reseller hosting

Reseller hosting is where a Web host buys a bulk plan from the reseller hosting company, and then subdivides that plan into smaller pieces to on-sell or “resell” to individual users.The reseller host provides large scale hosting packages where, for a fixed cost, substantial packages of space and bandwidth are made available, together with the ability to host bulk domain names. The individual Web host can then concentrate on providing packages and plans to attract customers, without having to own, manage and maintain their own server. The sever is run by the reselling company, and all server issues are taken care of on behalf of the reseller’s customer: the Web host. The Web host is generally free to claim the server as “theirs”, although they rarely have full access to it. However, this doesn’t mean they can’t ask for things to be done to the server. For example, if a particular host needs a module installed to help run a script they have, they can request that it be installed — most reseller hosts are more than happy to install these items for their clients.
