No, i don't get many buyers, I quit using it about three months ago. I just offer free hosting to myself, forums, and good friends.
I made like £15, i spent £66.00 But no-one realy makes any money the first time round...

It isnt a case of just buying a reseller and then people buying from you.

when i owned lg-hosting.com i first brought a reseller and for the first 5-6 weeks of me opening lg i had got like 11 clients.
AFter this i started advertising in Papers and on local radio stations because if the advertising i soon ran out of space on my reseller account of i brought a Dedicated server from tomsyer.net
I evently got about 90 odd clients after 1 or 2 months
In the end i had just over 200 clients bringing in a good amount of cash.

What you have to remember is it isnt just getting an email for someone wanting to buy an account them paying then you making it. You have to be around your computer as much as possible to deal with support for clients and also sorting out you money making sure you know what your making and out of that what you get to keep and what has to go back out.

I suggest if you dont know anything about WHM/cpanel (And i take it you dont as your asking people on here) you should just stick with making sites or going out and stuff as when you have a hosting company it dosnt give you a lot of free time to your self
