Reseller Setup Tutorial
Main features of Reseller plans
Full reseller account transfer
Fill in the account transfer form in your welcome email. Jolt will take care of the rest.
[su_note note_color=”#ffa6bd”]We perform cPanel to cPanel transfers and full cPanel backups only, but not partial transfers.[/su_note]
Nameservers of choice
- Anonymous Nameservers can be found in a welcome e-mail.
- Private Nameservers
Private nameservers look like ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com. This is available free for all plans except Reseller Mini. To order private nameservers, please submit a ticket to the billing department.
[su_note note_color=”#ffa6bd”]If you already ordered private nameservers, make sure these are registered prior to use.[/su_note]
We use cPanel as control panel with WHM to manage all our shared servers. They reduce overhead by simplifying complex tasks and allowing customers to manage their accounts.
WHM management
Web Host Manager is the administrator backend and Reseller center area. Here you can add, change, and delete any hosting accounts under your Reseller plan.
You must add a hosting plan package before creating a new account. You need a package for setting account quotas (disk space and bandwidth).
