Start your own hosting business, without managing servers
For web designers, freelancers and agencies. Sell hosting under your own name, set your own prices and build recurring revenue. The technology underneath is our concern.
How does it work?How much do you want to manage yourself?
The difference is not the price but who does the work. As a partner Webosa handles everything, as a reseller we sit in the background, and with your own managed server you decide what runs on it.
Partner
You refer, we do the rest
Your customer becomes Webosa's customer. We take care of the configuration, outages and support; you only build and manage the website.
You pay nothing
To the partner programmeReseller
You sell, we stay in the background
Your customer becomes your customer. You invoice, you are the point of contact and you set PHP, email and domains yourself. Webosa stays invisibly behind you with servers, updates and backups.
From € 99 per year (± € 8.25 p/m)
You are hereYour own server
You decide what runs on it
Your own managed server at Webosa. You choose your stack and decide what runs on it; we keep the server running with monitoring and support.
From € 250 per month (± € 3,000 per year)

Exactly how reseller hosting works
Three things are easy to mix up: your subscription, your customers' hosting plans and their domain names. Here is how they relate.
Reseller subscription
Your central management environment at Webosa. This is where you create your customers and keep the overview.
Hosting plan
What a single customer uses: storage, mailboxes, databases and their own Plesk login.
Domain name
The name itself, for example customername.nl. Separate from the hosting.
How it all fits together
We run the technology. You sell under your own name. Your customer only ever sees you.
-
Webosa
Runs the servers and handles updates, security and backups.
You never see any of it -
That's you
You
You set up customers in your own environment, under your own name, and decide what to charge them.
Your customer, your invoice -
Your customer
Gets their own hosting plan and login, and only ever sees your name.
Never hears of Webosa
With 10 customers on Webosa Scale, your books look like this:
Choose your reseller subscription
Studio for 25 customers or Agency for 50. One fixed amount per year, however many customers you onboard.
You get your reseller environment
Your own management environment inside Plesk, where you manage customers, hosting plans and domains.
You create hosting plans
For each customer you pick a plan with the storage, mailboxes and databases they need.
Your customer gets their own login
Every customer manages their own site in their own panel. You keep the overview across all your customers.
You invoice, under your own name
You set the price and send the invoice. Webosa appears nowhere in your customer's environment.
Choose the capacity that fits you
Your environment costs a fixed amount per year, however many customers you put on it. For every customer you buy a hosting package from € 39, and you set the selling price yourself.

All prices per year, excluding 21% VAT and excluding domain names. View domain rates
One fixed environment. Your price per customer.
You only pay for your package, from € 99 per year. Every customer you add lowers your cost per customer, so growing gets cheaper instead of more expensive.
You choose your plan
Studio for 25 customers or Agency for 50. One amount per year, nothing else.
You fill your environment
Add as many customers as your plan allows. Every extra customer costs you nothing more.
You set your price
What you charge your customers is entirely up to you. Everything above your plan price is your profit.
Model your own scenario
Choose your environment, choose which package you resell and set your own price. You see straight away what you keep and how your cost per customer drops as your environment fills up.
Still 15 slots free, every slot you fill is pure profit at no extra cost.
profit per year
Growing fast? Reseller Agency (up to 50 customers, € 179 per year) would net you € 811 in this exact scenario.
Drag your price and the number of customers to run your own scenario. All amounts per year, excl. 21% VAT and excl. domain names.
What it earns you
5 customers on Webosa Scale, you charge € 169 per year
Five customers on Scale. The environment still costs you € 19,80 per customer, so you are already earning, but the real advantage at this stage is the management: everything in one place instead of five separate accounts.
10 customers on Webosa Scale, you charge € 169 per year
At ten customers your environment drops to € 9,90 per customer. From here those costs disappear into your margin and what mainly remains is the convenience: one panel, one invoice, one place where you arrange everything.
25 customers on Webosa Scale, you charge € 169 per year
Twenty-five customers: the environment still costs € 3,96 per customer. If you grow beyond that, you move up to Agency or we set up a second environment alongside it.
Example calculations in which you resell Scale for € 169 per year. What you charge is up to you. Amounts per year, excl. 21% VAT and excl. domain names.

- Add a new customer
- Choose a hosting plan

Room to grow
Studio runs up to 25 clients, Agency up to 50. Once your environment is full, we set up a second one alongside it on a different server, with no downtime and without moving your existing clients.
An extra environment for 50 customers costs € 179 per year.
We can see in your dashboard when your environment is filling up, and we get the extra environment ready before you run out of room.
Extra environments solve capacity, not freedom. If you want to run your own software, use a different stack or have root access, your own managed server is the next step. Server management stays with us.
