A reseller account is a lot like shared hosting, but with a special twist. A reseller account lets you own multiple sub-accounts under your own name, allowing you to resell our hosting services to your own customers under your own name.

Up until a few years ago, the common wisdom was that a VPS was better for hosting clients than a reseller account. And to be fair, this was definitely true — ten years ago. But over the past few years, shared and reseller hosting alike have become more stable, more powerful, and more secure. This is due in large part to innovations like LiteSpeed and CloudLinux. LiteSpeed can dramatically improve a web server’s performance, while CloudLinux keeps customers from stepping on each others’ toes.

Since each account under the reseller account is its own separate account, a compromise of one account won’t impact the others. This acts as a sort of firewall between each account and can help protect against the spread of malicious exploits.
