The concept is simple. One can look at it as analogous to the wholesale business.  In many businesses, the middleman stands to make the most profit. Allow me to explain…

Let us take the example of selling vegetables. They are sold in wholesale prices to local vendors. The local vendors, who acquire it for cheap prices from the wholesaler in turn sells to local customers at higher prices and hence make a neat profit. That is all there is to it.

Similarly for reseller hosting services, the reseller buys large data packages from a main host. Then he sells it to his local customers at higher prices. The advantage here is that the local customers know their market well and can interact on a personal level to sell the hosting packages. This is an important service especially in places like India. At the local level people speak several local languages and are usually unaware of the technical aspects of hosting. As a reseller you explain them the different hosting packages required for their websites in a language they understand.

It is a great service because many people who own small business are confused when it comes to setting up a website. By catering to their needs, not only are you helping them with their business, you also make a lot of money. If your service is professional you will get plenty of word of mouth advertisement.

Furthermore, you do not have to worry about the hardware and software maintenance of the servers. All of those, including security of the servers will be maintained by the main host in almost all cases.

As a hosting reseller your primary responsibility will be to market your services. If your clients have issues with the hosting, you should listen to them and escalate the issues to the main host to get it solved. This is a great business, since most of the time you will be busy making new friends and all you need is a visiting card and good communication skills. You can also do this business anywhere. The main host will provide you with an online account which you can access from any PC. From the online control panel you can add clients, buy more disk space and conduct all your operations from the account.

In most cases you will buy a package (for example 100GB) from the main host. What you want to do with this package is up to you. You can divide this package into 10 equal packages of 10GB each and sell each at a profit. Or you can divide them according to your client’s requirement. How much you charge and how you use your hosting package is up to you.
