What is Reseller Web Hosting?
Usually when I define reseller Web hosting to folks outside of the industry I tell them that it is like having your own little Web hosting company. A reseller Web hosting account is useful when you want to be able to create smaller hosting accounts and sell or give them out to friends.
You can also use this account type to have a better control over your own little empire of Web sites. Instead of having to go here and there to manage everything – you can do it in one spot.

Re: What is Reseller Web Hosting?
A reseller is a middle-man who sells web space on somebody else's server. Reselling schemes vary widely. They fall into the following categories:
(a) The reseller acts as an agent for the web hosting company. The service is advertised by the reseller as being with the actual web hosting company. People buy direct from the web hosting company but the reseller gets a cut if customers mention the reseller's name.
(b) The reseller acts as a marketer for the web hosting company. The service is advertised by the reseller as being with the actual web hosting company. People buy the service from the reseller but all further contact they have is direct with the web hosting company.

Re: What is Reseller Web Hosting?
Hi
Reseller web hosting is when you buy server space, market it yourself, and sell it on to your own customers. Since you're selling a service provided by someone else, it's extremely important that you can trust your provider. Below, you will find a list of companies that we've found to be the most reliable, and that offer really good, profitable reseller deals.
Thanks

Re: What is Reseller Web Hosting?
Hi
Reseller hosting is a form of web hosting wherein the account owner has the ability to use his/her allotted hard drive space and bandwidth to host websites on behalf of third parties. The reseller purchases the host's services wholesale and then sells them to customers for a profit. A certain portion of hard drive and bandwidth is allocated to the reseller account. The reseller may rent a dedicated server from a hosting company, or resell shared hosting services. In the latter case, the reseller is simply given the permission to sell a certain amount of disk space and bandwidth to his own customers without renting a server from a web hosting company he signed for a reseller account with.
Thanks

Re: What is Reseller Web Hosting?
Hi
Reseller hosting is one type of web hosting. Here the account owner may divide up their selected hard drive space and bandwidth and resell web hosting. Usually, resellers are web consultants who are also web developers and designers and a web or a system-integration company. Web hosting for them is an extra service along with other host of services. Web hosting provider often gives a discount of 50 percent or more to the resellers on the price of a reseller hosting account. Web hosting resellers are normally not in charge of maintaining web server services or other maintenance related responsibilities but just a "web hosting provider." In cases of any technical problems, such as server down and access problem, the responsibility falls on the owner of the dedicated server in which the reseller host is hosted. Generally, a web hosting reseller can set up its web hosting company on the Internet and start selling web hosting plans under its own brand name.
Thanks

Re: What is Reseller Web Hosting?
Hi
The reseller acts as a marketer for the web hosting company. The service is advertised by the reseller as being with the actual web hosting company. People buy the service from the reseller but all further contact they have is direct wih the web hosting company.
The reseller appears to be a web hosting company in his own right, handling sales and support but 'rebadges' somebody else's service. A customer buys web space from the reseller who buys web space (at a lower price) from the actual web hosting company. Customers contact the reseller for support.
A variant on this scheme is that customers are invoiced by the web hosting company in the reseller's name and the reseller gets a cut. Support will usually be via the reseller in order to keep up the pretence that the reseller is a web hosting company in his own right.
The reseller purchases a large chunk of web space and bandwidth from the web hosting company and can then carve that into individual chunks of space/bandwidth for sale to customers. Customers contact the reseller for support.
Thanks
