| Reseller or Dedicated, the choice will be based on your own objectives, considering the financial and strategic plan you have in mind.
IMO the safest bet would be to go with the reseller plan first. If you have absolutely no server experience or you are not very tech savvy, learn with a reseller plan, build up your client base, make a few contacts, get a sound knowledge about servers and then acquire your own dedicated server once you’re ready. | |

| If you are just starting out, start out with resellers, and get dedicated when the times comes but make sure to get managed service with it if possible.

| When you're on your way to start up your business, Reseller plan helps you a lot to know about the panels and the problems that arise in the start. Dedicated at the start needs more care to be taken in terms of data protection from viruses, intrusions and DOS attacks. A lot of effort must be put up in to keep the server secure and online. | |

| If you're familiar with linux commands or can manage the dedicated all by yourself, then by all means dedicated would be the ideal solution for you. | |
