Is Reseller Hosting Really Worth It?
by adminIf you’re looking into web hosting and possibly thinking about Reseller Hosting accounts as an option then you may want to consider your options. Reseller hosting has some disadvantages than the standard plans offered by popular hosting companies. For one, reseller hosting packages generally come with a lot less space and bandwidth than standard packages and are almost always more expensive. Reseller accounts are more limited than the standard accounts because they are based on a commercial use structure so the hosting companies basically give you a lot less for more money.
Another problem with Reseller hosting is getting enough accounts to cover your expenses and time, and sealing with frustrated or irate customers. Some hosting companies offer “live help” for additional money per month, which can offer you a solution for your time, however realize that this will make your monthly payments bigger than what you may be able to tolerate. Make sure you get with a good Reseller hosting company that will help you in setting up accounts and assist you if your customers have problems. Also, make sure the hosting company you choose offers you 24/7 support and can provide an uptime guarantee to keep you and your customer’s accounts active.
