Hello awesome people of BHW,

While reading this, it would mean a lot to me if you could give some good constructive criticism for what to do/not do. Here is my thoughts.

I want to create a reseller website which sells services such as followers/likes for instagram and tiktok. End user such as private instagram profiles and influencers will be my customers.
For example, someone order instagram followers service of 5K on my site for 10 dollars, then I go and insert the specifics of that order in a SMM Panel for the fraction of that price. This would be done manually and maybe in the future(if it goes well) I can scale up and intergrate API from SMM Panels. I have found a few popular SMM Panels, but this is not important right now.

First step of this journey will be finding a good website platform that has easy-to-use drag and drop functions (I can't code...for now) and payment methods that are safe.

Choosing a website platform:
After conducting some research it seems like Wordpress and WooCommerce may be good options. Weebly too. It will take some time to learn these platforms, but I am in it for the long run. What I am unsure about is if these platforms doesn't allow this kind of business, some places they say that they do, some says that you may get flagged and eventually banned. This outcome will suck after spending hours to build it.
My question is this; are these good options? Am I on the right path here? If not, what other good options are there? Some advice will be very much appreciated.

Choosing a payment method:
I have found some payment providers such as Reepay (Billwerk+) and Payeer. It seems like these two has plugins with Wordpress and WooCommerce, which will be beneficial since I don't know any coding.
My questions is the same as above; am I on the right track here?

Hope you read this far and could give me some advice. I will forever be thankful.

Cheers and hope you all are having a good and profitable weekend!

Please be aware that nothing else attracts more hackers than Wordpress.

So I don't recommend to use it, since not every bug/security hole will be patched immediately by Wordpress. Even if you check it daily.
 
I tried doing it not like an smm but as sort of a shopping experience to lure in those without information about smm's... Wasn't a successful venture tbh... I did get some orders like arounud 5-10 but that too after a lot of hard work, and you cannot run ads, you cannot market them except through seo, where the existing competition is way too high
 
Honestly reselling is a tough, competitive market but worst case scenario you will learn a lot

website --> design in figma, host in framer, check yt vids in how they work together

from a marketing perspective, you want to be on every forum marketing with great branding, you want to be mass dming people on twitter / ig/ tiktok. Make sure the sales pitch in the dms feels organic, you will have much higher conversion rates.
 
@ssociety Seems like nowadays every market is competitive and overcrowded. I guess in the end it depends on your marketing strategy. And yes, successful or not, I will at least learn a lot. Thank you for your advice, i'll check out figma and framer.

@twoassassins Actually if you search on google "buy instagram followers" there are ads, so somehow it works.
 
Such venue was my first choice for 2024. It failed miserably.

Unfortunately things such as market saturation and restrictions (payments, ads) drove mad enough to give up on it.

Now I'm considering getting back at it again.

After building a barely successful SMM agency (again) I believe I have enough xp to share with you.

For now, I only have two tips:

1. Invest heavily on branding. Take your time building a truly unique, targeted approach and stick to it. Selling everything to anyone might feel like the obvious choice, and that's how the market became saturated. Pick a niche and write kick-ass copy for DMs and comments. Fro example: "1000 Followers in 10 Minutes. For $5. Here's How". Etc etc etc.

2. Choose THE right panel (or make one). Yeah, you can spend hundreds of hours trying to build one by yourself or... just use a landing page template. Hell, even the likes of Perfect Panel would suffice it for now. Worpdress + Elementor isn't as easy as people make it out to be - not at all!


Here's the TL;DR: Just hire someone to build a single page for you. Write the copy. Take SSs of the service providers you're reselling from. Then pick a PPS that works the best for you. Profit?
Maybe.



That's it.

Everything else is a bunch of boring technicalities. And where the money is made.

Hope I've helped you.
