Pros and Cons of Reseller Web Hosting

Friday, August 22nd, 2008

Now it’s time to heat up the things little bit, Reseller Web Hosting is a profitable business but on the other hand, it has it’s own share of downfalls too. You must understand that pros and cons both exists at the same time.

With that in mind, I have provided some advantages and disadvantages of reseller web hosting:

Advantages

  • More flexibility and freedom rather than just having a single account. Reseller hosting account will give you a lot more than of shared hosting.
  • Forget to pay high prices, you are going to save a lot of money when you will purchase reseller hosting from any highly recommended website.
  • You will earn more revenue and you will have to spend just a little amount of money from your revenue towards your hosting.
  • Your main target would be to give customer support to your audience and let your web host do the technical job for you without any hidden or extra charges.
  • You are not going to pay for server maintenance cost incase of any accident, your web host will cover the cost and damages.
  • You will be able to change themes and user-interface of control panel which your clients and audience will use.
  • You can even set your own logo or brand name if you have a reseller web hosting account.

Disadvantages

  • Your services are limited, if anything goes wrong from the upstream provider then you will have to suffer the same thing which may lead in loss of your precious clients.
  • If you are planning to change your web host, then it would be a pain in your a** to shift the whole data, clients don’t like such kind of things usually.

 

Keeping the disadvantages in mind, the advantages wins and it’s not a bad option to pick up a reseller web hosting package, it would be a fun to use it if you have a very low budget but your desires are to have custom nameservers, private logo or company name, administration area then reseller web hosting is the right choice for you.

No matter if you are a webmaster with multiple websites or you design websites for your clients or if your business needs more than just a single site, would reseller hosting be the right choice for you?

Basically, a Reseller Web Hosting account would allow you to host multiple websites and several kinds of packages which you can offer to your clients. You can host several websites of your own also, just look after the disk space which you’ve been allocated.

The most marked-up points of reseller hosting are:

  • You have the power and ability to perform various tasks. You can allocate disk space, bandwidth, subdomains and other specifications according to your mind.
  • While most reseller accounts also comes with custom or private nameservers which means that you can even label your own brand name inside your nameservers. Let’s say if you are the owner of domain.com and you have the access of creating private nameservers, then you can create nameservers of your own choice like ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com which is really beneficial.
  • With a reseller hosting account, you have the power to control your own account, you can even maintain billing and support desk for your clients. Don’t worry if you don’t know anything, your web host will provide you with some documentations and online support which will answer to your queries and questions.
  • If you think that you just need to push your business a little bit, then you may try purchasing small reseller accounts which comes with around 500MB-2GB space and around 10GB bandwidth which is suitable for very small sites. There are range of packages available and if you have a list of clients with heavy sites then there are packages for you which comes with a giant disk-space of 10GB-40GB space with 100GB-500GB bandwidth.

Don’t ever think that you are very new to reseller web hosting and you won’t be able to use your web hosting reseller account easily, it’s a piece of cake believe me as my younger brother of 14 years of age was able to understand how to use reseller web hosting account by just going through FAQ’s and manuals.
Always research for the top reseller hosting companies. Do your homework and start searching on search engines about reseller web hosting, read reviews on web hosting reviews websites and join webmaster forums and look what they are saying about reseller web hosting companies and which companies do they recommend for quality, support, uptime, space and peace of mind.
