Reseller HostingTypes of Domain HostingReseller hosting can sometimes be a poor name for this moderately priced, flexible type of hosting. The name comes from the idea that a user can resell, to other users, hosting accounts. This is, in fact, a great feature of these hosting plans, and is in fact their primary use, but there are others as well.Like a shared hosting plan, reseller hosting plans, unless otherwise specified, share server resources with other customers. The big difference is that with a typical shared hosting plan you can only host one domain name, for example, yourdomain.com. With a reseller plan, you can host yourdomain.com, and then also resell space to another user who would host theirdomain.com as a sub account of yours. You would each manage your own domain hosting and each domain would appear separate to the outside world. However, as the account owner, your relationship would be with the hosting company, and the owner of theirdomain.com's relationship would be with you. You are the reseller. Another great use of reseller accounts that doesn't involve any reselling at all, is for a web site owner to host multiple domain accounts for themselves. If shared hosting costs $5 each, then once you host 4 sites, a $20 reseller plan is the way to go. Many reseller account owners host large numbers of their own domains in one account, so the cost savings add up. Plus, setting up a new shared plan can take a hosting company anywhere from a few hours to a few days. With your own reseller plan you can get a new domain's hosting up and running immediately.
