Reseller Hosting vs. Shared Hosting
There are quite a few differences between reseller hosting and shared hosting. Which one you should choose is dependent directly on what you want to use it for. Shared hosting accommodates many different websites in one server. The cost is divided between all of the website owners, and therefore it can be a very practical option. Shared hosting can prove to be disadvantageous to people who need massive software development that might not be provided or supported by a web hosting service provider.
Reseller hosting, on the other hand, involves third parties. You can utilize the hard drive and bandwidth space you are already paying for to sell to other people. Resellers come in many forms. These include agents who advertise directly from the company, marketers where customers buy directly from the reseller with the originating hosting company for maintenance, full resellers who provide all services and literal resellers who purchase a large chunk of web space and bandwidth for the expressed purpose of dividing it into smaller pieces for resale.
