Web Hosting Reseller Program

Reseller web hosting accounts are often used by webmasters to resell hosting space to their clients. Resellers can create their own hosting packages and decide on their own prices. Oftentimes, resellers act as an independent hosting company (their clients do not know that they don't have their own servers and are reselling). This works out very well for webmasters who maintain client sites.

Reseller web hosting is also used by online publishing companies who have many sites. We use several reseller accounts to maintain our sites around the web. With a reseller account, you can host unlimited sites and create your own package sizes. This means you can host 1 large site that takes up all your storage space and bandwidth or break it up into 20 or more different plans. You decide based on your needs (or the plans you want to sell if you are acting as a true reseller).

Reseller web hosting accounts come with a free billing manager of some sort so that you can bill your clients on autopilot (if you choose to do so). That way you can set up a complete hosting website that allows your clients to sign up, pay you and get their hosting account created in minutes.

Whether you are going to use the hosting for your own sites or resell it, you manage the accounts from within a Web Host Manager (WHM) control panel. The WHM panel will allow you to set up all the sites you plan to host with just a few clicks of your mouse. You can add and delete accounts/sites and edit packages (like how much storage space and bandwidth you plan to provide per account) all from within the WHM. Once each site has been set up in the WHM, it will have its own cPanel.

If you are selling hosting, each client will get access to their own cPanel account where they can manage their website without needing help from you. If you are using the hosting for your own sites, you will need to manage each site from within its own cPanel account.

Reseller web hosting plans usually run about $20 a month and up with a wide range of storage space and bandwidth. Check out our reseller web hosting chart to review our top reseller hosting picks and read customer reviews.
