A few things about reseller hosting

A few things about reseller hosting


1. The distribution space we pursued together in those years

InnoHosting , when people mention resale hosts, they always think of it, just like when talking about vps, everyone will think of linode. It is like a benchmark in the industry, witnessing the growth and bubble of resale hosts. I vaguely remember how WHT was calling for triple space and traffic, and the number of replies is still an immortal myth in WHT. Even if you triple the traffic, $16.9 per month is only for 15GB. Today, InnoHosting still stands high on the altar. In this era of cheap or free services, it still provides stability and service, but it has become more mature with the years.

EPZ , once as famous as InnoHosting, was one of the earliest hosting providers to provide resale space in Singapore. When others recommend resale hosts, they always think of it. In this era when resale host advertisements are everywhere, it is as immersed in service as the big guys, and only passes by in the list of excellent resellers.
Site5 is a benchmark for cloud hosting. I don’t know if it is the first cloud hosting service provider, but its more than 2,800 user opinions have strongly demonstrated its irreplaceability. Unlike InnoHosting and EPZ, site5 casts a wide net, and the 19 data centers seem to confirm that it is following the same path as vps.net.
Hostgator , whether it is the distribution host or the entire Internet service industry, it is always there. It is like a standing building with a group of small IDCs sheltering downstairs. Chinese users affectionately call it "crocodile". Whether it is a high-defense host, free WHMCS distribution or Black Friday Twitter and Facebook, it is always there, and it has been talked about for many years.
Eleven2 , when InnoHosting was still using single digits to count the capacity of reseller hosts, and when some cheap hosts were still counting in tens, it had already started counting in hundreds. It should be the first reseller to have a location in Japan, and later moved to Singapore due to operational pressure. But during that period of time, every virtual host IDC person will definitely think of hostloc's repeated calls of "Who bought eleven2's Japanese data center? Test it out." Today, vps is very popular, and reseller hosts are no longer so glamorous, but eleven2's powerful promotions still show its young face.
Ariex , when ASP was still widely used in China, there were very few ASP hosts abroad, especially distributed hosts. At that time, its relatively low price and support for ASP made it very popular in WHT and Hostloc, and it often took the first place in the Windows hosts in WHS. However, ASP is no longer popular in China. I wonder if Ariex, the former fierce general, is still so brave and capable today.
Stablehost , GeekStorage , GeekStorage is just a small hosting company, but it has survived all the storms. When the original hosting companies collapsed one by one, GeekStorage was still alive and well, and its and StableHost's focus on service is still fresh in people's memory. Now, all StableHost mother hen configurations have been changed to E5 2620 CPU and small memory (16GB) to ensure performance, while GeekStorage has been upgraded to SSD early on.
2. Cheap and stable distribution hosting is coming quietly

Jonesolutions , this middle-aged uncle among hosting companies has gradually emerged over the years, and started to show its prowess with its no overselling and excellent stability. I saw it when it was still $5.99 for 5GB. This WHT was also a guy with rave reviews. Then they posted a post in the trash heap stating that it was $5.99 for 20GB. I posted it. Although he cancelled that package after a while, its return today seems to prove its growth.

3. Labor Day Mantis hosts 65% off to break through the difficulties

HostMantis , as a member of the animal host, although the Mantis host is not very famous, it still often appears in major host reviews. It is also a controversial host provider. When HostMantis fought with customers for 300 rounds in WHT, were you watching the show? I have to deny the development of the Mantis console. Although it is still small, I believe it will become a member of the animal family. Discount code ABORDAY2013

4. Cheap hosting has sprung up, and the threshold for running away is getting lower and lower, regardless of whether it is free space or not.

Limehost , as a provider that has been offering 20GB of storage for $10 per year for a long time, has to be taken seriously. Moreover, it has remained strong over the years and has become a paradise for those who want free storage. This may also indicate that an era of fierce competition among hosting distribution companies and the survival of the fittest is approaching, and hosting services may no longer be an industry where you can make money everywhere.

Hostient , as a young hosting provider, may have found it difficult to position hosting services, and decided to charge $10 per year for 100GB. I think free space providers will flock to it. The distribution host war has escalated again.
AtomHost , a Singapore host provider founded in 1996, also caused a sensation on hostloc. The reason is simple: domestic line optimization + low price. Although it is unstable, it has also brought this host provider, which has been in operation for nearly 20 years, into the sight of the Chinese people.
5. Domestic distribution hosting is no longer the only one

Weixiang Host , although Weixiang Host is also very young, but its stable service and the relatively low price of domestic distribution hosts at that time still created a small whirlwind in hostloc. In the era when domestic distribution hosts were still immature, Weixiang Host might be the key to open this door. Although Mr. Kuang seems to have faded out of the distribution host business recently, there are still many hosts with Mr. Kuang's distribution host signature on Hostloc, which can be said to have very good stability and reputation.

It is hard to tell who is right and who is wrong between Hello Weimo , Mr. Lu and 8QE, but I don’t know whether Hello Weimo’s low-price distribution is the clarion call for the proliferation of low-price consoles in China. I only know that it is impossible for Mr. Kuang to be the only one dominating the distribution of consoles in China. It is full of youth and vitality.
At the beginning, 28 yuan for an Itanium host might not even buy a 100MB virtual host, but now the resale host is only this price. This is a means of promotion by the host vendors. I don’t know whether it is right or wrong, but the benefits are indeed real.

6. With low-price distribution rampant, is this the era of the distribution host bubble?

Running away and going bankrupt is a topic in every era, but I wonder if it will become the main theme of this bubble era. There are hundreds of thousands of reseller hosting providers, and it is unknown how many can survive in this era of fierce competition. No skills are needed, and no threshold is required. Primary school students can also start hosting and reseller businesses. With 50 cents in their pockets, they can become hosting providers. Not only VPS is at the forefront of the storm, but also reseller hosting is doing this and that. The road ahead is like a small boat in Bermuda...

7. The beacon of hope always shines

Looking up at the sky, there are strong winds and heavy rain. Perhaps this is also a good thing. Only those console vendors with great reputation and who work hard can survive in this era. In this era full of deception and distrust, there is always a group of people who silently touch their hearts and follow their own unswerving path. Survival of the fittest. I don't know how many old console vendors will fall and whether the new army will rise and fall like the tide. The dawn after the rainstorm may be a blooming of flowers.
The distributed hosting has witnessed the development and changes of the Internet service industry, which is mixed with too many things that cannot be explained, as well as the clarity of a generation of hosting companies. Perhaps the once talked-about safe hosting will never come back, and perhaps the figure of University A will disappear like a wave in the wind after many years, taking our youth with it, leaving only a few traces under the mottled stone tablet.
Here I sincerely hope that the distribution hosting industry will get better and better and develop in a positive and healthy direction.
