We are finally to the fun part! In this video, I walk through how to purchase your server and get started with adding clients so you can generate passive income.
Genius! How did I not come across this earlier - I have been struggling with creating a host and domain for clients and then finding a way to get them to pay for it, really banging my head against a brick wall. This is a crazy plot twist, as you pay one-off monthly fee for server space and the rest is money in the bank. Thanks for sharing and wish you all the best with your businesses.
Thats great explanations uptill now.. what if we buy a VPS then upon that we start a Hosting Company business ??
HI Bryce how can you divide the storage size for the clients for example you have 75GB and you have around 60client so every client will get around 1.5GB so here the question
1- do you think that will enough while another hosting website provides unlimited storage size so will quite difficult to compete
2- what about the cost of how you price your hosting services for example lets say how much for 1GB ?
So I run numerous businesses and have recently started the quest to expanding into website hosting for my clients. I would like to transfer everything for my businesses back to my company when i do this. Can you briefly explain if this move is something I can do and maybe how?
i have a question here, I'm not US citizen, how to know server locations in my country and how to choose from them?
Hi Bryce, great series! Do you have to necessarily build your clients a website or do you just host them?
It’s not required, but it’s obviously easier to find new clients if you can also build them a site too. Usually it goes hand in hand.
Do you have a web hosting design portfolio site?
Hi Bryce, thank you for your videos!
I have a question about server location. You said you live in Idaho and you bought one in Michigan, but I see that A2 hosting also has a server in Arizona. I would assume that it would be better to choose the one in Arizona except if your clients are in the east coast? My question is did you know where your clients would be before and purchased it knowingly? And if you have in the end more clients is other states can you change easily the location of your server? Thank you for your help!
It really doesn’t make *that* big of a difference. I had a lot of clients initially on the east coast, so that’s why I chose Michigan. But now I have clients nationwide and it hasn’t been an issue.
@@BryceMathesonThank you!
shocked i actually already knew everything and could skip through the videos to here!
Ar S That’s great! That means you’re well on your way.
What keeps you or someone else from hacking into your clients accounts and filtering their cash out? As a re-seller is it possible to gain access to clients websites?
hallo everyone, i have a question can you also host wordpress websites on reseller hosting?
someone plz respond ty.
Is HostGator good for reseller??
Hi Bryce thanks for all the information, I have a question I'm from Chile so what resellerhost do you recommend for hosting web for al south america? Thanks you.
Hi Macast. A2 Hosting has servers in America, Europe, and Asia. Europe would probably be the closest location to you.
Can we chat on LinkedIn to clarify
@@henrytechs clarify what friend?
In hosting
Hi Bryce, thanks for the video. Am in Ghana, West Africa. Can you recommend any hosting company for me. Thanks
I recommend A2 Hosting to anyone. They have data centers all around the world.
Why didn't you set up a reseller account on Namecheap?
I take it from your videos that I would be paying for shared hosting and a domain name?
MustaWizard yup. Exactly. The cheapest reseller plan is about $10/mo. And a domain name is typically $12/yr. So you’ll be around $12/mo to start. But your very first client will cover all those expenses, and then every client after that will be pure profit.
Hi Bryce, so for the A2 hosting it’s giving me a one time 51% off. Does that mean I will have to pay double next time I pay for it? I wanted to just get one month to start to try it out, but I’m concerned that if I go back to renew its going to be considerably more expensive the next time
I was also curious what sort of pitch you used the first time you spoke to the digital marketing company? Additionally, what method did you use to contact them? I would imagine if I called a company up I would end up speaking initially to someone at the front desk, just wondering how I would get to speak to the right person and say the right thing. Thank you so much!
Hi Kay. Sorry for the late reply. A2 Hosting will give you a discount if you purchase a longer term up front. So yes, once that term ends, you'll be bumped up to the normal rate. It's unfortunate, but how it is.
Great info man! But how do you get clients? Do you think people on Instagram will be willing to pay for this?
If you got the answer for this question by yourself after some researches, you are good to go into hosting business
Everybody is looking for a website. You will get clients if you're looking for them.
Can you web host for websites where the person wants to blog? Do you have a video about this?
Sure you can! The process would be the same. Just set up Wordpress for them as a blog.
