3rd party article hosted on Weblogs.us:
As a way of earning extra money for myself in order to further stretch my financial situation, I decided to accept web design projects. I have developed my skills in web designing and managing a website through the summer jobs I used to do with a small web design and hosting company in the city. Now that I have earned enough experience as an all around guy in the said company I felt that I now have what it takes to strike out on my own and actually earn from the skills I have acquired through the years.
The services I offered traveled by word of mouth and before I knew it there were inquiries from some small companies and groups with regards to my website creation services. Having known how to make a menu of services from the previous firms I worked for I distributed this and I actually got some pretty good response. A couple of small firms finally decided that they want to try my services and I immediately set up an appointment with the company in order to find out what exactly it is they are looking for in their future website.
When I finally got to sit down with the clients, one thing became apparent; they are running on a tight budget being a small company. Because of this web hosting services that will not cost an arm and a leg.
Fortunately, with the growth and proliferation of reseller web hosting I basically got this particularly thorny issue covered. Reseller web hosting is a great solution for companies who want to use web hosting services on a strict budget.
Reseller web hosting basically involves a reseller who operates and sells parts or particular services of a web hosting operation and using the services, equipment and infrastructure of another web hosting entity. There are some resellers who actually who actually set up a full service business that only uses the software, hardware, and network support of another web hosting company. Others, on the other hand, basically serve as sales agents for the web hosting companies and they offer discounts as well as give a level of technical support to their clients.
Reseller web hosting is perfect for companies like my clients because resellers offer more flexibility in terms of the service that one get. Unlike in a professional or first level web hosting service where one is forced to take the package the company is offering without question or modification. Additionally, resellers also offer a more competitive price point because of the flexibility of the service one can get. I am glad to say that my clients were quite appreciative of the way I handled their accounts especially my efforts to find a more affordable alternative for them. I am happy that they have been impressed enough to actually recommend me to other companies in need of my services.
