Resellers

There are two major types of reseller hosting accounts. One type is merely an affiliate agreement where your hosting company own the customer. The advatange is that you may not need to deal with the billing and support of the people you refer to the hosting company. However, the disadvantage is that you make a lot less money and you do not own the customers. The type of reseller hosting account you should look for is one where you get to do private label branding, instead of merely refering customers to the hosting company. Private label branding means your customers go through you. You have more control over the customer experience, and you can take your customers with you if you decide to switch hosting companies.
