hi,

I currently have a reseller account but when my hosting company eventually starts to get bigger I will need a dedicated server but i'm not sure on what are the main differences that I will gain by getting a dedicated server over a reseller account.

please could someone let me know what I will benefit by getting a dedicated server over a reseller account etc....

thanks......

you own the server, you have root access.

you do not need to share a server.

and well, obviously, you can create reseller accounts for sell

You own the responsibility for security, you screw up and you sort it :-)

If you're comfortable with your chosen OS, then no problem, but I'd think twice or buy from somewhere with support if you have any doubts.

If you're happy with that, then make the jump, it's liberating :-)
