How to Create and Sell Hosting Packages in WHM: Step-by-Step for New Resellers
Creating a hosting package in WHM means defining disk space, bandwidth, and account limits, then attaching cPanel features and a price before assigning it to a customer account. Most first-time resellers get through the actual form in under fifteen minutes once the fields make sense. The packages that make money get built differently though. They […]
How to Handle a Client Suspension Without Losing the Account: A Reseller’s Playbook
Handling a client suspension without losing the account comes down to three things: suspend for the right reason, explain it clearly the moment it happens, and give the client a fast, specific path back to an active account. Most cancellations after a suspension are not caused by the suspension itself. They are caused by a […]
Why Dedicated Servers Are Making a Comeback in the Age of Cloud Computing
Dedicated servers are gaining ground again because the cost and complexity of running steady, predictable workloads entirely in the public cloud has caught up with a lot of organizations that moved everything there by default. This isn’t cloud computing losing relevance. It’s businesses becoming more deliberate about which workloads actually benefit from the cloud’s elasticity, […]
How to Use IPMI for Out-of-Band Management on Your Dedicated Server
IPMI, the Intelligent Platform Management Interface, lets a systems administrator manage a dedicated server at the hardware level, independent of whatever operating system is installed and even when that operating system won’t boot at all. It runs through a small, dedicated chip on the motherboard called a Baseboard Management Controller, which draws standby power and […]
How to Migrate All Your VPS Clients to a Dedicated Server Without Downtime
Migrating all your VPS clients to a dedicated server without downtime comes down to preparation, not speed. Audit every website, database, and email account first. Sync files and databases to the new server before touching DNS. Test everything on the dedicated server using its raw IP address. Only then lower DNS TTL and cut over, […]
How to Configure RAID Storage on a Dedicated Server for Redundancy and Speed
Configuring RAID on a dedicated server means picking a RAID level that matches your workload, usually RAID 1 or RAID 10 for anything running a database or holding data you cannot afford to lose, then setting up the array through your hardware RAID controller or a software tool before the operating system is installed, and […]
How to Calculate Whether a Dedicated Server Is More Cost-Effective Than a Cloud Instance for Your Traffic
Calculate total cost of ownership, not the monthly sticker price, by adding your actual compute, storage, and bandwidth usage over a full year, then comparing that against a dedicated server’s flat monthly rate plus setup and management costs. As a rough rule, steady, predictable traffic tends to favor a dedicated server once utilization is consistently […]
SkyNetHosting Dedicated Servers vs Hetzner vs OVH: 2026 Comparison for SMEs
Hetzner and OVH both compete primarily on raw hardware value and large-scale, self-service infrastructure spread mostly across European data centers with expansion into the US and Asia, while SkyNetHosting competes on personalized support and configurations built around the specific needs of a growing SME rather than a one-size-fits-all catalog. None of the three is universally […]
Dedicated Server Hosting for E-Commerce: What Specifications Do You Actually Need?
Most e-commerce stores need a dedicated server with at least four to eight modern CPU cores, 16 to 32 GB of RAM, NVMe SSD storage in a RAID configuration, and enough bandwidth to handle their busiest sale day rather than their average Tuesday. A large enterprise catalog with heavy traffic can easily need double that, […]
How to Set Up Automatic Failover With Two VPS Instances Using Heartbeat
Automatic failover between two VPS instances using Heartbeat works by running Heartbeat on both servers, having each one continuously check on the other over a dedicated link, and moving a shared virtual IP address, along with the service tied to it, over to the surviving node the moment the primary stops responding. Two VPS instances […]
