Hosting Reselling Can Be Difficult


Hosting Reselling Can Be Difficult

It’s important to remember that as a hosting reseller, you take on the responsibilities that any host would take on. Chances are, your customers will not be aware that you are leasing out a private server which you are renting, so when anything goes wrong, you will be the one they place the burden of responsibility on.

A private name server is one which displays your domain name after the sub-domain as opposed to the domain name of the web host you are renting the private server from. It is an involved process, but hosting reselling is certainly a viable business if you’re willing to put the work into it.
Some of that work will be in the form of maintaining the servers, which would include software and/or hardware updates depending upon the deal you have with the private server owner. There is also a large degree of customer service work, technical support, and other front-end tasks which you will be required to undertake on your own. When the host you are renting the private server from has a problem, you will take all of the heat as well! If you do not want to disclose that you are not the end-of-the-line host, you will have to be in close contact with the private server owner to resolve technical issues before they come to the attention of your own customers.
