Sniper Marketing Tactics

The Categories Of The Web Hosting

Reseller hosting - In reseller hosting, a web hosting provider offers web server storage to third-party (i.e. reseller) at a discount price, who then resell the web server storage to their customers. Typically, resellers are web consultants including web designers, web developers, or system integration company who resell the web hosting as a add-on service to complement their other range of services.

Commonly, resellers can receive up to 50 percent discount on the price of a hosting account from the web hosting provider. And resellers are allowed to decide its own pricing structure and even establish its own branding (in other words, reseller setup its web hosting company on the Internet and start selling web hosting plans under its brand). To the reseller’s customers, the reseller is the web host provider. In cases when technical problems such as server down and access problem arise, the resellers will have to correspond directly with the actual web host provider. Due to the communication process taken place between customer to reseller and from reseller to actual web host provider and back and forth, undoubtedly problems will take longer time to resolve. Except if you’re running your personal website or non-profit website and ready to take the risks of minimal support from the reseller, reseller hosting is generally not a good idea at all. However, the web hosting market today is filled with resellers that sell lowest price web hosting plans.

Now how can you discern the authentic web hosting from a reseller? You don’t judge by the availability of toll-free number alone because some web hosting providers even offer their resellers with their own toll-free number for co-branded technical support. The web host uses the reseller’s name when a customer calls the technical support so the customer will think that the support is directly from the reseller. Likewise, don’t be fooled by the professional designed website alone because it is extremely easy to create a professional looked business website nowadays. In general, resellers can be distinguished from their hosting price and company information.

A genuine web hosting provider in many cases has solid company information like where they publish their financial background, offices and data centers. In comparison, resellers normally do not have solid company background (here is just an example out of thousands out there). Moreover, the hosting price by resellers is generally below $5 per month. So, why settle for resellers when you can find genuine web hosting providers offering superb quality web hosting at the hosting price ranging between $7 - $10.

Therefore, you should not strive to find the lowest price web hosting companies without first considering the quality of the service and support provided. Don’t expect to find any top-level support if you choose to pay only $2 or $3 per months for your web hosting plan. On the other hand, if you are paying just a little more for your hosting plan, now you can discover a list of low cost yet high quality web hosting plans to host your important website.
