If you’re a professional web designer, graphic artist or programmer then finding an edge on your competition is critical. One interesting trend that some designer and artists are employing is to offer hosting services themselves. This becomes a market differentiator and helps clients to see you in more than one dimension. Another obvious benefit is that it offers an additional revenue stream that is residual. This can be especially attractive to freelancers where workload spikes and dips tend to be more extreme.

So how does it work?
The guys at Loudsign were quick to pick up on the trend and have setup a program that provides everything needed to get going. Basically a storefront is provided which offers everything required to start selling hosting, domain and many other services. The best part is that no technical skills are required and Loudsign handles all the messy things like support. In fact, if you’ve ever ordered a domain or hosting for yourself then you’re qualified. It’s really that easy. To get started or need more details, click here.

“I signed up with loudsign’s reseller program because it simply just made sense. Many of my clients need hosting services and they look to me for guidance on who they should use. I used to refer them to Godaddy or other hosting companies but now I host them myself and make supplemental income. I was a bit concerned at first that I might not be technical enough for this but I quickly realized that Loudsign handles all the technical details, infrastructure and support. They made it really easy to get up and running so that I could start referring clients to my storefront. I highly recommend the program.”
