Reseller Hosting for Forums

[Shawn Gossman]

Anyone run a reseller for forum hosting?

Do you still do this?

I have a reseller account with my hosting provider. I currently have two other sites on my server. One of my buddies personal sites and one of his clients.

Is it shared reseller or a VPS or something like that?

I'm on a shared reseller plan that uses Cloudlinux for resource isolation and account stabality.

How is the cost of that versus standard shared versus a VPS?

A reseller plan with CloudLinux is usually more expensive than basic shared hosting, but less than a VPS.


With shared hosting, you’re paying the lowest price, but you’re also stuck with other users on the server. If someone else spikes in usage, you might feel the effects.


The reseller plan with CloudLinux helps by giving each account its own isolated resources, so you’re less affected by other users. Also, you get WHM access, which is great if you’re managing multiple sites. It’s a solid balance between price and performance.


While A VPS gives you more control with dedicated resources, but it costs more and requires more management. Unless it’s a fully managed VPS. So unless you really need the control, the reseller plan with CloudLinux is probably your best bet for stability at a decent price.

That seems like a really good deal!
