What Does Reseller Web Hosting Represent?
There are lots of ways of earning cash online and one of them is to sell the hosting services provided by some hosting firm. This provides countless options for everyone who wants to gain supplementary money. There are various varieties of reseller web hosting services, depending on the reseller's degree of commitment and, of course, on the hosting service provider that provides the web hosting service. Prior to looking into that, let us first examine
What is a reseller web hosting service?
A reseller web hosting solution is a kind of hosting user account, which enables the user to create different subaccounts that can be sold to various customers. This is typically achieved by providing the reseller with access to a master reseller web hosting account, through which he can set up different web hosting accounts utilizing the server hard drive storage space included in the reseller web hosting plan, for which he pays a given tax. This is much similar to the shared hosting solution and exactly like it, with the majority of reseller web hosting programs, lots of reseller hosting accounts share a single web server and do not receive root-level access to the web server configuration files. Such reseller programs are usually not that costly. However, they do impede the resellers from providing other types of hosting services apart from shared web hosting plans.
Various types of reseller web hosting services
Apart from the already mentioned method of reseller web hosting packages, there are also several other setups that work just as good. Still, they differ in terms of the degrees of involvement and the amount of cash that each one of them requires. As already mentioned, the most popular method of reselling web hosting solutions offers you limited alternatives and you risk losing your funds if things don't work out. This is why, bigger hosting companies like ResellersPanel.com offer alternative ways of selling web hosting packages without having to pay for anything beforehand, or to even get involved in the provision of client and billing support. With their hosting reseller program, the hosting reseller registers free of cost and fixes his very own retail prices for the web hosting plans, which are being sold straight from his web store. As invoicing transactions are handled by ResellersPanel.com's team, the client does not have to buy the web hosting service in advance. He's simply going to receive the difference between the retail and the wholesale price in the form of a commission. The hosting reseller also has the option to distribute web hosting services such as VPS packages, semi-dedicated packages and dedicated package. More or less, his role entails advertising the service and offering support to the end customers and with providers that do not request preliminary fees and take care of the billing and customer support provision, the sole task left for the reseller will be to advertise his personal brand's online store. Another option will be to create separate user accounts on a virtual web hosting server, or on a dedicated web server. With most web hosting companies, you may obtain those 2 web hosting services with a cPanel, DirectAdmin, or some different Control Panel, already installed on them. That will permit you to set up various shared hosting accounts and have complete authority over both the customers and the server itself. Also, on a dedicated hosting server, you may set up various VPS web hosting accounts and resell them to your clients. One single dedicated web hosting server may host thousands of virtual server accounts, depending on the server's capacity. This will allow you to provide a wider array of services to your clients, which will provide you with more possibilities when popularizing your web storefront. Of course, using a VPS hosting server or a dedicated server for reseller web hosting objectives is much more costly than utilizing a normal reseller web hosting user account. Hence, this alternative should be examined only if the reseller has enough knowledge and experience required to manage a web hosting server, otherwise it's recommendable to either register for a conventional reseller web hosting program, or for the abovementioned Free Reseller Program offered by ResellersPanel.com, which demands less commitment from the hosting reseller.
