Reseller hosting business involves 3 parties - you, your merchant (from where you buy the reseller hosting service) and your clients, where you buy a hosting service from a merchant and then sell it to your customers. Basically, this means that you are reselling the service to your customers and hence, the name is reseller hosting. This is a good option for the aspiring entrepreneurs to start their own web hosting business or current web developers and designers can also add the hosting service to their business.
