There are a lot of benefits that you can get if you become a web hosting reseller. Here are some of those benefits.
Low capital, high returns – being a reseller means you are offering a product or a service provided by others. As a reseller for web hosts, you will be able to sell web hosting services under your own name. Your customers will not be able to differentiate your services to that of an actual direct provider of web hosting services. This means you can have an profitable business that provides web hosting services under your own name without having to incur the costs required to actually set up an actual web hosting business. For a very low capital, you can get to enjoy high returns by selling other people’s web hosting services for a profit.
Low cost web hosting for your own web sites – as a reseller, you are provided a web hosting package at bulk price. It is up to you to divide this package and sell them for a profit for your customers. The bulk price can enable you to generate a good profit if you sell web hosting at individual prices. The cheap bulk price also means that should you have a need to host any of your own websites, you no longer have to spend a lot of money by using your own web hosting that you are reselling. Many people who have a lot of web hosting needs become resellers in order to take advantage of the attractive pricing scheme that they can get. In fact some of them do not even resell the web hosting services as they already use it all up for their own web hosting needs.
Low overhead costs – if you are a reseller, you no longer have to worry about spending money to create your own web hosting network. Setting up an actual web hosting business yourself can be very expensive as you have to buy new hardware, set it up in a good location and pay personnel to oversee it. This can run up to millions of dollars in capital just to offer web hosting services directly. However, if you are only a reseller, your only responsibility is to sell a portion of the web hosting network. This means low overhead for you as you only need to spend for your own reseller website.
Good source of recurring income – being a web hosting reseller means you only work when you actually make a sale. Once the sale is done, all you have to do is to wait for the monthly subscription payments to come in. Any technical issues can be handled by the technical support staff of the direct seller.
