On this episode of Technikari, I was joined by Privilege Nyauta, the founder and CEO of a local web hosting service called PnrHost which has a subsidiary called Resellme, a platform that allows anyone to sell domains and web hosting to businesses and individuals.
The latter is the more interesting product, in my opinion, because it fits with the digital migration we have seen over the last couple of pandemic hit years. Everyone wants to go online and set up a store, or a virtual presence for their business.
According to Privilege, Resellme already has over 1000 agents who are selling domains to their clients. So to find out more about it we went over the benefits and drawbacks of the platform, how someone can get onboard as well as what lies in the future.

Comrade Fatso talks about how the Private Voluntary Organisations (PVO) Bill is an existential threat for Non-Governmental Organisations in Zimbabwe. Seeing as Magamba is an NGO, it’s hard not to cast one’s mind back to the time when the City of Harare tried to demolish their HQ at Moto Republik. Now it looks like they are after the business model.

NetOne thought they could pull a fast one on Zimbos by setting their One-Fi bundles at a ridiculous price… Imagine having to pay US$800 for 80GB? That’s insane and Zimbabweans swiftly reminded them that they are at our service, not that other way around.
Zimbos put the fear of God into NetOne over the ridiculous data prices
ZOL Zimbabwe (now Liquid Home) announced that it was going to be charging 10% Excise Duty on Internet services and VOIP. Pushing things on to the consumer is a time-honoured tradition in business, however, ZOL isn’t to blame here. The fault lies with the government for making internet services more expensive by pushing a duty that is reserved for unsavoury things onto a utility like the internet.