I couldn't understand the part where you have to change your domain name servers, DNS, Why is that? why not leave them as they are?
qustion there are new plans called turbo do i need those can u make a new vid?
and there is blesta and whmcs i hope i dont by the wrong one i know u use whmcs
75 GB storage of Reseller account? you said only 17GB were used on 45 clients😱Can you tell me if anyone ask me to give them 40GB space on hosting so i will be done on 2 customer. Do you give each customer 500mb as your said 17GB on 45 clients. Does even 1GB space is good for e-commerce???. I saw so many hosting websites, they offer minimum 5GB and also unlimited plans either. How that possible. plz answer bro i am very confused
Hey thanks for your vids they're great. 2 questions. I'm seeing a huge difference in price from a2. Double what I see on your vid. Second I currently have a shared hosting server where I host several friends websites. I've even got one thats a small start up business site. Why can't one just do this? These are simple sites . I just ask people to pay their share of the cost so not for profit. Thanks
What differences are you seeing in pricing? I would definitely start charging for profit. That’s the only way to do business.
@@BryceMatheson I don't see Bronze Silver Gold. I see Kickstart , Launch, Grow and just for example I see Gold on the vid is $18.13 USD and on their site the "Grow" which is the same specs as the Gold from video is $34.99 USD. Well, I thought to myself if I can host these 4 sites what if I could do more and maybe turn a little profit. But I'm on a Shared server account that has unlimited websites allowed. I currently have 4 sites with different domains on there. Mine, wife, friend and small business for my wife.
@@iflynina Ah, yes, you're correct. A2 has updated their pricing since filming this video, which is unfortunate. I still recommend them, though. While you can have 'unlimited websites' on your shared hosting, you can't have unlimited cPanels, and that's a big deal. Each individual client needs to have their own cPanel so as to not co-mingle files and databases and such.
@@BryceMatheson Thanks for the response! Thats what I was figuring.
@@BryceMatheson So do you set up the clients in WHMCS and bill them that way, but then you manage the WHMCS accounts?
Hey Bryce, I registered my domain on the spot with A2 hosting. How can I change my name servers?
Jorge Gutierrez Easy. You just have to go into your domain settings within A2 and update them there. Though, if you purchased your domain through A2, it’s possible they’re already set properly. Do a Whois lookup to verify.
@@BryceMatheson They were! Thanks.
Hey Bryce, I bought my domain from namecheap, and it won't let me change name servers. It says "something went wrong" and doesn't specify. Any tips?
Hey Damien. Sounds to me like this is something specific to NameCheap. I'd reach out to them for support. Updating nameservers is a pretty standard thing, so it's got to be an error on their end.
@@BryceMatheson Yup. that's what it was. Thank you. For anyone using namecheap who might get stuck on this part, make sure you paste the name servers WITHOUT the IP addresses. Still new to this :)
@@damien_murphy your comment helped me! Thank you so much!
@@kerstancantrell 🤟🤟 good luck
Can you host other stuff than websites?
Web hosts limit you. But always ask if they allowing hosting of other content
yo bro might i ask what's the minimum amount i need to invest in this cause i'm quite young
MustaWizard You can get started with as little as $10/month.
Did you start it? How is it going?
@@Antnix732 not worth it in my opinion UNLESS you have like 10-30 dollars to spare yet, I'm in education still so I don't have that lol
how hard is it to find clients?
The first ones are always the hardest. It gets a lot easier after that, though.
@@BryceMatheson Yeah I figured, that's always the norm haha. One more question, is it possible to purchase a lot of domain names at the same time, which means purchasing the servers for them, and thus increasing the number of clients you have and allowing you to make more money over time? I hope that made sense
@@adriano1309 I would recommend bulk purchasing domain names. Things change. Just buy them as you need so as to not waste money.
Their cheapest hosting package as of today is at $18.99/mo
Yeah I was bummed when I saw that
Yeah I was bummed when I saw that
You gotta be careful too when ordering hosting. Usually it's highly discounted when you order 2yrs +
i thought you have your own physical server🙄
I do have a server at home. But that’s because I’m a big nerd. Most people don’t so just rent one. It’s cheaper anyway.
@@BryceMatheson bro can i do business with a home server 🤪
is it possible and what language should i learn for that
@@motivees3934 PHP.
Went through so many videos just to learn so less!!
Have you looked at Hostgators Baby plan? They allow unlimited websites? Could this be used for hosting my customers?
