Reseller hosting

What reseller hosting is, who it suits (agencies, freelancers), and the checklist we use before recommending a reseller plan.

Updated · By the GetBestHost Editorial Team

Quick answer: Reseller hosting lets you rent a block of server resources and split it into separate hosting accounts for clients, each with its own control panel. It suits freelancers and small agencies that host 5 or more client sites. We have not yet published reseller plan reviews, so this hub explains the checklist we use. Ranked picks will be added once plans are verified.

Our reseller checklist

  • WHM/cPanel account limits and the renewal price per account
  • White-label branding (custom nameservers)
  • Backups per client account and restore cost
  • Data-center regions near your clients
  • Billing integration (WHMCS or similar)
  • Overselling signals: inode and CPU limits in the terms of service

Frequently asked questions

Who should buy reseller hosting?

Freelancers and agencies hosting several client sites who want separate cPanel/WHM accounts without running their own VPS.

Reseller vs VPS?

Reseller is easier: the host runs the server. A VPS is more flexible and often cheaper at scale, but you manage it yourself.
