On May last year, I want to have an online business, to increase my side income :). I do not know why, then finally I choose to be a reseller of GoDaddy, a famous company provides domain names registration and web hosting. There was four type of reselller : Basic, Pro, Super and API reseller. I bought a plan, Super Reseller, which I can be a Pro resller and sell Basic and Pro too. I costs about $219 and I can get a domain name with $2.24, not bad.

With 219 bucks I got some “freestuffs” like Pro Reseller Plan, Deluxe Email, Online File Folder, Turbo SSL Subscription, Traffic Blazer and also Google Adsense worth $250. GoDaddy send me separate email about Google Adsense Credit.

But, an incident occurred. They refunded all my 219 bucks to my Paypal account, an email about it also came in my inbox. The suspect that a fraudulent transaction using my Paypal account. I was angry at that time. I never use other people credit card and similar crime. Then after I check my account,I realized that there was a discrepancy between my Paypal account address and the address I typed when create GoDaddy account. My Paypal address is Singapore, but m]when I signed up I was using my hometown address in Indonesia. So, I informed this condition to GoDaddy. They replied me and asked me to send image of passport for verification. I actually do not like to do so.
Finally they agree to re-activate my reseller account again after received my email. So, they send me again the plan I bough before, including a separate email about Google Adwords Credit worth $200.

After trying some features in Super Reseller Plan and did small researches, I found I can’t compete with other 40000 same resellers. Luckily there was 30 day Money Back Guarantee. I canceled the reseller account I bought before. It was take some days to complete the cancellation until $219 come back to my saving account :).

Then, I realized that I have two letter about Google Adsense. Every Google Adwords credit required new signup of Google Adwords, so I signup for two account. Total I got $450. I used it for other affiliate promotion, but not much I can get :(.
