Customer Spotlights

Shared web hosting allows individuals and small and medium businesses to build and manage websites without technical knowledge of servers, email, or databases. A key factor to success in shared web hosting is maintaining customer loyalty and retention. As a shared hosting service provider, you can offer your services bundled with Parallels software to make it easier to provision the service and to make it more user-friendly for your clients. Parallels offers hosting providers the necessary tools to automate all of the processes associated with offering shared hosting services.

As a shared web hosting provider, you may have several hundred applications and features to manage and customize. Parallels lets you create customer service packages which can be provisioned without manual involvement. Plus, the user-friendly Parallels Plesk Panel allows your end users to manage hundreds of tasks themselves (i.e., adding an application or changing an email password), which would otherwise burden your support team.

Other manual tasks such as ordering, billing, payments, collections, and account upgrades can be automated through a pre-integrated Parallels Plesk Billing solution. And the Parallels Plesk Sitebuilder delivers a 5-step wizard for quickly creating and publishing websites without needing any design or programming skills.

Ready for the next step?

Parallels offers different shared hosting solutions depending upon the size and complexity of your business. Parallels Plesk Panel is well suited for single-server solutions. If, however, you have many systems to integrate or want to expand into other services, you would benefit more from the flexibility and growth potential delivered by Parallels Automation.

Bright Idea

Virtualize your shared hosting infrastructure to provide better management and higher reliability for your users. For example, instead of maintaining 100 customers on a single server, separate them into groups of 20 users on 5 virtual servers. By using this type of implementation, 80% of the user base is unaffected even if one customer corrupts a server since they are in an isolated virtual environment.
