Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a DirectAdmin Reseller Linux VPS?
A DirectAdmin Reseller Linux VPS is a virtual private server configured with the DirectAdmin host control panel, specifically optimized for resellers who want to manage multiple hosting clients. It provides complete administrative control, resource isolation, and scalability — without the cost or complexity of running a dedicated server.
At CyberDummies, we specialize in setting up and managing these environments, ensuring your VPS runs securely, efficiently, and in full compliance with best practices.
2. Do I need to move my hosting to use your DirectAdmin management services?
No, you don’t need to migrate your hosting. One of the key advantages of working with CyberDummies is that we operate independently of hosting providers. We manage your DirectAdmin Linux VPS on your existing hosting infrastructure — meaning no downtime, no data loss, and no hosting lock-in. You retain full ownership and control at all times.
3. How does CyberDummies help hosting resellers with setup and licensing?
We handle every step of the process — from VPS assessment and DirectAdmin compatibility checks to license procurement, installation, and configuration. Our directadmin management services include secure server setup, email and DNS configuration, SSL implementation, and performance optimization. You’ll also receive detailed handover documentation so you can confidently manage your reseller environment, should you wish to do so and let us only maintain the VPS.
4. Can you provide ongoing support after the setup is complete?
Yes. In addition to initial setup, CyberDummies offers optional ongoing DirectAdmin management and monitoring services. These include regular updates, performance tuning, security audits, and priority troubleshooting. This ensures your reseller VPS continues to operate smoothly as your business grows and your client base expands.
5. What makes CyberDummies different from traditional hosting providers?
CyberDummies is not a hosting company — and that’s our strength. We focus purely on managed web services and DirectAdmin management, working seamlessly with your chosen hosting provider. This independence allows us to prioritize stability, optimization, and transparent service — without up-selling hosting plans or add-ons.
6. Is DirectAdmin suitable for beginners or non-technical users?
