It is not automatically the right choice for every small business. A company that only needs hosting for its own website usually gains little from becoming a reseller.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">The decision becomes more relevant when the business manages sites for customers and wants a recurring service relationship. Branded hosting for small businesses can simplify billing and make the customer experience more consistent, but it also creates responsibilities around support, migrations, backups, access, and account ownership. The commercial opportunity should be judged together with the operational workload.<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:5pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"First_decide_whether_you_are_a_hosting_customer_or_a_hosting_provider\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:15pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#17365d;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">First, decide whether you are a hosting customer or a hosting provider<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">This distinction prevents many poor purchases. A bakery, consultancy, or retailer that needs one website is generally an end customer. It does not need a reseller layer simply because white-label branding sounds professional. By contrast, a small web studio, local IT company, design business, or ecommerce consultant may already manage customer sites and can use white label hosting for small business as an extension of its existing service.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Ask three questions:<\/span><\/p><ul style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-inline-start:48px;\"><li dir=\"ltr\" style=\"list-style-type:disc;font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;margin-left: -18pt;\" aria-level=\"1\"><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;\" role=\"presentation\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Do customers already ask us to arrange or manage hosting?<\/span><\/p><\/li><li dir=\"ltr\" style=\"list-style-type:disc;font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;margin-left: -18pt;\" aria-level=\"1\"><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;\" role=\"presentation\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Are we willing to remain the first point of contact when hosting problems occur?<\/span><\/p><\/li><li dir=\"ltr\" style=\"list-style-type:disc;font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;margin-left: -18pt;\" aria-level=\"1\"><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\" role=\"presentation\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Can recurring hosting strengthen a service we already know how to deliver?<\/span><\/p><\/li><\/ul><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">If the answer is no, a direct hosting plan may be simpler.

They see a reseller panel with many possible packages and launch too many tiers, add-ons, and promises before they know what customers actually need.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">A better white label hosting for a small business launch can start with one or two offers. For example, a standard site plan may include one customer hosting account, SSL, routine hosting support, and a defined mailbox allowance. A care plan may add website maintenance or a higher support level. The exact package depends on the business, but the customer should understand it without reading a technical specification sheet.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">White-label hosting for small business also benefits from explicit exclusions. Development work, emergency content changes, third-party licenses, or specialist email migration should not be silently included unless the price is designed to cover them.<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:5pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choose_an_account_capacity_from_the_customer_list_you_can_realistically_win\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:15pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#17365d;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Choose an account capacity from the customer list you can realistically win<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Large headline limits can be distracting for a small company. The useful capacity question is how many separate customer accounts you expect to manage over the next twelve to eighteen months and what types of sites those customers run.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">For its planned launch, ServerFellows describes reseller tiers with 10, 25, 100, and an unlimited stated client-account band. A small provider evaluating white label hosting for a small business should compare those levels with a real pipeline rather than buying the largest option in anticipation of growth that may not happen.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Account count is only one constraint. Review storage, mailbox use, website complexity, and any fair-use or upstream limits that apply. A portfolio of twenty small brochure sites may have a different resource profile from three ecommerce stores. Branded hosting for small businesses should be sized around the portfolio, not around the attractiveness of the word \u201cunlimited.\u201d<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:5pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Build_a_simple_customer_journey_before_building_automation\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:15pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#17365d;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Build a simple customer journey before building automation<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">A customer should know how hosting is bought, activated, supported, renewed, and cancelled.

This is particularly important because customer relationships can change quickly.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">For white label hosting for small business, record the registrar, registrant details, renewal payer, nameservers, and recovery contact. If the business uses private nameservers, explain that branded DNS is part of the hosting setup rather than evidence that the hosting company owns the customer\u2019s domain.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">The planned feature sheet includes private branded nameservers. They can support a consistent customer-facing identity, but a small reseller should test the delegation and keep a documented offboarding method. A logo and branded nameserver should make the service look organized, not make client assets harder to recover.<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:5pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Put_support_limits_in_writing_while_the_customer_base_is_small\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:15pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#17365d;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Put support limits in writing while the customer base is small<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">A small business can often provide excellent personal service, but that strength can turn into an availability problem. If every hosting customer expects immediate help by phone, WhatsApp, and email at any hour, the owner may discover that low-cost hosting is consuming disproportionate time.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">White label hosting for small business needs one primary support route and a stated support scope. Define whether the customer should contact you for password resets, DNS changes, site errors, email issues, or development work. Define what counts as urgent and what is handled during normal working hours.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Branded hosting for small business does not require a large service desk. It requires predictable expectations. A simple ticket or support email, backed by an upstream escalation route, can be enough if the process is consistently followed.<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:5pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calculate_the_price_using_time_as_well_as_infrastructure\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:15pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#17365d;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Calculate the price using time as well as infrastructure<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">The wholesale platform fee is not the retail price. A small reseller may also pay for payment processing, billing software, backup tools, support time, migration work, and administration.

