What Is Reseller Hosting?
Reseller hosting makes use of a middle man or reseller to sell web space on a provider’s server. In some reselling hosting scenarios, the middle man is an agent for the provider and gets a percentage when a customer buys directly from the provider but mentions the seller’s name. In other reseller hosting cases, the middle man is a marketer for the company or hosting provider. The reseller is the one who sells the service but all customer inquiries are directed to the provider. In some reseller hosting cases, resellers buy hosting services from a provider and increase the price for a profit before reselling it to someone else. Any service or support comes from the middleman, who acts as a provider. Many people are looking to reseller hosting as a way to make money on the Internet. Even web hosting providers are making money this way, selling reseller accounts to individuals. With a reseller account, anyone can create their own reseller hosting business. Basically, the account gives far more web space and bandwidth than any individual user can need. The reseller is given the ability to divide up the bandwidth and space as he or she sees fit and resell it. The reseller hosting account allows the reseller to pocket any profits made from this account. Reseller hosting accounts usually start at ten dollars per month and may cost as much as fifty dollars monthly. Some people also use reseller hosting accounts to manage many of their own websites, although most resellers use these accounts to make extra money. In most cases, the resellers portray themselves as direct representatives of the company they purchased the reseller hosting account from. If you are
