By using control panel solutions such as Plesk or cPanel, you can divide all or part of your VPS hosting server into shared hosting accounts. You can then use these accounts to host sites that you have developed for your clients, or you can even offer reliable and safe hosting as a separate service.

VPS reselling using a VPS hosting account that is managed by a reliable hosting company lets you combine the top-level security and management services of your VPS host with your own control over billing and other hosting functions. Getting started with a reseller VPS account is just a matter of letting your host know that you need a cPanel or Plesk reseller panel that lets you set up as many accounts as you need on your VPS virtual server.

Many hosts allow their VPS reselling clients to brand their own shared hosting services. This is usually only a matter of making adjustments on the control panel or other interface provided by the host, and the same control panel lets you determine how much space you want to allot to each account.

For instance, you may be using half of the capacity of your VPS hosting account for your own work. You want to use the rest to provide hosting to ten of your clients, and to be able to bill them every month. All you need is a cPanel VPS or Plesk VPS control panel that includes functionality for reseller VPS services. On many VPS accounts, the account control panel is standard as you can use it to divide the virtual machine for any purpose, whereas the extension for reseller features is available at a reasonable monthly fee that is easily passed on to your clients. Alternately, it is possible to sign up for a specially designed VPS reselling account and to use part of it for your own work.

Once you have set up the 11 accounts, you sign your clients on to your hosting package, and they then have the level of access to their own hosting control panels that you choose to give them. Billing or debiting of cards is then handled automatically from the reseller function of the panel.

Reseller VPS is an ideal solution for web developers who want to provide their clients with hosting that the developers can control so that they can maintain the sites and applications hosted on the VPS account. It allows developers to take advantage of the reliability and security of their VPS to provide convenient hosting solutions for their clients.
