Hosting.com Reseller

Hosting.com Reseller Hosting provides everything you need to start and grow a web hosting business without the complexity and cost of managing your own servers. With white-label hosting capabilities, WHM control panel, unlimited cPanel accounts, free WHMCS billing software, and A2's legendary Turbo server performance, you can offer hosting services under your own brand while A2 handles the infrastructure, security, and technical support.

A2's reseller hosting is built on the same high-performance infrastructure that powers their shared and VPS hosting, including SSD storage, Turbo server technology up to 20x faster than standard hosting, and 99.9% uptime guarantees. Whether you're a web design agency offering hosting to clients, an entrepreneur starting a hosting company, or a developer managing multiple projects, A2 Reseller provides the tools and support to succeed.

White-Label Hosting and Branding

Hosting.com's reseller platform is completely white-labeled, allowing you to build your hosting business under your own brand identity. Your clients interact exclusively with your branded hosting experience - from control panel interfaces to support communications - with no visible indication that A2 powers the backend infrastructure. This creates a professional, cohesive brand experience that builds trust and customer loyalty.

The white-label capabilities extend across all customer touchpoints. You can configure private nameservers using your own domain (ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com), customize the cPanel theme with your logo and colors, and use WHMCS billing software fully branded with your company information. Email notifications to your clients come from your domain and email addresses, maintaining consistent branding throughout the customer experience.

White-label features include:

• Private Nameservers: Custom nameservers branded with your domain
• Branded cPanel: Control panel customized with your logo and colors
• Custom WHMCS Theme: Billing portal branded with your identity
• Branded Emails: Customer notifications from your email addresses
• Anonymous Backend: No visible A2 branding to your customers
• Custom Welcome Messages: Personalized onboarding communications
• White-Label Documentation: Knowledge base under your branding

This comprehensive branding capability allows you to establish a genuine hosting business rather than appearing as a simple reseller. Your clients become your customers, not A2's, building long-term relationships and brand equity that benefits your business directly.

WHM Control Panel and Account Management

Web Host Manager (WHM) serves as your administrative control center for the reseller hosting platform. Through WHM's intuitive interface, you manage customer accounts, allocate resources, configure server settings, monitor usage, and handle virtually every aspect of hosting administration without touching command-line interfaces or requiring deep technical expertise.

WHM provides comprehensive hosting management capabilities. You can create unlimited cPanel accounts for your clients, each with customized resource allocations including disk space, bandwidth, email accounts, databases, and domains. Package templates let you define standard hosting tiers (starter, professional, enterprise) that streamline account creation and ensure consistent resource allocation across similar customer plans.

WHM capabilities include:

• Unlimited Account Creation: Create and manage unlimited cPanel accounts for clients
• Package Templates: Define hosting packages with preset resource allocations
• Resource Allocation: Control disk space, bandwidth, and feature access per account
• Account Suspension: Suspend or unsuspend accounts for non-payment or policy violations
• Account Migration: Transfer client accounts between servers easily
• Security Management: Configure SSL certificates, firewalls, and security settings
• DNS Management: Complete DNS zone control for client domains
• Email Server Control: Configure email routing and spam filters
• Backup Management: Create and restore backups for client accounts
• Usage Monitoring: Track resource consumption across all accounts
• Server Information: Monitor server health, uptime, and performance

The interface is designed for hosting providers rather than individual users, making it straightforward to manage dozens or hundreds of client accounts efficiently. Bulk operations let you perform tasks across multiple accounts simultaneously, saving time when making widespread changes or updates.

Free WHMCS Billing Software

Hosting.com includes free WHMCS licenses with all reseller plans - a significant value since WHMCS typically costs $15-20/month when purchased separately. WHMCS (Web Host Manager Complete Solution) is the industry-standard billing and automation platform for hosting businesses, handling everything from customer registration to invoice generation, payment processing, and support ticket management.

