Hey everyone, I’ve been thinking about starting a side hustle reselling hosting services, but I’m not sure where to begin. A while back, I used a hosting service for my personal blog and wondered if I could offer something similar to others. How do I get into reselling hosting? What are the basics I need to know before diving in?

Reselling hosting can be a side hustle. Sign up with a reliable provider (like your blog host) that offers reseller plans. These let you buy hosting in bulk at a discount to resell at your own price. Before you start, research providers and their offerings. Learn web hosting basics (storage, bandwidth) to answer customer questions

Choose a good hosting provider. If you need assistance, they’re just a message away.
Also, as someone else mentioned, they might ask for help often. This could be because you haven’t documented things well or set clear limits.
Hosting support should be straightforward. They shouldn’t keep bothering you for routine tasks or instructions. Those usually come with additional fees for maintenance.
I do not propose reselling hosting unless you are technically proficient. You should be an experienced developer who can transfer your clients’ websites for free and resolve any PHP, database, and script issues.
