Every day, lots of whole new websites appear on the Internet and obviously, web hosting is necessary for all types of websites which want to make a presence online. Hosting of websites is offered by many companies at competent prices. One can opt for any web hosting company or provider to ask for web hosting service directly; Of course, they can also choose web hosting resellers to host their websites by purchasing reseller host service.

Usually, website hosting can broadly be classified into shared website hosting, reseller hosting and dedicated hosting. All three vary in terms of the services and the price at which web hosting is offered. But what is a web hosting reseller?

Reseller hosting can be defined as that type of website hosting in which a web host buys bulk plan from a hosting company. The resell host then sub divides the bulk plan into smaller plans and then resells the smaller plans to individual users. The webhosting reseller can sell space and bandwidth from a rented dedicated server. Of course, compared with dedicated hosting and other expensive hosting plans, this type of hosting is the most inexpensive method by which websites can be hosted on the Internet.

A web hosting reseller can act as a marketer for the web hosting company. He advertises the hosting plans which people purchase from him. However, once the hosting plan has been sold, the customers have contact with the web hosting company and not the reseller. That is to say, the basic services in reseller hosting are provided by the actual website hosting company. It is the company that manages the network infrastructure and maintains the servers whenever necessary.
