Lots of people are taking out reseller hosting packages these days, purely to host their own websites. The advantage of this is that you can get a lot more flexibility as far as control panel options go for operating your own personal website network. Lots of shared hosting accounts limit the amount of domains you’re able to host also, which can be a pain if you’re looking to operate a large amount of websites. Reseller hosting accounts for the most part, tend to be unlimited in this respect and allow you to host as many accounts as you like, without having to break the bank for a VPS or even a dedicated server.

Of course, it’s not just website network owners who like to take out reseller hosting packages. They’re extremely popular for people who want to resell hosting for profit. There are hundreds of thousands of small web hosting firms out there at the moment who are literally just reselling the service of another provider for a slightly higher fee. In the web hosting game, there is always someone cheaper than you for the same service, it’s all about finding your clients. If you find the clients, profiting from your reseller hosting is easy.
