strengthen your image as a professional web host reseller. It's using a private name server.
Private Name Server
Often when you're selling domains and web hosting packages it will become apparent that it's not your business that is distributing the service. One situation when this becomes obvious is when your customer is buying a domain or storage space. The domain server name will automatically say the hosting company you're using instead of your private domain name. It might be a good idea to make your customer believe that you're the prior seller of web hosting solutions. It is simply more professional than just being a hosting reseller. And it's just a few mouse clicks away.
Get A Private Name Server
Since all the services you are offering actually are part of another server every time a new customer is buying and setting up domain names and web hotels through your business they will be given the server names ns1.ultimatewebhosting.com and ns2.utlimatewebhosting.com. They will then be confronted with a company name they know nothing about. Since they have chosen your web hosting company to use and not the one you are a reseller for it should be ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com. Making this change will change you name servers in the WHOIS search directory as well. Don't worry; this is easy to adjust, with a little help of course.
Your Web Host Knows
You should not go about making this configuration without consulting your web host. By simply asking for a private name server they will surely cooperate with you, depending on the customer service. Often you are allowed to make DNS registration and name server configurations at the control panel of you web host. But each has their own way doing that. So to your convenience we advise you to contact your web host for further and more specific information.
