How to handle hosting for clients - What mistakes to avoid

good clear info. how do you go about charging for your services? (backups, updates, etc) Do you rely on the hosting commission?

Thanks man!

This is the best video ever. You have just cleared all my doubts in one video.

please bro how can someone contact you

in your position, as a developer, and business, do you have any type of insurance? Are there any liabilities to be concerned about? I'm thinking of selling websites, contracting developers, and sell them, but I don't know if I need any type of protection aside from an LLC? Thanks in advance, your video is absolutely valuable. Thank you.

I swear, I am 7 minutes in the video and my brain cant get out of the scneario that Peter Parker is giving hot advices for my carreer.

What about Elementor pro and all the other tools? Do I buy them or how does it work?

hi . thank you. so one of my clients hosting and domain needs renewal and shes not interested in continueing despite a contract. ive tried since october and now its completely passed. how can i take it down. or what options are best pls

Rino, thank you so much for all these great tutorials. These help tremendously!

This video has been very informative. Also had a query on the side. In my case, what i wanted was to create personal projects from scratch and host them (MERN, MEAN etc.). And i was looking for a hosting package with multiple subdomains for a while now. Can the wordpress package be also used in this manner?

I can't emphasize how helpful this video has been to me and other. top-notch content there buddy. You got to keep up the good work. Regards from Cameroon

What happens when you install Elementor. Crockoblock etc the many paid plugins you have installed on the client site in their own server? Cancel their license and the website is useless. ? Keep charging the client for the licenses you share from you main license? It more complicated?

Do you keep the clients on retainers to keep the websites up to date and for edits they need?

So what do you think of the new Elementor hosting? Can you do these subdomains sites in it too? and what do you think about the price?

What about NameHero

Nice video. However I'd tend to disagree. Proper hosting is a big part of website performance. If something is not working, you don't want to get into a discussion with a client saying this is a hosting problem, check with the hoster. You want to have proper control and service the client better so they have one point of contact if anything needs to be done on the hosting side. That said, you should definetly make sure this is all logically done properly. I often see coleague agencies that do their customer hosting, put all the websites on one server. Apart from the (huge) security issues with that, you also can;t easily share access to tthe client and third party services they might want to bring in. So my advice here would be to find a proper hosting partner that is able to service agencies with top level accounts where the client accounts are all properly separated. This might cost a bit more then all those cheap hosting options that are out there but in the end it will translate into a better service to the clients and less hassle in case a website needs to be migrated or third party services need access.

thanks so much, another sub for you..

QUESTIONS: what about post creation services, after i created the website and the client want to add posts,images media and stuff regularly or a one time thing, how do we deal with that ??

I actually do Option 1. But I charge my clients for Monthly for Maintenance too. So if they want to change anything on the site or add an email, I do it for them. And i only use a regular hosting account for unlimited websites. Yes it can be tricky when clients leave but honestly its not a big deal. Once you grow to around 50 customers, it can be a hassle... that's when you hire staff to handle all the client request. It works but can be tricky. You need staff if you don't want hassle.

men thank you so much

bro you are the best dude,,,mehn i love you

Wow

Dude, this helped tremendously. Thanks, really.

Heeft er iemand ervaring met vimexx voor hosting en domeinen? Is dit ook een goede aanbieder, of kan ik beter kijken naar de lijst die Rino geeft in zijn video?

so If they already have a domain would I use a subdomain of mine to build the website and then use the plug-in to migrate it to them? or is there a different way or was I just not understanding what you were saying before?

Amazing content, well presented! thank you!

I'm blown away by the creativity and imagination on display in this video. It's like nothing I've ever seen before.

Another great option is giving your customer a referral link to sign up with if they don't already have their own webhost. This makes it so that they still have full control over their webhost and you usually can get a referral credit from the webhost you promote.

The simplest and most affective advice for noobs like myself. Thank you Rino!

Hi, do siteground provide reseller services

bruh, how can you recommend godaddy, it's by far one of the worst hosting companies in the market, i don't know for US/EU clients but for spanish speaking countries it's literally impossible to get in touch with their support

This video has answered all my questions. Did not even know how to formulate the questions I had in words but you somehow found the right words and examples to answer everything. Thank you!

Thanks mom!

You explain really well and soo cute! Thanks for all your help!

Buy domain and hosting from same company? i feel like that is just straightout stupid unnless you are maybe looking to make a personal site.

topgozer

Thanks for explaining, I still have a question, I have a website what I want to migrate to another web hosting, do I need an different domain name for transferring.

Thank you

idk what else you make on here but it's an instant sub

Dude you are amazing! Thanks a lot!

Question: if my clients all buy their own hosting then they also have to purchase their own plugins yes? Whereas if I offer hosting I could buy, say, elementor pro once and apply it to all the websites I manage?

that's the best video i've seen about this topic great job Rino !

Awesome video

Thanks for the info. But after reading some comments, I am still confused. I find both views valid in their own place. Telling client to do the hosting and domain part themselves is definitely hassle-free and frees you from the responsibility. But on the other hand - as some commenters below have said - most clients don't want to mess with the slightly techie or admin part, they just don't want to or don't have time, and want us to manage it all for them. In such cases, it seems like a practical thing to manage it all for them or on their behalf and charge for your know-how, time and effort. So maybe we should be flexible and instead of adopting one fixed strategy for everyone, we should decide the right approach according to the client in hand.

Excellent video, you really helped me out a lot!! 💯👏

Remember that the cons are also opportunities to make extra monthly cashflow.
