Reseller hosting allows you to host domains and "resell" hosting on. Many small web hosts resell hosting.
It is useful as it, like shared hosting, can be purchased cheaply and software and hardware are managed by the parent hosting company. If someone owns a few web sites but does not require a VPS or dedicated server, this is what they will use. The downsides are similar to shared hosting, you don’t have as much control as you do with a dedicated server. On the other hand, with reseller hosting, you can host more than one web site which saves money. Reseller hosting also gives you a lot more web space and bandwidth.
Recommended for: Company with multiple low traffic website, intermediate users.
We do not recommend using a company that resells hosting. Find a host that actually owns the equipment.
