Question Shared to Reseller

I'm thinking about upgrading my account from shared hosting to a reseller account, because I now have multiple sites with multiple domains. The one thing I noticed when I went to fill out the upgrade from. Is that it says a fee is charged to move addon domains to their own cPanels.

My question is, can I have them move the shared to one account and then move the domains myself? Didn't really see anything like that in the demo, so wasn't sure. I have several addon and parked domains.

Are you asking if you can move the one account (with subdomains) you have now to your new reseller account, and then move all the subdomains to their own accounts under your reseller account?

I haven't made a move like this myself (always been on a reseller account) but I can't see why this would be an issue.

Be sure to come back here when you're done and give us feedback on how it went.

When you upgrade you will be given the option to either move the files yourself or have us perform the move for you. If you choose, we can move the current account as-is from the shared hosting server to the reseller server. At that time you would be able to separate the addon domains into their own account.

Ahh, Okay. Yes, I want to move it all at once and then seperate them on my own. One more question though. Can I change the Primary domain for the reseller account? Or is there one?

Actually, it was pretty easy. They ended up creating a new reseller account under one of my other domains and now I'm setting up all the others on my own. When I'm done with all of that, then I'll have the shared hosting turned off.
