Hosting Reseller: What Is This?

By Angus Green

What is a hosting reseller? This is an important question, because there are a great number of hosting companies, but a large proportion of these companies are, in fact, hosting resellers. A hosting reseller is someone who buys hosting packages from a supplier and resells them under their own brand name. This system is an excellent business opportunity, with many advantages.

Hosting reseller needs in the online world are constantly growing, because more businesses and people are hooking up. They require value in inexpensive services for good quality. The market is still at the bottom of the growth curve and this means that you can get involved and earn great money.

One of the keys to this is that as a small, private hosting reseller you can offer clients what large companies cannot. You can offer a level of customer service and attention to detail that many people crave but cannot find elsewhere. In this way you'll help yourself stand out from the crowd, and you'll be able draw in new clientele.

In addition, acting as a hosting reseller you can also take on many additional services. For example, you can help design websites for people and you can help them market their services online. This is another way that you'll stand out from the large businesses that exist, and another way in which you can really create for yourself an independent, thriving business.

The best thing about being a hosting reseller is that no-one will know that you are the middleman. You can redesign your brand, logo and trading name to create your own image. This means that you can create your own business and your clients deal with you, not your supplier.

The good news is that it is inexpensive to get started as a hosting reseller. The outlays are relatively small and there are no large, monthly overheads. Rather, you can rent out large chunks of server space and make a tidy profit reselling it to clients.

You may also be surprised at how easy it will be to manage your new clients. Using a content management system, you will be able to deal with all of your clients and their websites separately. You can manage them all, make changes, bill them and so forth without much work or hassle.

It is clear that being a hosting reseller has a wide range of pluses. With a relatively small startup investment and almost no risk, you can create your own business. If you are ready to put in some work to create an outstanding and high return business, you should become a hosting reseller.
