What is reseller hosting?

Reseller hosting is a special form of hosting, where you buy hosting space to be sold to others. Usually, you get a certain amount of storage space and bandwidth, and you can resell (hence the name) it to your customers. Often your space is divided into fixed portions and you can sell only these portions (for example, 10 portions of 25MB hosting space), but sometimes you can divide it flexibly as per your customers' needs.

When you sign up for reseller hosting, you can offer your users much more options that if you sold space from your normal hosting account. Several benefits include:

1. Your customers will get access to a control panel to easily manage their hosting space. This is not possible when you sell space from normal hosting account, since the only admin panel you get is the one for yourself.
2. Your customers will get technical support from your hosting company. You will not have to provide technical support to your users.

If you plan to start your web hosting business, reseller hosting is a good choice for you.
