Overselling in the hosting industry is a term used to describe situations that take place when an web host sells more than their servers and/or infrastructure are capable of providing. Itfs certainly the major cause of laggy sites and random slowdowns and is the main plague thatfs hunting the industry. Humans are greedy by nature, nothing can help that. But Overselling should be controlled and kept at a minimal to allow everyone a better web.
However, reseller hosting does not have this issue. Reseller hosting accounts do not come with an eunlimited everythingf, and as such, the seller is restricted on what he can sell and how much of it he can sell. This allows one to at least have a sane hosting environment and reduces chances of unhappy customers in your reseller hosting venture. Since more customers always mean more reputation, this is something that everyone should keep in their minds. People should be careful not to go overboard with overselling resources they do not have.

Wednesday, April 6th, 2011The thing about reseller hosting, especially when it comes to competing with others who are in the business as well, is that the competition isnt really found with the putting up of the business itself. Obviously, youre selling the same thing web hosting space and most likely youre offering the services at the same price as well, assuming youre looking at the same web hosting package (i.e. both are at 5MB or similar).
So where does all the competition come in? One of them could be found in advertising, and how companies present themselves to their consumer base. But the real battle is found in making good value for your reseller hosting. But as to how you can achieve this exactly, its found in the content of your package. And its not just about the storage space content, its about the bonuses, tools, freebies, and everything else that comes with the package. Your goal is to make your reseller hosting products worth more to your clients at the same price as others.
