Reseller Hosting should be looked at in the same way as the real estate market with homes, but just applied to websites and other internet properties. Reseller hosting is the act of buying hard drive space and/or web domains for online use and selling some of the vacant, unused space to other consumers. It’s just like selling a house, or any other kind of property after one has already bought it. Many different online companies and web brokers are the ones responsible for reseller hosting and usually offer a massive chart of options for those wishing to purchase space from them. Basically, the reseller hosts are the landlords of the web, and they get to decide how much space they want to sell, and at what price they would like to sell that amount of space. This is a practice where the space owner is in complete control of what happens. They control how much they sell, how much it sells for, and who they sell it to.

Reseller hosting should not be confused with those who buy up domain names and then try to sell them to those with products or entertainment amenities of the same name. While reseller hosting can be a very profitable business it is not the same as domain swiping. Reseller hosts own space that they wish to sell to the consumer, not just a name. They own the real web property, and usually sell it to those interested via their websites, which most have as internet service providers. Freezone.co.uk is a reseller host, because they own space they are willing to sell. While some of it maybe free, there are certain options which they make money off of, and eventually that is what makes a company like theirs a reseller host on the World Wide Web.
