Reseller Hosting Definition

The World Wide Web has become an indispensable component of everyone's daily routine. Everybody wants to create their very own personal website, whether for fun, for socialization or commercial ends. The shared hosting business is flourishing. Why don't you take a piece of the pie yourself?

What can you offer?

Most firms deliver Linux-powered web hosting services. Linux is a multi-user Operating System, which is very suited for both dedicated web hosting and shared hosting servers. The usual reseller hosting platform that firms provide is the cPanel one, as the cPanel hosting CP interface includes 3 access levels - root (reserved for the web hosting vendor itself), reseller (that is where you enter) and user (for your clients). Although some do allow overselling, in the majority of the situations you are bound by the data storage space and monthly bandwidth restrictions of your reseller hosting package. It is like a sphere, which you stuff with smaller spheres - when you have stuffed it all up, you cannot add more.

Offer virtual private servers packages or dedicated accounts

Most of the hosting suppliers offering virtual private servers packages and dedicated server do not actually mind if you utilize the private virtual web hosting server or the dedicated server to resell website hosting accounts. If you opt to resell web hosting accounts availing of a dedicated server, you will have complete control over the whole physical server, the possibility to implement any configuration changes you see fit and the ability to keep an eye on all the account owners hosted on it. The private virtual servers offer comparable options, but in most instances you cannot perform any kernel adjustments or changes, which involve kernel module reconfiguration. The best web hosting Control Panel user interface that allows you to resell web hosting accounts availing of your dedicated web hosting server or private virtual server is, once again, cPanel, although you can also utilize DirectAdmin, depending on which hosting CP befits your anticipations better.

What do you need to be a hosting reseller?

In order to become a hosting reseller and kick off your web hosting business, you need a web site, an invoicing software system, a merchant account with a payment processor like PayPal, WorldPay, MoneyBookers, 2CheckOut, etc., and a Secure Sockets Layer certificate to make sure that your customers' information is secure when they pay via your web site when buying a web hosting product. Famous billing systems that you can use are WHMCS, AWBS and ClientExec. The guys at ResellersPanel, however, offer you a cost-free reseller hosting account with all that included in it - a ready-to-use web site, a billing system and even technical support for your clients.
