Posted by serversanddomains on July 22nd, 2014

The world has become an oyster for all of those who would like to become an entrepreneur overnight. With so many options, one more additional one has been generated- the reseller web hosting business. So, it is natural to have questions like:

What is reseller web hosting? How can one start this business? And, is it an online one?

A reseller web hosting is one by which you purchase a web hosting package from a hosting provider. Let us say, for instance, you purchase 90GB web space, with all the paraphernalia’s.  Now, after this, you catch hold of some customers for yourself and distribute (or divide) this space and bandwidth, etc. among these customers. And, in return, you get paid for the effort from them.  You can work all this out, completely online.

Though this defines it in a gist as to what you can do by starting up an online reseller web hosting business, there are a few advantages and disadvantages associated with it.

Advantages:

1. You can start it up anywhere and do it from your own computer at home. By getting a good web hosting package, you can earn a good income out of it.
2. Since the web hosting company would deal with any customer issues or server related problems, you will have a good support system in hand, at all the time. One thing you need to take care of is to select a web hosting service provider, which offers you the best customer service option.
3. Expansion of business, when it comes to reseller one, is extremely easy.  If your customer needs extra web space or you have acquired some more customers who would like to have an account with you, the web hosting service provider can give you a better and bigger web hosting package to help you expand your business.
4. The reseller business is comparatively simpler, than any other online businesses.

Disadvantages:

1. As in any business, the web seller business also needs your constant attention. Though there will be people behind you to help out, you need to deal with your customers for the delays, if any, in restoring the problem with the server.
2. Finding a customer is your responsibility, which again depends upon your marketing techniques and availability of other resellers in your area.

Reseller web hosting is an excellent way to realize your dreams of becoming the master of your own business. Contact a web hosting provider to know about the special packages on offer for you.
