Just in case people don't already know:

Wild West is a "sister company" of godaddy. The same products are
offered through resellers through Wild West.

If you are going to use this product, you might as well get a pro
reseller account for $179/year. That way you get the $89/month dedicated
server for  $74.82/month. A few domains registrations/renewals on top of
that and your savings have covered the annual fee. Then get some of your
friends and customers to buy their domains through your storefront and
you make some profit.

In fact, I just got a fax through email number at the pro reseller cost
of $7.68/month instead of the retail $9.95/month. It's an arizona number
with no limit on incoming and 100 minutes outgoing per month included.
It replaced my local efax number. Efax raised the price to $16.95/month
and they now charge for more than 130 pages/month incoming. They don't
include any sending in the monthly price. Even at the $9.95 retail
price, this is a much better deal. It's no longer important for most
businesses to send to a local fax number so this definitely beats
efax/j2 for me.

The retail storefront: http://names.wwdepot.com/

There is a basic and a pro reseller plan offered. Most people will want
the pro plan since the product buy rates are so much lower.
