Boise Hosting

By Ronnie Morales

Reseller hosting offers small businesses and personal website owners the ability to give their clients web hosting at a reasonable price. In essence, hosting account owners sell a portion of their allotted storage and bandwidth to clients who just want a basic Web hosting package.

Hosting resellers usually partner with a larger, more established service provider that already has the infrastructure and support systems in place. Resellers have to handle the customer service and billing aspects for their customers, and the hosting service takes care of all other aspects. The details will differ slightly based upon the reseller agreement, but many account owners will have the choice to offer the hosting packages with their own brand name and establish whatever pricing model they choose.

Individuals or small businesses who maintain websites typically don't need large amounts of space and bandwidth. They are able to have the hosting services which they do require, without having to pay for the expense of keeping a full service account for hosting; such programs allow them to resell their extra space.

These programs are also a way for developers, Web designers and other Internet professionals to provide a value-added service to their clients. Most people in the business world prefer to continue to do business with a small number of suppliers that they know well and trust. Web developers can add this kind of hosting onto the services that they provide, which saves their clients time and eschews the need to find a reliable host elsewhere. It's also possible for small IT support companies to use reseller programs and provide them to their clients for an added value for their services.

A majority of hosting providers allow for options which permit their account owners to manage hosting reseller packages by customizing their server platform, bandwidth and storage space. You should look into any company you're interested in hosting your website before you sign any contracts. A little bit of research into your webhost can save you time and money in the long run.
