Should You Use Shared or reseller Hosting?

Many new and not so new marketers ponder over whether they should use shared or reseller hosting. Many do not even understand the differences between the two. Both reseller hosting and shared hosting are very common amongst internet marketers in the world today. Although some do make use of dedicated hosting, this should only be considered when your presence online has grown to such an extent that your current hosting can’t handle it any more.

On the whole, internet marketers around the world prefer shared or reseller hosting to anything else. Both plans come with their own different options, suitable for most small to medium online presences. The question is though, which is best for your situation?

Those having only a couple of sites with low traffic stats normally find that shared hosting is more than enough for their requirements. The main reason for this is the price difference; shared hosting is only a few dollars per month, whereas reseller hosting can start at twenty-five dollars for a month.

Conversely, having lots of websites, or planning to add more in the future, then going for reseller makes more sense. Normal reseller plans usually consist of having around 250GB of bandwidth each month along with 25GB of disk space to be playing with. Just so you can compare these numbers, a normal website would use around 2Gb of bandwidth each month, while using only about 75MB of disk space.

From this you can see that reseller hosting allows you to have many sites hosted. This would make much more sense for an internet marketer rather than having the shared hosting plan. So, as you can see from the example above, all things shared and reseller doesn’t have to be confusing at all.
