I can't beleive I got an email yesterday saying that the company that I resell for has gone into receivership. They will be down by the end of the week. I do web design and have quite a few customers that have purchased web space from me. I will have a few unhappy customers if I don't do a clean switch over right away. Now there are TONS of reseller programs out there. I was hoping I can pull from the experience of you all to find a descently priced reseller plan that offers all the goodies. Any help is appreciated: Mark

you want to sell off the customers or host them yourself?
Posted by sammy, 06-13-2000, 04:24 AM
I would like to still host them myself. Although the other message posted did intrigue me a little. I would basically need another DESCENT hosting company with a great reseller plan. AND QUICK !

Mark - saw your post in the other forum as well. I'll ask again here, in case you don't check back there: can you name the company? Anyhow, you'll find all kinds of reseller programs (ours included), but without knowing what kind of plan you had previously, it's hard to say whose terms would be most agreeable to you.

Annette, that is why I asked him if he was just looking to sell the customers. He wasn't very specific about what he actually needed, other than something fast Mark, you need to post just a tad more details about what your client's sites require. Unfortunately, doing something like this quickly, is almost never the best thing. Doing somthing temporarily until the best solution can be found is another thing. I have servers coming on later this week, but am not sure they will be up in time to help you out. If they go up, I will gladly get you through the temporary phase until you find what you are looking for. (Buy you another couple of weeks, but like I said, it is too close to call).

Sammy, I really feel your pain! That's terrible.. I will be happy to work with you on the rush you are under. Without knowing what you need I can't guarentee it, but I can probably handle what you need and get started (perhaps finished?) on transfers this evening. Catch me on my site after 4:30 Central today (or any time tomorrow) with Human Click and we'll see if we can work something out either temp or permanent. ------------------ Chuck Fox No setup charges! http://cfoxhost.com [This message has been edited by CFoxHost (edited 06-13-2000).]

Sammy if there is anything we can do to help, let me know. We have several development companies who host through us. Contact me with what you need and I'm sure we can work something out. We are currently hosted with Alabanza and I feel particular that they (Alabanza) can transfer the domains from his server to ours with little or no downtime. ------------------ Mike Astin WebAuthorities sales@webauthorities.com
