A website is simply a series of files that a browser computes as an interactive site.  A “host” is the computer that your website files live on.  When someone visits your site, your domain name (www.site.com) says “go to this host and get those files!”

Obviously you don’t want your computer to be a host – can you imagine if your site went down every time your battery died?  Instead, we hire super computing companies to host our files.  This helps with speed of delivery and uptime (the amount of time your website is accessible to the world).

Popular hosing companies you may have heard of include: GoDaddy, BlueHost, BigScoots, WPEngine, Siteground, and Flywheel (to name a few).  You can absolutely choose one of these companies to go to on your own (though please let me give you my recommendations for which to choose!).

Why buy reseller hosting?

What I am I selling is called “reseller hosting.”  I don’t physically host your website at my house.  Instead, I buy a huge block of server space from a hosting company, and resell it to my clients in smaller pieces.

What do you get from this instead of buying on your own?  In most cases, I can offer a more premium product (faster, larger RAM and hard drive) at a smaller cost to you.

What do I get from doing this?  I’m a TpT seller just like you.  But my hobby is web design and coding!  This stuff is FUN to me.  So I get paid to do my hobby and it helps offset the costs I incur for my own TpT business websites.

Limits?

You may have noticed the fine print on the pricing tables that say: This hosting plans are for websites with up to 10,000 views a month and under 3GB in size.  See FAQ for more information.  Contact me if your site has more traffic or is much larger in size.

Most TpT Seller Websites get traffic in the under 10,000/month category.  If you get more THAT IS AWESOME!!!!  But that means that you need a slightly bigger plan to accommodate your traffic.  I can help you with that, it just won’t be under my standard Silver plans.  Just reach out to me and I can help!

Other thing to note is I do not offer domain based email.  (youremail@yourdomain.com).  In general you shouldn’t let your host also host your email.  When your site is down, your email is down.  I learned this the hard way.  Instead, pay $5/month for GSuite and have peace of mind forever.  I can help you set it up.
