You may easily start your web hosting business reseller hosting without having to invest much money. It enables you to start a hassle-free web hosting company that makes exceptional earnings.

Reseller hosting allows you to utilize a parent web host's resources and resell them under your own brand as if they were your own. The majority of reseller hosting companies, like GoHostShop, offer white labeled web hosting, which allows you to offer web hosting services under your own name and branding without your clients ever knowing.

Any type of business, including digital agencies, web design/development firms, and online marketers, can benefit greatly from reseller hosting. In reality, reseller hosting is a viable option for anyone looking to supplement their income. Since your parent hosting provider will be handling the majority of the server operations, you don't need to be very tech-savvy to get started with reseller hosting.

So, Are you prepared to use GoHostShop to launch your reseller hosting company?  If so, you must have no idea where to begin or how to go about it. This comprehensive startup guide will help you get your reseller hosting company off the ground with GoHostShop.

1. Buy reseller plan

 Invest in an appropriate plan that meets your clients' needs and has adequate resources. The quantity of resources needed for each client's website and the number of clients you have will determine which reseller hosting plan is best for you.

Linux and Windows are the two operating systems for which GoHostShop offers reseller hosting packages. You can select based on what you need. You can start with a beginner plan at first and then enhance it as your needs grow.

PayPal, bank transfer, Visa, Mastercard, Rupay, and a few other online payment options are available for purchasing Windows reseller plans and Linux reseller plans from GoHostShop. Reseller hosting plans with and without the WHMCS tool are available from GoHostShop. You can choose based on what you need.

2. Request for migration

You must move your reseller hosting account to the GoHostShop server if you already have one hosted by another provider; if not, you can go straight to step 3.

We will require your cPanel/WHM login credentials in order to move forward with the migration; you may email these to support@GoHostShop.com. You have the option to transfer all of your domains to a GoHostShop reseller account or just a few names from your current reseller account. Provide a comprehensive list of the domains you want relocated if you just want a subset of them.

You will receive login information for your reseller account with GoHostShop via email after the transfer procedure is finished.

3. Sent reseller login credentials

Your reseller account is enabled as soon as the purchase is made and the migration is completed. Following that, your registered email address receives the login credentials for your reseller account. The specifics of the cPanel/WHM panel will be included in this, which may be used to establish hosting packages, cPanel accounts, amend or alter packages, and much more.

4. Reconfigure name servers

Upon activation of your reseller account, you must point the domain name to the GoHostShop reseller server.

When using GoHostShop hosting, the nameservers you will obtain by default are eu.solidhosting.pro, in.solidhosting.pro, sg.solidhosting.pro, and us.solidhosting.pro. To fully rebrand your hosting under your own domain name, you can also register your own nameservers. If your domain name is "resellerhost.com," for instance, you can register ns1.resellerhost.com and ns2.resellerhost.com as your own nameservers.

Having "private nameservers" will enable you to keep GoHostShop server names hidden from your clients.

You can register private nameservers through your domain registrar panel if that's what you'd like.

5. Use WHM to create new packages.

It is advised to create the hosting packages before creating your cPanel account.

Choosing a variety of plans that your web hosting clients can select from is the first step in creating a hosting package. The amount of resources you want to dedicate to each strategy must be specified.

Use these procedures to generate plans:

• Open your WHM panel and log in.
• Find "Packages."
• Select "Add a Package" as the first option here.
• Name the hosting package and allot resources (disk space, bandwidth, subdomains, etc.) to each plan individually.
• To build the hosting package, click "Add."

6. In WHM, create a cPanel account.

You will be able to set up unique accounts for each of your clients using a cPanel. Depending on the package they have chosen, you can grant them access to resources and privileges.

To set up accounts with cPanel:

• Navigate to "Account Functions" in the WHM panel.
• Select "Create New Account."
• Complete the necessary fields to establish a cPanel account for your customer. You can allocate packages, domain details, email accounts, and other things from this page.
• To create a cPanel account, click the "Create" button.

7. Use FTP to upload the website

The next step is to upload your client's file to your server after you have assigned them the desired package.

You can move files from your PC to the web server by using an FTP. You will need an FTP client, such FileZilla or Cyberduck, for this. On the internet, there are numerous FTP clients available.

After that, you'll need to establish an FTP connection to the GoHostShop server using your cPanel account login credentials. File uploading is possible as soon as the connection is made.

8. Configuring and setting up WHMCS

The WHMCS product offers resellers a one-stop shop for solutions. Managing client billing and support ticket requests is a good use for this tool. By automating all manual processes including invoicing, reminders, and billing, it streamlines your reseller hosting company.

How is WHMCS installed?

It is advised that you install WHMCS using the Softaculous script-installer, as it is among the easiest methods requiring only a few clicks.

Your reseller hosting account with GoHostShop automatically comes with Softaculous, and the GoHostShop team installs the WHMCS tool for you.
