ComfortHost, a Canadian based web hosting company, yesterday launched a reseller sponsorship program for individuals wishing to offer web hosting services.

The company stated that they will offer financing through special pricing plans in order to establish a new hosting company. Technical support would be given after assessing the skills of the candidate. Thus, they may support it technically, by giving sales and marketing advice for their niche market or even financially, with no obligations attached on the part of the candidate. The Sponsorship may even include a negotiated buyout price in case the candidate wants to draw back from business after a few years.

"Our search on the market revealed a demand of services related to reselling hosting packages and we are acting accordingly. We have a large experience with resellers: currently we count more than 50 reseller accounts using our services. This gives us a real advantage on designing an innovative program like the Reseller Sponsorship and providing a rock-solid advice to new companies," stated a company spokesperson.
