Need help with GoDaddy Resseller!

[Jakey]

Hello! I have a few questions about the godaddy reseller!
1. Can you change the prices of your domains?
2. Is the privacy policy & ToS pre-written ? and if someone wants to take legal actions about a domain, would I have to forward them to godaddy.com or what?
3. I saw geek-domains.com had a phone number to call, is that his or godaddys?
4. Could i make it so they can only pay for a domain via p-a-y-p-a-l?
5. Is there an admin page?
6. Is it easy to use, and does it take long to install on your domain? like do you need a mysql DB?
7. fraud...if someone paid via fraud p-a-y-p-a-l what can I do? does the money first get sent to me or godaddy? if its sent to godaddy can I get fined or anything? please explain this feature! (But isnt it impossible to use a fake p-a-y-p-a-l account on a "httpS://www.yorusite.com" link?)
8. Do you need to provide the space to host your customers on?
9. Are you allowed to use adsense on your sites?
Please help me and explain these!!! Im interested in the first reseller for 99$ a year.

1. Yes, you can. For example, for .com domains you can set the price between $7.85 and $29.00
2. Godaddy takes care of everything.
3. See number 2.
4. No, I don't think so.
5. Yes, where you set up prices, the storefront layout, ...
6. It takes about 5 minutes :P
7. See number 2.
8. See number 2.
9. Yes, sure.

Please help me and explain these!!! Im interested in the first reseller for 99$ a year.

Can be cheaper than 99$ if you buy it from a super reseller. Can't remember any right now, but PM if you are interested.

I've remembered one super reseller website:
http://starsolreseller.com/

The basic reseller will cost you $90.00 there.

Thanks! TR updated

So i dont need to buy hosting from them? and it takes like 20mb space?

Do i make any money off it?

And the super reseller...wouldnt it be safer to buy at godaddy + ssl certs? thanks!!

And i saw securepaynet.net do they host you or what? like do i get a hosting account from them or what? if so is it cpanel?

AND ALSO! If i buy the reseller...do i HAVE to pay for hosting by them?

Except changing some colors and columns in the storefront, you have no access to other parts. So you don't need hosting. And they now give you some free spaces to add one page (homepage is recommended) if you like, so you can use your domain not just redirecting it to http://www.securepaynet.net/#(*@&^&# yourid/
I recommend you buy it from WWD, not any of the super reseller. If you want to be a reseller, be the parent, not the son.

I used to be a WWD reseller, and I quit in a month and got my refund. Because I didn't see any future on this, personally I like reseller programs of Enom and resellerzomm, because you can use your site and resell, and your customers even don't know the company behind you. It looks more professional.

But it is up to you. Just IMO. Good luck!

I was just about to post the same thimg, Although I have never tried any other resellers mentioned. As far a Adsence I dont see how you can add it to your reseller account Unless it's changed since I was there.

My over all thoughts about WWD is it's OK if you aleady have a customer base. Other wise you will need to spend $$$ to advertise your site name
If you read the FAQ's on WWD they explain everthing you asked.

Watch them tho, I bought a SuperReseller about 7 months ago and
they told me I could sell the domains for what ever I wanted and
understood I was going to sell them for $6.75 and that was OK.
Once they got my money they said I couldn't sell them that cheap
and the salesperson (2 different ones actually) shouldn't have
told me that..
And they don't refund monry, after I told them I was going to charge it
back and they could kiss my ass they finally did refund it..
I could have sold 75% if not more of the AdultWebmasters if they'd
have kept their word...

Now I pay $8.75 at Network Solutions and don't worry about any
bullshit, I'd rather pay a couple dollars more and have my own
salesperson allthe time a phone call away....

Web.com also sold me domains and right before I was going to renew
some a few weeks before they died they upped the renewel fee from
$6.95 per to $13.95 so beware of them also..

No. I just need about 10Kb, but you may need more if you "design" your layout (take a look at http://fxdomains.com/ )

Do i make any money off it?

Not much, depends on the margin you set and the domains you sell.

And the super reseller...wouldnt it be safer to buy at godaddy + ssl certs? thanks!!

I think it's equally safe if you buy from the super reseller.

And i saw securepaynet.net do they host you or what? like do i get a hosting account from them or what? if so is it cpanel?

Yes. No. No, you just set prices, color, and product you want to set, and that's it.

AND ALSO! If i buy the reseller...do i HAVE to pay for hosting by them?

No.

If you want to be a reseller, be the parent, not the son.

I agree.

True.

Plenty of options for being a Reseller of domains and Related services
The beggest problem for most resellers is the Limited scope of options avalable.
I Had to signup as 5 differnt resellers to offer all the products my customers
required

Godaddy is not alone in their attitude, I Have had similiar experiences with most companies
You have to weigh up all the options,Advantages a particular program
offers,against the dis-advantages.
For example ,I will list my agreements

1/ Planetdomain.com Great Reseller Site , but Product line-up is Small
(No .NZ ,European tld Way too Expensive )
[WebName4.us,WebName4.com.au]
2/ Netregistry , Great .au & .nz pricing
( no reseller site provided, gTLD's Way too Expensive)
[WebNames.AU.COM]
3/ Directi , (Don't ask , WORST SERVICE KNOWN)

4/ NameBin.com (directi reseller , Best Service for .in tld's)
[WebName4.in]

5 BottleDomain.com.au (Strange company ,They say they are a registrar ,Planetdomain claims them as one of their reselllers)
(My first reseller agreement:- Not active)

So which is the one I use the most ,None .
I Buy most of my domains at either Godaddy or Registerfly.

Registerfly doesn't offer a suitable Reseller Agreement at present othrwise I would be a RegFly Reseller in a flash.
(I have purchased 1100+ Domains thru them )

Godaddy has a good product mix.
Their service is excellent and pricing is reasonable.
I myself have been investigating signing for a Godaddy super reseller agreement.Their TOS is no worse than Most .

Only you can make the decision to sign with them , you should be addressing your concerns with WWD & Godaddy . BOB Parsons is very straight forward and will allay your concerns.
