If you are a web developer looking forward to setting up your own reseller hosting then this lesson will guide you step-by-step in creating your own reseller account on a Dedicated Server or VPS of Sangkrit.net.

What is a Reseller Account?

A reseller account is a special account created from WHM of a Dedicated Server or VPS. It is a cPanel account with more privileges.

The system allows reseller accounts access to a limited version of the WHM interface, which allows them to manage the cPanel accounts that they sell.

A reseller can allocate system resources on individual cPanel hosting accounts and then sell them to his clients.

To start up with a reseller account, you must own a Dedicated Server or VPS. Read our lesson on configuring a server at Sangkrit.net to start with WHM and cPanel.

How To Manage Reseller Accounts?

You can manage reseller accounts using one of the following WHM user interfaces:

• The Resellers section (Home -> Resellers) provides you access to all of the reseller features.
• The Reseller Center interface (Home -> Resellers -> Reseller Center) allows you to add or remove reseller privileges and provides links to all of the other reseller features.

By default, the system grants a set of limited privileges to reseller accounts. But you can add more privileges to any reseller account using the Edit Reseller Nameservers and Privileges interface present in Home -> Resellers -> Edit Reseller Nameservers and Privileges section.
