Hi guys,
I currently have a reseller with Hostgator. Shoot me now if you want to, but I haven't really had any problems with this service thus far, apart from it being a little slow here and there. I have probably about 20 accounts on my reseller right now, so certainly not too many things going on, but I am looking to expand slowly. I currently pay $30 a month for this reseller. My budget is probably about $50 p/m.
I currently only have root access to my main cpanel account through hostgator. I want to be able to have full root access. My main priority is being able to offer a good experience for my customers that I make websites for and then host them on my server.
I currently use WHMCS to bill and manage my clients, it works nicely with cPanel and I enjoy the whole automation I have going on. Though if anyone has any better advice for client management and billing I'm very much open to ideas and suggestions, tell me what you guys do!
I have been taking a look at the likes of Media Temple, I see that offer Plesk, which is something I would have to get used to being a cPanel user myself. They also seem to include some kind of billing software, has anyone used anything aside from WHMCS? Recommendations here? Hostgator include cPanel/WHMCS so that's what I have become accustomed to and it works nicely for what I do right now. It may sound a bit like I'm enjoying my experience with Hostgator, though my shared package is rather slow and I want to get more experience with the whole sysadmin side of things, plus I have read and heard from people on Reddit to stay away from the likes of Godaddy and hostgator. That's why I'm looking for advice really!
Thanks for reading!
