Thumbs up

I was looking at the regular hosting packages versus the resellers packages and I don't understand why there is a huge difference.

The reseller Surpass package gives only 200 MB storage and 5 GB transfer for $110 yearly while the regular hosting Deluxe package gives 2000 GB storage and 30 GB bandwidth for $100 yearly. How in the world could I resell with only 5 GB transfer and 200 MB storage?

Having the WHM added to your account is the reason the package costs more, as for the size, the first 2 reseller packages are good for 3 things only, Testing the Product and using it for personal use in my opinion, and most common, adding the ability to host sites that you create for clients.

Silver and up is the best way to go.

Thanks for the quick response EG. I guess I'll stick to letting Surpass make the hosting $ on sites that I build for clients. It's a lot cheaper for them since I would have to charge them an arm and a leg to break even if I resold.

Are you EVER away from a computer EG? I've been noticing your post times. When you sleep, how far are you from a computer? I would love to be able to have the talent time and energy to NEED a one TB computer system.

BTW, on the forbidden subject, have you heard about the new Mac G5? It can hold and RUN 8 GB of memory. It is also affordable (well kinda).
