I've heard of nothing but bad experiences from people who have used resellers or hosts that allow reselling.

They're not reselling. They leased a server from rackshack:

What's that have to do with us?

As Hayama-kun kindly pointed out, we have leased servers from RackShack an Ev1 company and also from Catalog.

Who doesn't allow reselling? I'm sure any host would allow you to resell their services. Whether they have a reselling plan available or not... I.E. affiliate program, refer a friend - get a free month of hosting, etc.

Also, considering that we haven't even launched our hosting plan and area for reseller's yet, what gave you the impression that we even allowed reselling?

Rackshack allows users to resell webspace. Read their AUP.

Besides, it's only 200 MB and 10 GB, users that use the reselling will probably give it to their friends and/or family.

What does this have to do with Master Sites? You lost me on this one...

Well, Rackshack allows you to resell your space and in turn, you allow your users to resell their space for whatever legal purpose.

We have a dedicated server that is leased. If RackShack made some kind of restriction that prevented us from adding additional sites, then we couldn't be a web host, could we?

If you were referring to this:

"Also, considering that we haven't even launched our hosting plan and area for reseller's yet, what gave you the impression that we even allowed reselling?"

I was talking about Master Sites. We don't have a reseller's plan yet, so I would like to know what made "pixxxie" post his original message.

What RackShack says about reselling in their AUP, really has nothing to do with us.

 

[Archbob]

Not bad, but terabyte offer twice that bandwidth at the same price.

 

[Synergy]

But terabyte is a big boy and can offer that bandwidth where they can afford.
