Is there any market for VPS reseller? Everything can be manage under reseller's control panel, except creation of vps and terminate. They can suspend, change pw, hostname, etc... Is there one who searching for this?

yes i know there is, but how large is it? We checked that keyword, monthly searches is low.

The market is surely in demand for it. I recently got my VPS Reseller package from MyHosting and so far I have got quite a bit of clients on hand already.

My only suggestion is start out small and build so you don't go wasting your resources early on.

I don't think that you should rely on the Search engines and online marketing. This is more B2B service.

Yes off course there is market for VPS reseller. I see many VPS packages have been signing up day by day.

ya, our vps received many orders per day. Just thinking to launch the vps reseller as we have the resource and everything is ready.

VPS reseller market is targeted, you may end up with big accounts/users but not many.

I don't think there is a market for it.

Why sell something that costs quite a bit to sell something that costs quite a bit?

Doesn't make sense. Leave the reselling to the smaller hosting niche.

There is defiantly a market out there for it.

I think the main problem with it is that most control panels do not offer the functionality for it as of yet.

I agree with Zany here. Swarmhost started reselling Burst VPS modules, and they sold very well, but we switched to our own because of the inherent problems of not having a reseller module similar to shared hosting. SolusVM might have solved this problem. I have not really played around with the reseller aspect, but it does have it.

There is an incredible amount of demand for virtual private servers right now - a VPS reseller program offers a cost-effective way to break into this market.

Certainly. We receive a fair amount of requests for reseller program information. Unfortunately, the reseller portion of our control panel is developed enough.

VPS hosting is pretty expensive to get into because VPS nodes are quite expensive. Ideally, you should have 1-2 quad core CPUs, RAID 1 or 10 (minimum 2/4 drives respectively), and 8GB+ RAM.
