Any top LET providers offering pre-configured VPS service?

I am looking for VPS providers who can provide me a order link with custom add-on so that an end-user can purchase a pre-configured VPS.

To be clear, I am not looking for a reseller VPS. What I want is a special order link which have a fixed OS and pre-installed softwares. However, a customer can select location and other spec. I will provide the initial server setup script as part of the add-on.

Once the server is provisioned and booted then my services should start so that the end-user doesn't have to do anything.

I want to be able to set a price for the add-on and generate revenue.

    So, you wanna be a reseller?

  • Not really a VPS reseller. Customer will purchase directly from the VPS provider. Also, the VPS provider doesn't need to list it in their available services. There will be just a special order link that I can share with interested audience on my own.

  • You can do this through Vultr/DigitalOcean/Linode who has easier APIs for you to work with.

    Or you can also get people to do this via SolusVM but then you'll need their actual support to help update things.

  • I am aware of DigitalOcean marketplace but I want customers to benefit from lower prices. Since my services have higher spec requirements.

    Just set up a host if you don't wanna be a reseller.

    It takes, what, half an hour to set up a host.

    You're basically trying to sell a cloud-init script.

    I want to focus on my PaaS and don't want to deal with IaaS complexities. I would appreciate recommendation for a DigitalOcean marketplace alternative by LET providers.

  • @mekr just contact a hosting provider you like to work with and ask if they're willing to work with you on a custom solution where your cloud-init script handles everything.

    Really. Might as well set up your own host at this point. Your needs are too specific for a reseller account.

    So essentially like an affiliate, with a custom setup?

    Nah, a reseller.

    Always a reseller. The dude wants to be a reseller.

    @seriesn, Exactly. The ability to collect the add-on license revenue in the form of affiliate income will be awesome.

    you get a Good DC or a few vps's from a great company to start and you offer simple hosting, i don't understand what more you are asking for.

    this kind of what i do, i don't give then root access, it's simple hosting, but more power that a big reseller package.

  • @painfreepc, I guess scaling it would be a challenge.

    We can build a template with all your custom configuration and make custom packages, order link etc. Everything will be fully automated.

    We have plenty of available resources on our i9 and Ryzen nodes.

    We might not be the top LET provider, but we are not a new provider either.

    HostCram is 6 years old now. I am packing like 9 ish years of experience myself.

  • @Shakib, Thank you for the offer. I will DM you once I am ready with the software.

    If you want to sell something (anything) and you can find someone to buy it, why not.
