Why reseller hosting is offered through UKNode
Reselling only works if the platform underneath it is stable, well documented and supported by people who answer quickly, because your customers experience your business through it. That is a serious commitment to a product outside our core, so reseller hosting is provided by our partner UKNode instead. They run web hosting as their main business and can offer CloudNord customers partnership pricing, white-label options, customer management tooling and migration help, while we continue to concentrate on game server hosting.
What to check before you start reselling
The attractive part of reselling is the recurring revenue. The part people underestimate is support: your customers will contact you first, at any hour, about problems you did not cause. Before you commit, work out who answers those messages, what you promise in writing, and how you handle a customer who wants a refund. Also check what happens if you outgrow the plan or want to leave, because migrating other people's websites is considerably more involved than migrating your own.
Check how far the branding goes, including the control panel, name servers and any automated emails your customers receive.
Decide what you handle and what you escalate, and write it down before your first customer rather than afterwards.
Automated provisioning and invoicing save hours every month once you are past a handful of customers.
Know how you would move accounts elsewhere before you need to, because doing it under pressure with real customers is unpleasant.
