Im really considering signing up for a reseller account so that I can sell on hosting...

Anyone have any advice or tips about setting this up. Perhaps any important things I need to consider.

Thanks

make sure the reseller account has a good admin panel, my servers have plesk and it works great. gives you a master login and then you can create seperate restricted logins for your clients.

and try to offer a stats program by default like awstats.

also you need to figure out how you want to recieve payment, credit card processing etc.

I aint got a clue. I was just thinking of adding a solo card when paying for it. Coz i think you have to add one there when you #are making the payment. Coz my step dad has a credit card registered on his but it still asked for it

yeah its probably a security step to make sure the person paying is actually the right person
