Hosting Reseller Explanation

There are a lot of ways of generating cash online and one of them is to resell the hosting services supplied by a given hosting distributor. This offers immeasurable options for everyone who wishes to generate extra revenue. There are different kinds of hosting reseller solutions, depending on the reseller's level of responsibility and, of course, on the hosting provider that provides the web hosting service. Prior to going into that, let's first examine

What is a hosting reseller service?

A hosting reseller solution is a type of hosting account, which permits the user to set up various subaccounts that can be offered to various customers. This is generally accomplished by bestowing the user with access to a main hosting reseller account, through which he can create various web hosting accounts using the web hosting server disk drive space offered by the hosting reseller plan, for which he pays a given fee. This is a lot like the shared hosting solution and exactly like it, with the majority of hosting reseller programs, many reseller web hosting accounts share the same server and do not have full server root access to the web server config files. Such reseller web hosting programs are generally not that high-priced. Still, they do restrain the hosting resellers from delivering other kinds of web hosting services except shared hosting plans.

Various types of hosting reseller solutions

Beside the aforementioned way of hosting reseller accounts, there are also several different ways that work just as fine. Yet, they differ with respect to the levels of commitment and the budget amount that each of them demands. As stated above, the most common mode of reselling hosting services offers you restricted opportunities and you risk losing your money if things go wrong. That is the reason why, bigger hosting companies like ResellersPanel.com provide different modes of reselling web hosting plans without having to buy anything in advance, or to even get involved in the provision of client and billing support. With their reseller hosting program, the reseller registers free of cost and specifies his own personal retail prices for the web hosting solutions, which are being offered straight from his web store. Since invoicing transactions are taken care of by ResellersPanel.com's staff, the client does not need to purchase the service in advance. He's only going to receive the difference between the retail and the wholesale price in the form of a commission. The web hosting reseller also has the possibility to supply web hosting services such as VPS services, semi-dedicated services and dedicated server. More or less, his role entails advertising the web hosting service and offering support to the end clients and with providers that do not request upfront payments and tackle the billing and customer support provision, the only responsibility left for the hosting reseller will be to promote his private brand's online storefront. Another possibility will be to create different accounts on a virtual hosting server, or on a dedicated hosting server. With most hosting corporations, you may get those two hosting solutions with a cPanel, DirectAdmin, or some other web hosting Control Panel, already installed on them. That will enable you to create various shared web hosting accounts and exert total authority over both the customers and the web server itself. Additionally, on a dedicated web hosting server, you may set up different private virtual web server hosting accounts and offer them to your clients. One dedicated hosting server may hold 1000's of private virtual hosting server accounts, depending on the web server's capacity. This will enable you to offer a wider assortment of web hosting services to your clients, which will give you more opportunities when advertising your online store. By all means, using a VPS hosting server or a dedicated server for hosting reseller aims is much more costly than using an ordinary hosting reseller user account. Because of this, this possibility should be examined only in case the reseller has sufficient ability and training required to administer a server, otherwise it's recommendable to either sign up for a standard hosting reseller program, or for the aforementioned Free Reseller Program courtesy of ResellersPanel.com, which requests less dedication from the web hosting reseller.
