A Closer Look at Reseller Hosting Services
Reseller hosting services are an opportunity for those who wish to sell the temporary or unwanted space of their server, previously owned. People involved in this business would work as a person managing and keeping an eye on the details of selling the server space. The reseller hosting service provider handles the transfer of hosting space between clients and applicable server.
Basically the actual customer buying the space is buying it from the host of the web space. Reseller hosting service is more like the space being resold.
The Process Of Selling:
Once the space of server has been purchased, the customer service is handled by the real service provider. The reseller hosting services are continuously being updated and all the features are provided to make the service easier for the clients. The changes are required to make sure that the system is running smoothly. The competition in the market is ever changing so one has to make available more options for the investing clients.
The Middle Man:
The reseller hosting services are basically provided by the middle man. He purchases the space from people who wish to sell it. Then he starts finding those who wish to purchase this space. The affordable hosting provided assists in ensuring that the space sold would be filled sooner or later.

Run Away & Hide! When A Hosting Company Offer You Unlimited Bandwidth And Disk Space.
These days “Unlimited packages” being offered by many web hosting companies and web hosting reseller. Be it dedicated server or virtual private server, people are just looking for cheap webhosting. demand for unmetered bandwidth and unlimited ftp space have become increasingly common. Companies are claiming to provide unlimited disk space and bandwidth. This is just an advertising gimmick.
Bandwidth is the quantity of data that is transferred, from and to your server. Let me do some math. Let’s assume, you have an HTML file that is 60 kilobyte in size. If anybody accesses that file. he will use 60kb of bandwidth in that particular data transfer.
Let’s assume your website gets 100 hits a day. This means 6000kb of bandwidth utilization per day. If we expand it to monthly basis. the total bandwidth required would be 180MB
6000kb * 31 days = 186000kb (roughly 180 MB)
Using the method I mentioned above, anyone can determine their bandwidth requirement. Also you can decide if you need a dedicated server or a virtual private server called vps. (by the way in webhosting linux is better than windows vps)
Size of your website and it’s popularity are the basic and most important factors that you should keep in mind when choosing a web hosting package. A little website with just a few static HTML pages containing some images can easily fit into a small hosting package that offer 200MB space and 1GB monthly bandwidth. On the other hand, if you have a website that is huge and contains audio and video files and it is visited by thousands of people every day – you must consider a package that is large enough to keep all you files and should allow at least 300GB of monthly bandwidth aka data transfers.
List of Free Linux/Unix Shell Account Providers
A Unix shell or Linux console is a personal account which allows users access to a command prompt on another machine. We mentioned those earlier in our Post about Linux Commands , With these accounts you can login to a remote server and execute commands on it. These accounts are normally accessed via SSH. Historically we used telnet for that but now telnet is fast becoming obsolete due to security concerns. These free shell accounts can be used to practice your Linux / Unix skills as well as making most out of IRC, Email, web hosting etc. 
The free Unix shell accounts listed below are all provided by not for profit organizations. The existence of these non-profit organizations is vital for Internet community.So it is not good to bring them down. (you know what I am talking about).
