When it comes to reselling hosting packages, what kind of profit margins can web hosting resellers make? Now since it's such a competitive business, reseller margins would be thin ??

The bigger the package you get for reselling hosting the more profit you can make. Lets say you use a dedicated server to resell hosting and it costs you around £100 to £120 GBP p.m you can earn a good profit as a dedicated server tends to give you good amount of disk space and RAM.

This is a good point by Lee the bigger the server the more profit you could make out of it. You can sell like more than 100 accounts on a dedicated server, depending on the size ofcourse and you can earn good profit then.

If you apply some good business techniques, you can still earn a decent amount of profit margin even if you resell hosting services. Once you know the type of hosting plan or server you wish to choose to resell hosting services, you can hire it from the hosting company for a longer time and save money as the hosting company will definitely offer you some deal if you choose the hosting plan or server for a longer duration. Also, choose a hosting company which allows you to upgrade or downgrade your hosting plan or server at any point of time so that you can do what is to be done when things change in future.
