IMHO, I have found many companies’ reseller plans give us a minimum resource (RAM/CPU) usage.
They give us a 2% to 25%. we need to control our customers’ usage within that limit. If anything happend so when we sleeping, our account suspended.
Our account will be suspended for our customers!
There is any really good companies without those kind of pains?
Which company give a hi usage limitations for reseller plans? Please help me out with your experience.
Thanks
Oh. I’m sorry. It remains active so that’s why I decided to post in.
This thread is marked as 3 months old. I do not think he will return here.
I assume yes as he thanked everyone here. I any case if he has a problem he will return here and ask.
Who did you decide to host with?
thank you guys!
(sorry for late reply)
thanks everyone!
finally, could anyone please your recommendation or advice to decide one?
can anyone share your experience with those companies? or which gives a high (or better) usage limitations for reseller plans?
If you want to be free to control your own resource usage and not subject to sudden termination for arbitrary rules, then get your own server or a VPS account.
Hi everyone!
there is no one which provide a high (or medium) usage limitations on reseller plans?

It depends on what high or medium means. Do you think that 5% constant usage is a small amount? If everybody gets to use 5%, then the server probably can only host reliably about 10 resellers. If the host is to make a decent profit and advertise its services, the cost for that reseller account could well be $100+. 
If you’re allowed up to 25% usage, this is because the host is lenient and betting on customers not doing that simultaneously. The more generous the host, the higher the chances of server instability.
Our account will be suspended for our customers!
Most hosting providers only suspend the end user account that causes issues. Are you saying that your own account is the one causing trouble?
hostgator gives 25% resource usage (as on his pre-sales chat).
but eleven2 told 65% resource allowed! is it true? and is it better for on reseller plan? (AIK, they did not mention it on their TOS. but, sales chat told.)
eleven2 gives a more bw than hostgator.
webhostingbuzz gives 99.95% uptime. is it really true? review sites shows its uptime is between 90% - 99.8!
logicweb = 99.99% uptime on network, 99.9 on server (web,ftp,…) ; and a few good features; price is low.
I’m confused. which is better?
Yes, one of my friends reseller account suspended by his (customer) end user’s website which contains mini downloadable flash games. (that site is not more than 3 gb!, the reseller account’s webspace is 150gb!).

That’s just a monetary guarantee. Look in the terms of service for what it really means.

but eleven2 told 65% resource allowed! is it true?
Hostgator’s policy is 25% for up to 90 seconds. Still, it doesn’t mean they will let an end user use 20% day in and day out, just as it doesn’t mean that eleven2 will allow 50% constant usage.
65% is quite high for the entire server, not to mention for 1 user, but it should not be an issue to allow it for a very short while.

That is not a fair policy. As I said, reseller hosting providers will suspend end user accounts, not reseller accounts, unless the reseller is not following the TOS (e.g. offering free hosting even though it is expressly forbidden).
Thank you very much ldcdc for your useful replies.
Mainly, I want higher uptime. and a service which acts more flexible on reseller accounts.
iWeb said “0 downtime”. anybody experienced it?
You may want to ask test account from them? I think that would better.
Thanks for your replies.
“0 Downtime” is possible?
0 downtime is only guaranteed with multiple DNS servers, multiple web servers, and near-instant failover code.
“0 Downtime” is possible?
For a (relatively) short while, yes. For 10 years? Unlikely. The longer the time span, the more chances for the unexpected/unforeseen to take place. This can be a natural disaster, or a failure of systems to behave as planned, an upgrade (keeping up with technology) revealing compatibility issues etc.
Then you have the costs involved. You need servers all over the world, essentially multiplying the costs. For most websites the gains are not worth it, compared to what regular hosting can achieve (99.9%+ long term uptime, from a good host). There are few businesses online that couldn’t survive an 8 hours or even a 24 hours downtime (which is a small disaster). It will result in lost business, but limited. Customers can and many will come back to order later, when the site is back up.
That is possible. But that is not what ca be guaranteed for you. As rule web hosting companies offer 99.9% uptime guarantee.
