[Hosting] Bulk hosting pricing/Discounted plans

6

Hi – I’m an agency partner, and I’m requesting a bulk discount on the bronze hosting plan (or all plans collectively, maybe by a certain percentage) rather than only the Quantum plan at the agency level.

All the sites I build are Elementor sites, and they are usually very small or low traffic sites, but the quantum plan does not allow for the WP memory needed to run elementor, so most sites get bumped to the Bronze level otherwise they wont work.

I really need to keep my base hosting cost down – so $4-8/mo on a site still helps me create markup when reselling the cost to clients. $12/mo+ gets a little harder to scale for low level sites.

Does WPMU offer a bulk discount on site hosting once a certain number of sites is reached? or is there a way that not only the Quantum plan, but the others as well can benefit from a small discount for agency partners too?

Many thanks-

    John ,

    I am testing Divi on their Quantum platform. It runs okay, but I don’t use them for my hosting. I would suggest looking for other options or increase your hosting price. Don’t just sell hosting, WP need maintenance to make sure it and plugins are up to date. I’m moving my customers from hosting-only to “Professional” hosting (which includes maintenance).

    Currently I’m using xHost Solutions (Australia-based) but I am looking at Cloudways to move my customers to due to safe updates and Cloudflare integration. You can get a small server and put multiple websites on it. Pretty reasonable prices, too.

    Divi allows you to purchase a lifetime license and use it on any customers you build and host. If you don’t host them, they have to get their own annual or lifetime license.
