In addition to hosting resource-demanding sites, there's a further reason to buy a virtual or a dedicated server of your own - to make your hosting company. This is an ever-growing business, due to the fact that more and more people and businesses start their online presence, which means that they need website hosting space and a domain name. If you have a website hosting server, you will be able to make hosting plans and sell them, so you can not only cover your own expenses if you host your personal websites on the server too, but you will also make a very good profit by running a flourishing business. What you need for that is a server, payment software, that will be the link between the reseller website and your web space, as well as a business account with a payment processor like PayPal or 2CheckOut, in order to be able to receive online payments. The benefit from reselling server space over the use of a standard reseller program is the fact that your clients will have additional system resources and you'll be able to install the server-side software that their Internet sites may need in order to work effectively. The aforementioned is not possible with a shared web hosting reseller program, since you'll have specific limitations in this regard.
