I don't like all these added features to cPanel that allows more free items to customers only for cPanel to justify their prices to us hosts. The only people making more money is cpanel. Features that you as a host can upsell from other providers and now available as part of cpanel, so you...
what gets me is AutoSSL is free and normally auto set up when you create an account in your WHM, but in WHM it still have the buy SSL feature. I disable the buy SSL feature and only use Auto SSL for blogs etc.
as i sell SSL from as little as £10 per year. it amazes me the amount of...
The issue with AutoSSL is that is renews every 60 days.
but at the end of the day, we are in a business to make money, why give clients a free SSL that is constantly being renewed.
AutoSSL is just a basic DV, which is not recommended if you have a commerce website etc.
Sadly everything comes at a cost.
How many hosts will look and find clients using outdated scripts, and no matter how many times you explain to them they need to update these for security reasons and they dont bother so it ends up with you updating the scripts. Your time cost money, so i will...

WHMCS is not charging you more money as you make more money. it charges you more depending on how active clients you have.

$44.95 for upto 500 active clients
so say you have 250 clients each paying $5 per mth hosting thats $1,250 per mth revenue, so take...
exactly as works out 0.12c per active client. when working out hosting plan prices all these should be taken into account when working out what you are going to charge.
you will find that most fraudsters wont charge back they will just move to another host. but simple if they chargeback/dispute then you provide the fraud evidence to payment provider. if they still go in their favour then you tell the provider you will pass this onto UK authorities along with...
I worked out that most money is made by hosting rather than domains as a lot of people bring their own domains, so kept my domain prices as low as possible (as long as i covered the fees)
Not Really as just like a web host you can set up with another DC and just move everything over. No company has a hold over you, they may think they have but let your feet do the talking.
I used to get a lot for AWS and OVH and when reported i would just get ' we have checked and it does not originate from us' until i send then spamcop reports and they change to ' yes we have found the originator and contacted them to stop' to me when they do this its clear that they are...
