Reseller Hosting is one of the most lucrative hosting solutions, allowing you to establish your own web hosting business and sell hosting services to your customers. As a Hosting Reseller, you can purchase a Reseller Web Hosting account from your parent web hosting company in bulk and divide those solutions amongst your clients as per their personalised web hosting needs and requirements. 

In this hosting service, most of the backend tasks, including server maintenance and management, security updates, performing regular backups, and more, are handled and managed by your hosting company. This allows you to focus on growing your hosting business and serving quality hosting solutions to your customers. 

However, as a reseller, you are responsible for managing your customers and customer accounts and subscriptions. When choosing your Reseller Hosting account, you can choose between Linux Reseller Hosting or Windows Reseller Hosting solutions based on your specific requirements. For ease of management of your hosting account, you get control panels with your Reseller account. Linux Reseller Hosting comes with a cPanel. Similarly, Windows Reseller Hosting providers provide a Plesk Panel, allowing you to manage domains, create customer accounts, or add customers. 

This article discusses what Reseller Panel and Reseller Panel management are and how to add a customer to your Reseller Plesk Panel. 

What is a Reseller Panel in Plesk? 

A Plesk Panel is an effortless way to start your web hosting venture and maintain and manage it efficiently through a convenient Graphical User Interface (GUI). Plesk allows you to manage your customer accounts, set up hosting offers, and do other tasks to help you grow your hosting business. 

This Plesk GUI is divided into two critical sections: Reseller Panel and Customer Panel. 

Reseller Panel allows you to set up and manage your Web Hosting Reseller business. It allows you to create hosting solutions, create customer accounts, manage customer subscriptions, and more.  

However, a Customer Panel allows your customers to add mailboxes, domain names, edit web content, and perform other tasks and routines within their customer accounts in the Customer Panel.

Let us see how you can manage your business through Reseller Plesk. 

What is Plesk Reseller Management? 

Taking care of Reseller Management with Plesk allows you to manage your web hosting business from one place efficiently and hassle-free. 

It allows you to: 

• Quickly and easily configure your service offerings.
• Update your hosting prices.
• Create a new web hosting package with ease. 
• Manage customer subscriptions, billing, and more. 

How to Add a Customer to the Reseller Plesk Panel? 

Follow the steps discussed below to add a customer within your Reseller Plesk Panel: 

1. Log in to your Plesk Panel. 
2. Click on the “Customers” option under “Hosting Services” on the page’s left sidebar. 
3. Click on “Add a Customer” to add a new customer to your panel. 
4. Fill in the mandatory information required within the Contact Information section. 
5. Add a relevant description in the textbox under the “Information for the administrator” field. Your customers won’t be able to see the information within this description. 
6. Under the “Access to Plesk” section, enter the correct Username and Password within the respective fields. Then, in the “Repeat password” field, reenter the same password entered in the Password field. 

Ensure that the entered password is strong and alphanumeric. Then, click on “Generate” if you want to use an auto-generated password instead. Otherwise, you can manually enter your own password. 

7. Your customer for whom you create an account will use these login credentials to access their particular Customer Panel. 
8. Select the “Activate account by email” checkbox if you wish to send an account activation link to your customer via email. 
9. The “Create a subscription for the customer” checkbox is checked by default under the “Subscription” section. In case you unselect this checkbox, your customer won’t be able to log in to their account or Customer Panel. 
10. Enter your customer’s domain name in front of the “Domain name” field. 
11. Below the “Domain name” field, a default IP address will be shown. 
12. Now, enter the same Username and Password you had entered in the “Access to Plesk” section. Then, in the “Confirm Password” field, reenter the same password. Again, ensure the password is strong and alphanumeric. 
13. From the dropdown menu, choose the suitable “Service plan”. 
14. Below, you will find a checkbox. If you select this checkbox, it will lock the subscription for syncing. Hence, it is recommended not to select this checkbox. 
15. Below this checkbox, you can add a relevant description in the textbox provided. This description will only be visible to the Plesk Hosting Reseller or Plesk administrator. 
16. Check the “ Secure the domain with Let’s Encrypt “ checkbox under the “Secure with an SSL/TLS Certificate” section. This selection allows you to secure your domain with a Let’s Encrypt SSL Certificate. 

You must ensure that your domain points to the server. Once you successfully add your customer to Plesk, you can install Let’s Encrypt SSL. 

17. Finally, click on the “OK” button. 

You have successfully added a customer to your Reseller Plesk Panel. 

Conclusion
