What is reseller hosting?
Reseller hosting provides you with the ability to create individual subaccounts from the allotted disk space and bandwidth of your main account. You remain in complete control by setting the amount of space and bandwidth each subaccount receives. The number of individual hosting accounts (subaccounts) you can create depends solely on your purchased reseller plan. Reseller Zoom offer plans allowing you to create up to 500 accounts and each account get it's own cPanel control panel.

What is overselling enabled?
Overselling enabled is where we take the amount of disk space and bandwidth ACTUAL USE between all your accounts. For example, if you had the 10 GB space and 200 GB transfer plan and you decided to offer plans such as 1 GB space and 20 GB transfer on your site, you would only be able to offer it to 10 clients. With overselling enabled, you would be able to offer as many as you want as long as the aggregated amount USED between all your accounts does not go over the 10 GB space and 200 GB transfer or the cPanel account limits.