WHMCS integration with WHM enables complete automation of your hosting business. When customers purchase hosting through your WHMCS-powered website, the system automatically creates their cPanel account, sends welcome emails, configures billing schedules, and provisions their hosting - all without manual intervention. This automation allows you to run a professional hosting business without dedicating full-time staff to account management.

WHMCS features include:

• Automated Provisioning: Automatic cPanel account creation when customers purchase
• Billing Automation: Recurring invoice generation and payment processing
• Payment Gateway Integration: Support for PayPal, Stripe, credit cards, and 50+ gateways
• Support Ticket System: Built-in help desk for customer support management

• SSL Certificate Sales: Automated SSL certificate provisioning and installation
• Product Management: Define hosting packages with automated setup

The WHMCS interface is completely customizable with templates and themes, allowing you to match your brand identity perfectly. Integration modules connect WHMCS with popular CRM systems, accounting software, and marketing platforms, creating a comprehensive business management ecosystem.

cPanel Hosting Features for Clients

Your clients receive full-featured cPanel hosting accounts with all the tools and features they need to manage their websites. cPanel's user-friendly interface makes hosting accessible even for non-technical users, reducing support burden while providing professional-grade functionality.

The comprehensive feature set means your clients get professional hosting capabilities at whatever price point you set, making your hosting services competitive with major hosting providers while you maintain healthy profit margins.

Turbo Server Performance

A2's Turbo technology available on Gold and Platinum reseller plans delivers dramatically faster performance than standard shared hosting. Built on SwiftServer platform with LiteSpeed Web Server, NVMe SSD storage, and advanced caching, Turbo servers provide page loads up to 20x faster than traditional hosting - a compelling selling point for performance-conscious clients.

The performance advantages benefit both you and your clients. Faster page loads improve SEO rankings, increase conversion rates, and enhance user experience - all factors that help your clients' businesses succeed. When your clients succeed with their websites, they're more likely to remain long-term customers and recommend your services to others.

Turbo performance features:

• LiteSpeed Web Server: Advanced server processing PHP 40% faster than Apache
• NVMe SSD Storage: Ultra-fast storage 40x faster than traditional SSDs (Platinum plan)
• Turbo Cache: Server-level caching for WordPress and other applications

• Optimized PHP: Performance-tuned PHP configurations

Independent benchmarks consistently show A2's Turbo hosting outperforming competitors in WordPress, WooCommerce, and custom application testing. This performance advantage gives your hosting business a genuine competitive edge in a crowded marketplace.

Client Migration Assistance

Acquiring new clients often means migrating their existing websites from current hosts to your reseller platform. Hosting.com provides free migration services to help you onboard clients smoothly, reducing friction in the sales process and ensuring successful account setup.

For Gold and Platinum reseller plans, A2's migration team assists with transferring up to 10 client websites from their existing hosting to your reseller account. They handle the technical complexities of file transfers, database migrations, email account setup, and DNS configuration, ensuring smooth transitions with minimal downtime for your clients.

Migration services include:

• Complete website file transfer
• Database migration and optimization
• Email account and message migration
• DNS configuration assistance
• SSL certificate installation
• Post-migration testing and verification

Even on Bronze and Silver plans, A2 provides migration guidance and documentation to help you transfer client websites yourself. This support significantly simplifies the process of building your client base by removing technical barriers to switching hosting providers.

Security and Reliability

Hosting.com's Perpetual Security system protects your reseller server and all client accounts with multiple layers of defense. Comprehensive security is essential for hosting businesses, as security incidents affecting any client can damage your reputation and business. A2's proactive security approach provides protection that would be difficult and expensive to implement independently.

Security features include:

• HackScan Monitoring: 24/7 malware scanning across all client accounts
• Brute Force Defense: Automatic blocking of password attack attempts
• DDoS Protection: Defense against distributed denial-of-service attacks
• Dual Firewall: Web application and network firewalls
• KernelCare: Automated security updates without server reboots

• Account Isolation: Security barriers between client accounts
• Regular Backups: Automated backup system for disaster recovery

• Email Spam Filtering: SpamAssassin protection for email accounts

The 99.9% uptime guarantee ensures reliable service for your clients, backed by service level agreements and automatic account credits for downtime. A2's monitoring systems track server health 24/7, with technical teams ready to respond immediately to any infrastructure issues.

