Thank you for this amazing article!

Hello Patrick Freitas,

“There will be a too small difference between locations, with the Static cache and Cloudflare that difference would be reduced to almost no difference between but locations, but this is a nice article on how we tested the Australia server https://wpmudev.com/blog/server-location-test-australia/ in case you would like to run some tests from Brazil.”

Thanks, I think I need to take this test.

Hi Shiv,

We’re all looking forward to Automated Reseller as well. I can tell you that’s pretty much all the buzz around here.

Don’t have any dates for the release of Automated Reseller yet but we’re all working on getting the Domain Reseller feature out as soon as we can. :)

Hi Middlelab,

The mark up is from the raw cost of $12, that’s correct.

Prepaying for your hosting will give you extra credits, which will further reduce the cost between 5%-10%.

Those details should be accessible in your account: https://wpmudev.com/hub2/account/hosting-credits

Hi WPMU, so the mark up is from the raw cost of $12 still right? resellers dont have a further discount?

“”I think we all are waiting for the automated deployment part, still havent heard anything but super excited.

I think my next expansion plan is to incorporate this into my business to have value added services. Cant wait to deploy this!””

I agree Shivam Patel, I’ve been looking forward to it since 2020.

Thank you so much for yet another excellent and useful blog post – This has provided a really clean structure for setting up hosting products on my business website. I think we all are waiting for the automated deployment part, still havent heard anything but super excited.

I think my next expansion plan is to incorporate this into my business to have value added services. Cant wait to deploy this!

Thanks!

Hi Phil,

Thanks for your comment, I appreciate where you are coming from.

Prior to writing this article, we had a team discussion on how can members create hosting “add-ons” when every hosting plan we offer already comes with every feature enabled (except the newly-added hourly backups).

WAF, for example, is enabled by default on all hosting plans. The add-on in this case is to either deactivate WAF and charge to activate it (which we don’t recommend, as we want client websites to always remain as secure as possible), or provide “client visibility” to the feature as part of a “premium” package (i.e. your clients always have WAF enabled, but upgrading to your higher plan lets them see it in their client portal).

I guess my point in that section of the article was… the only item on our hosting menu is the “burger with the lot” so your option to create ‘add-ons’ as a hosting reseller is not to remove the pickles, or the lettuce, or the ketchup from their burger, but to give clients visibility to the ingredients they are already eating (“oh…there are pickles in this burger? I didn’t realize! Thanks for letting me know…I love pickles!”) :D

“This is always hard, this is one of the reasons in my responses I try to give examples that are not tech related, for example, imagine your site as a car, we can’t add a Ferrari engine to a car that is not ready for it where Ferarri engine is the website and the car structure the server, so both must match.”

Liked it.