A small business that only needs hosting for its own website normally does not need a reseller layer. White label hosting for small business is valuable when the company wants to own the client hosting relationship and is prepared to handle billing, support, and onboarding under its own brand.<\/span><\/p><h3 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:9pt;margin-bottom:3pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_How_many_hosting_packages_should_a_small_reseller_offer\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#2f5597;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">2.

One standard package and one higher-service package can be easier to explain, support, and price than a large menu. Add tiers when customers show a real need for them. Branded hosting for small business should make buying simpler, not force customers to compare many nearly identical plans. The internal provider tier and the retail customer package do not have to be the same thing.<\/span><\/p><h3 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:9pt;margin-bottom:3pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Is_private_label_hosting_for_small_business_expensive_to_start\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#2f5597;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">3. Is private label hosting for small business expensive to start?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">The hosting plan is only part of the startup cost. A business may also need a domain or branded subdomain, payment processing, billing tools, support documentation, migration time, and internal setup. Some of those costs are cash expenses, and others are owner time. Private label hosting for small business should be evaluated using a complete startup budget rather than just the advertised monthly reseller fee.<\/span><\/p><h3 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:9pt;margin-bottom:3pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Should_customers_receive_hosting_control-panel_access\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#2f5597;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">4. Should customers receive hosting control-panel access?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">That depends on the service model. Some customers want direct access, while a fully managed website client may prefer the provider to handle routine tasks. If access is offered, keep it limited to the customer\u2019s own account and explain which actions the customer is responsible for. White-label hosting for small business should preserve clear ownership and permissions rather than using one shared login for convenience.<\/span><\/p><h3 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:9pt;margin-bottom:3pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_What_does_%E2%80%9Cunlimited%E2%80%9D_mean_on_a_reseller_plan\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#2f5597;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">5. What does \u201cunlimited\u201d mean on a reseller plan?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">It should not be interpreted as infinite compute, storage, or network resources. Review the provider\u2019s acceptable-use rules, account policies, resource controls and upstream terms. Even when a plan has no stated account ceiling or unlimited storage, technical and abuse limits can still apply. White label hosting for small business should be sold with wording that reflects the real service constraints instead of repeating a headline without qualification.<\/span><\/p><h3 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:9pt;margin-bottom:3pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Which_provider_reseller_tier_is_suitable_for_a_small_business\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#2f5597;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">6. Which provider reseller tier is suitable for a small business?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Use the final live ServerFellows specifications and the number of separate client accounts you expect to manage. The supplied launch plan describes Starter around 10 client accounts and Growth around 25, with larger Agency and Unlimited options. A small provider should choose the smallest tier that covers its real portfolio with reasonable headroom, then verify storage, email, branding, support, and usage rules before purchase.<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:5pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_small_enough_to_operate_the_service_well\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:15pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#17365d;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Start small enough to operate the service well<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">White label hosting for small business can turn occasional hosting help into a clearer recurring offer, but it should be built around customers the business already understands. Keep the package simple, separate client accounts, document domain ownership, price support time, test migrations, and make offboarding possible from day one.<\/span><\/p><p><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.295;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto,sans-serif;color:#202833;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">If the provider is part of the plan, compare the final live reseller offer with the intended launch tiers before committing customer sites. A small hosting business does not need the largest platform; it needs a service it can support consistently and profitably as the customer base grows.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White Label Hosting for Small Business: When Branded Hosting Is Worth It White label hosting for small business is useful [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":25481,"featured_media":5038,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[641],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5008","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-reseller-hosting-explained"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5008","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25481"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5008"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5008\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5042,"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5008\/revisions\/5042"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5038"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5008"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5008"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/serverfellows.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5008"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
