When do I need a reseller hosting plan?

Mujkanovic · Oct 1, 2020

I check and see that reseller hosting plans have more advantages over shared hosting, even VPS hosting because it has good features like a VPS while still using hosting control panels like a VPS without buying licenses for my hosting. My question is just, when do I need a reseller hosting plan?

I believe that this is ultimately a question that the answer is always a personal answer.

Shared hosting is where you have an account on a server that is shared across all of the resources on that server.
Reseller hosting offers you all the same things a Shared hosting package does, but offers you the ability to re-sell shared hosting to clients of your own.
A VPS offers you the ability to have semi-dedicated resources and much finer control over how the server operates. However, a VPS, just like a dedicated server, takes significantly more technical know-how and effort to secure, configure, and keep updated.

Some things you may want to think about for this:
- Do you need dedicated resources for your website? (Most reseller hosts offer dedicated resources)
- Are you looking to start offering shared hosting to clients of your own? Reseller hosting would be for you.
- Are you looking to segregate your websites into their own accounts rather than having them all on one shared account? Reseller hosting or a VPS might be for you.
- Are you confident in your Linux/Windows technical skills and ability to secure and configure a server? If not, a VPS may NOT be for you. However, this could be a challenge that you are interested in taking on.

These are just some of the thoughts I have about this. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any other questions or want to talk further on this.

Hey,
I think it depends on the volume. If you are selling hosting then you definitely need a reseller. You cannot add addon domains to sell hosting unless you are managing all your customers and hosting is included in your services like designing or development. But if you are selling hosting accounts, then you definitely need a reseller. Going for VPS will only be a good choice when you have a good volume of customers because you don't just have to buy a cPanel license there are other things too, like Softacolous, Imunify360 (ImunifyAV is free though but with fewer features) But Management itself cost you a lot even if you are doing it yourself. A lot of time. That is why people pay hundreds to server administrators just to manage and maintain their servers.

If you are looking for any of those services I discussed above, feel free to reach me out and we'll talk.

Good luck

Reseller web hosting refers to a kind of web hosting stage in which any validate operator can host websites, of external parties, with the aid of individual drive capacity and the net bandwidth.

There are two types of reseller out there. The first one is traditional reseller and another one is the private reseller hosting. The traditional reseller hosting is like a bulk reseller. This fundamentally means that the complete web server is sold and then divided into smaller portions. These smaller portions are then purchased by smaller reseller web host. This means that the bulk reseller only have to deal with one client. The smaller reseller business will deal with theirs. There are advantage for both parties of reseller because the smaller reseller will not have to manage the technical requirements of the website while the bulk reseller do not have to manage many but only one web server.

There are a number of benefits of reseller web services. The price intricate in this host set up is minor than other shared hosting services. The greatest part is the high rate of record that a reseller web host develops. The reseller web service creates it more flexible than supplementary shared hosting forums. There is plenty time to focus on other work, rather than continuing glued to the same host service. This flexibility spontaneously leads to better management of more websites and in turn, leads to a solid client base.

Consequently, before deciding on selecting the cheap reseller hosting service as a business choice, it is suggested that one weighs all pros and cons. There is no set strategy to help one choose the impeccable . Though, reputation on the web and the history of a certain company are the best ways to judge what is best. Proper research takes one a long way before setting up a serious enterprise with the cheap reseller hosting in USA.

I think it depends on your requirement, how many websites are you going to host in VPS / Reseller account?

There is no such thing called dedicated resource in SHARED HOSTING, even if is, you will pay more than a server itself, maybe you think it's dedicated but it's not. Your best bet is, get a great vps and or dedicated server install any panel and host websites as much as you have resource in your server.

It also depends on your budget. How much are you willing to spend monthly on your hosting plan.

Hello,
Reseller hosting is an ideal solution for those, who want to start their own web hosting business at an affordable price point. In that, you can create multiple cPanel control panels for each user.
So, this service is the best web developer and designer. They can host their websites under their reseller hosting plan.

It completely depends on what is the purpose of your site

I think you need it when you want to sell hosting accounts to your customers!

Reseller hosting can be distinct as that kind of website hosting in which a web host purchase bulk plan from a hosting firm. The web host then shares the bulk plan into smaller plans and then resells the smaller plans to individual operators. This type of hosting is the cheapest technique by which websites can be hosted on the internet.

Reseller hosting packages can be actually supportive for any professional person, particularly when they are getting it from trustworthy and reliable web hosting firms. Study all your options before selecting a provider and a package that will suit all your requirements.

The basic services in reseller hosting are delivered by the actual website hosting firm. It is the business that achieves the network infrastructure and all hardware. The hosting business maintains the servers and updates them whenever needed.

The reseller in case of reseller hosting does not require extensive knowledge about the technical aspects of providing website hosting services to the clients. The simple purpose of the reseller is to interact with the clients using a web interface. The reseller can set up and manage the different clients but cannot do anything beyond that.

I think I would echo with most people here. With Reseller hosting, one can host several different third party sites.

Many make an earning and also a business out of it, especially web devs and designers when they get a requirement to make a website.

Resellers essentially act as a face for brands who provide hosting and have their own infrastructure, including data centers, security, servers, etc. Hence, they can sell the hosting of a particular brand with some markup.

In my early years as a web dev, I chose ResellerClub as a brand and resold their web hosting like cloud, VPS, and dedicated servers because they were economical, had good support, and were sound technically. Their infra was top notch and uptime was just great, so there was a fantastic performance. I have had a better experience with them than any other provider.

So, all in all, yeah, if you are looking at reseller hosting as a service, it is a totally different ball game.
