What Does Reseller Web Hosting Represent?

There are a lot of means of earning revenue on the Internet and one of them is to sell the shared hosting services furnished by a particular web host. This provides endless opportunities for everyone who wants to generate more revenue. There are various sorts of reseller web hosting services, depending on the reseller's level of participation and, of course, on the service provider that provides the web hosting service. Before looking into that, let's first check out

What is a reseller web hosting service?

A reseller web hosting solution is a type of hosting user account, which enables the user to create separate sub-accounts that can be resold to different customers. This is mostly accomplished by providing the reseller with access to a main reseller web hosting account, via which he can create different web hosting accounts availing of the web server space offered by the reseller web hosting package, for which he pays a given tax. This is a lot similar to the shared hosting solution and exactly like it, with the majority of reseller web hosting programs, multiple web hosting reseller accounts share one and the same server and are not supplied with full root-level access to the server config files. Such web hosting reseller programs are generally not that high-priced. Yet, they do deter the web hosting resellers from providing other kinds of web hosting services apart from shared web hosting packages.

Different types of reseller web hosting services

Aside from the aforementioned way of reseller web hosting packages, there are also a few other ways that work just as good. Still, they differ in terms of the levels of participation and the amount of resources that each one of them demands. As already mentioned, the most popular way of reselling web hosting solutions offers you limited opportunities and you risk losing your cash if things don't work out. That's why, larger web hosting firms such as ResellersPanel.com offer alternative modes of reselling hosting accounts without the need to buy anything upfront, or to even be responsible for the provision of client and billing support. With their web hosting reseller program, the reseller subscribes free of cost and determines his very own personal retail prices for the hosting plans, which are being sold directly from his web storefront. As billing transactions are tackled by ResellersPanel.com's personnel, the customer does not have to pay for the web hosting service upfront. He's merely going to receive the difference between the retail and the wholesale price in the form of a commission. The hosting reseller also has the possibility to provide web hosting solutions like VPS hosting, semi-dedicated hosting and dedicated hosting. More or less, his job entails promoting the service and offering support to the end users and with providers that do not request upfront deposits and tackle the invoicing and technical support provision, the sole task left for the hosting reseller will be to advertise his private brand's web storefront. Another possibility will be to set up different accounts on a VPS web hosting server, or on a dedicated web server. With most hosting providers, you may receive those two hosting services with a cPanel, DirectAdmin, or some other hosting CP, already installed on them. That will allow you to set up different shared web hosting plans and exercise complete authority over both the clients and the server itself. In addition, on a dedicated web server, you may set up different VPS server web hosting accounts and offer them to your clients. A single dedicated hosting web server may shelter thousands of private virtual server hosting accounts, based on the web server's specs. This will permit you to provide a greater array of web hosting services to your customers, which will furnish you with more alternatives when popularizing your web store. Of course, utilizing a VPS or a dedicated hosting web server for reseller web hosting objectives is much more costly than having a normal reseller web hosting account. For this reason, this option should be examined only if the hosting reseller has enough ability and training necessary to administer a web hosting server, otherwise it's recommended to either sign up for a normal reseller web hosting program, or for the already mentioned Free Reseller Program courtesy of ResellersPanel.com, which requires less dedication from the reseller.
