Selling Domains and Shared Hosting Seperately

[The Stealthy One]

They sure do.
Initial cost is $100.00 (every year) for the basic account, plus the cost of domain name.

You cannot create your own packages. Payment for what you sell does not come out of the $100.00 like a wallet type of thing. The customer pays WildWest and you get a commission. Commission checks are issued every month
(going back two months) $5.00 for minimum payout.
You have to purchase the SSL certificate. (You need this to have the account)

Many of the programs that you or your customers can get free at RSP their is a charge. The only kind of web building program they have is Website tonight and that is a hosting package in itself. The learning curve is not very user friendly.
(Oh yes they do give you a template for your store and you are not able to do many things with it. When you purchase your own hosting, if you take a basic package you won't have .php)
After being with WildWest for almost 4 years in one capacity or another, I swithced to the free RSP and cPanel.

You are correct on all of your points. Looks like you have done your research well. So as you can see, WWD is not a valid competitor to RSP. Their customer service sucks as well! (Let's just say they like charging you for services you never purchased!)

It is not research as experience. As I said I was with them for several years.
I must say one thing. the phone customer service is great if you don't mind sitting and holding on line for a long time. Ticket system stinks and it makes you feel initially like a complete imbecile. (Standard scripted replies to every question till you get totally frustrated)
In the event that you want to transfer, make sure that you do not do a single change in your account information. They will hold you up for 60 days. They do not tell you that if you add some domains to your hosting package, every time that you change a style on one it will automatically change it on all the domains in your hosting package. When this happens they will tell you that you need to upgrade to a higher package.

Wow, then they must have changed since I was a WWD reseller (2006). At that time, phone support was very rude and unprofessional.
