how much should a reseller charge customers for resold services?

Answer by: Stuart Pierce, Aplus.Net Knowledge Base Support

Aplus.Net recognizes three types of Resellers:

·         Hosting Resellers

·         Domain Name Resellers

·         Affiliates

*An Affiliate refers customers to Aplus.Net for a commission. Customers referred to Aplus.Net by Affiliates are expected to pay regular rates for services, as published on the Aplus.Net website.

*Hosting and Domain Name Resellers buy services from Aplus.Net at a deeply discounted wholesale price. Resellers sell those services to their customers for a profit. There are no restrictions whatsoever at what prices Resellers will sell.
Example 1: Reseller XYZ is a brokerage firm and makes thousands of dollars in commissions and fees per customer from their core business. XYZ is giving away the domain name registration service as an extra bonus. There are no restrictions to giving away the service or to selling it below market.

Example 2: Reseller ABC is a church in need of funding. They sell regular web hosting at a 3x higher margin than anyone in the industry. The parishioners agree to pay the higher price to support the church. There is no restriction whatsoever on how high the price can be for the resold services.