Reseller Support and Resources

A2 provides dedicated support for resellers that goes beyond standard customer support. Their Guru Crew understands reseller-specific needs and can assist with WHM configuration, WHMCS setup, client account issues, and technical troubleshooting that affects your business operations.

Support is available 24/7/365 through multiple channels:

• Priority Support: Gold and Platinum plans receive expedited assistance

This backend technical support allows you to offer professional-grade assistance without hiring dedicated technical staff.

Scalability and Growth Path

As your hosting business grows, A2 makes it easy to scale resources. You can upgrade from Bronze to Silver to Gold to Platinum plans as your client base expands, with A2's team handling account migrations and configuration transfers. The unlimited cPanel accounts on all plans mean you're never limited by account restrictions - only by storage and bandwidth allocations.

Growth options include:

• Upgrading to higher reseller tiers for more resources
• Adding additional reseller accounts for resource isolation
• Migrating to VPS reseller hosting for dedicated resources
• Moving to dedicated servers as your business reaches enterprise scale

A2 also offers VPS and dedicated server reseller options for businesses that outgrow shared reseller hosting. These options provide dedicated resources with the same white-label capabilities and management tools, supporting growth to hosting hundreds or thousands of client accounts.

Profit Margins and Business Economics

Reseller hosting provides attractive business economics with low overhead and healthy profit margins. With plans starting at $20.99/month, you can profitably offer hosting at competitive rates while building recurring monthly revenue.

For example, on the Bronze plan ($20.99/month) with 80GB storage and 800GB bandwidth, you could host approximately 30-40 typical small business websites. If you charge clients $10/month per site, you generate $300-400 monthly revenue from a $20.99 monthly cost - a profit margin over 90%. Even with conservative pricing at $5-7/month per client, profit margins exceed 60-70%.

The included WHMCS software (worth $15-20/month separately) and free migrations further improve profitability by reducing your operational costs. The white-label platform lets you build a genuine hosting brand with customer relationships that create long-term value beyond simple reseller margins.

Target Markets and Use Cases

Hosting.com reseller services are ideal for various business models and professional scenarios. The flexibility of unlimited accounts and comprehensive white-label branding supports diverse approaches to hosting businesses.

Ideal reseller customers include:

• Web Design Agencies: Offer hosting to design clients as additional revenue stream
• Digital Marketing Companies: Provide hosting bundled with marketing services
• Freelance Developers: Manage multiple client projects with centralized hosting
• Hosting Entrepreneurs: Start a hosting company without infrastructure investment
• IT Consultants: Provide managed hosting services to business clients

• Non-Profit Organizations: Offer affordable hosting to member organizations

The combination of powerful features, reliable infrastructure, comprehensive support, and attractive pricing makes A2 Reseller Hosting particularly appealing for service businesses looking to add recurring revenue streams without managing technical infrastructure themselves.

Competitive Advantages

Hosting.com's reseller platform stands out in several key areas compared to competing reseller hosts. The inclusion of free WHMCS licenses on all plans provides immediate value, as most competitors charge extra for billing software. The Turbo server performance available on Gold and Platinum plans delivers genuinely faster hosting than standard reseller offerings, giving you a legitimate competitive advantage when acquiring clients.

The anytime money-back guarantee is exceptional in the hosting industry, where most providers limit refunds to 30-60 days. This policy demonstrates A2's confidence in their reseller platform while giving you flexibility to evaluate whether reseller hosting fits your business model without long-term financial commitment.

The combination of unlimited cPanel accounts, comprehensive white-label capabilities, free migrations, and 24/7 technical support creates a complete business platform rather than just basic reseller resources. You receive the tools and support needed to run a professional hosting business, not just server space to resell.
