Web hosting is a service which allows you to have your own online web space for you to start your own website. Web hosts provide you with online space on a server where many people like you share the web space.

The different types of web hosting services provided are shared web hosting, dedicated web hosting, managed web hosting, reseller web hosting, and more.

Let us discuss what is reseller web hosting and how it can help you with some side income.

Reseller Web Hosting: An online space is bought from a web host organisation. The space bought is then sold to some one else – hence, resold. Such a transaction of buying, selling and reselling is referred to as Reseller Web Hosting.

Reseller Web Hosting can be performed in two ways:

• You buy online space and sell it to some one. Here, you are the acting web host. In such a case you have to handle the marketing area, too, to market your space. In case of any technical issues, the customer calls you and not the web host organisation.
• You buy huge amount of web space and bandwidth it. You make your reselling packages which may include details like the name of the package, space allotted, number of email accounts, mailing lists and bandwidth limits.
• The customer calls the web host organisation and not you in case of any technical issues. You need not necessarily be acquainted with the technical aspect of website building. In such a case you are only responsible for interfacing with the customer base. One should, however, make sure that the web host company offers technical support 24/7.
