Posted by mh72052, 01-05-2007, 10:12 PM Ok, so because of everyone's great advice and some somewhat exhaustive research, I think I have decided to go with hostnine.com and their entry level reseller plan. Now the question is this... What up front prices am I looking at realistically? Obviously there is the $20 for the hosting plan; I assume I will need an SSL license so my clients can conduct business securely from my website. That is probably another $20 or so. What would be needed to resell domain names. I think I saw somehwere that enum requires $100 up front. It sure would be nice to offer domain names without the up front cash. Is there anything else I have missed? Is there anyway around the up front cash to resell domain names? Thanks for all the input.

(Paid usually better) chat software = do you need chat support for your client? support fees = are out outsourcing or doing it yourself? enom = 100 min SSL = price varies depending on your needs. legal aspects business license = 45-90 (depending on the county) DBA license = varies from county to county merchant account or 3rd party ? = fees are different on your decision. This is how you collect money. marketing expenses ppc = pay per click affiliate = how much will you pay per customer SEO = doing it yourself or hiring someone? These are the only things that come to mind but there are several others.
