(800) 2165 (435) 3433 Dedicated IP Hosting Dedicated IP Hosting With most Web host's, one static IP address is assigned to several domains and access to a domain is available only by its domain name. With WestHost, your Web site can have a unique and dedicated IP address. This way, access to your domain can be by either its domain name or by its dedicated IP address. A dedicated IP address is required for Anonymous FTP, your own SSL certificate, and some other IP specific applications.

Top Web Hosting You offer web hosting services. Or web design services. Or both. When your clients need domain names for their websites, do you want to send them to another site, possibly to a competitor, to register one?

Web Hosting Companies Of course not. That's part of why domain name registration is a popular service to offer. Reselling domain names provides an additional service to attract and keep clients as well as another source of recurring revenue. You can offer domain name registrations on their own or bundled with other services you provide.

Dedicated Server An advanced form of web hosting where the customer generally has complete control over the server. Dedicated Servers are typically housed in data centers. Dedicated servers may be compared to shared web hosting servers; where in shared hosting you find the web hosting company administering and control the server, a dedicated server is typically controlled by the server's owner and he or she controls which websites are hosted on the server.

Web Site Design And Hosting Features of domain name reseller programs

Email Web Hosting When you are a domain name reseller, your clients register domain names using the service accessed through your domain name reseller account. The domain name company bills you, and you bill your clients. Or possibly the domain company handles the billing.

You can choose to either register a new domain, transfer an existing, or point your domain to our Domain Name Server (DNS).

Web Hosting Plans You decide on the retail pricing, and you market your services. The wholesale prices you pay before you add your markup depend on your sales volume and on the domain name reseller program you choose.

Web And Email Hosting All of the domain name reseller companies compared in this article offer a reseller API (Application Programming Interface), which enables you to use the features provided with the domain reseller program. When your clients register domain names or update records at your site, the API communicates with the domain name reseller program system. With an API at your website, you keep the appearance and branding of your site when you resell domain names.

Web Hosting Compare Two of the domain name companies compared here offer website creation tools for resellers, which means that you can be in the business of reselling domain names within minutes of having your account set up.

Dedicated Server Web Hosting Many domain name reseller programs require the domain name reseller to pay and regularly top up a deposit for domain names. By doing this, the domain name reseller is paying for the domains in advance while making a profit from them when they're registered.
