WebFusion Updates Reseller Hosting Plans

WebFusion, a provider of shared hosting services, announced today that they have upgraded their reseller hosting plans to provider resellers with an easier way to increase their profits.

The new plan allows resellers to host unlimited sites on either a Unix or Windows based platform. Currently, new customers who purchase the plan before March 31, 2006, will receive one month free.

“Regardless of how many individual packages a reseller breaks the product down to, they still just pay one fee,” says Dan Conlon, managing director of WebFusion. “So, the more customers they are able to attract, the higher the margins. With WebFusion taking care of all server and network maintenance – regardless of platform – using this reseller package couldn’t be simpler.”
