Or he/she should buy a dedicated server or VPS?. Please help me to know properly so that I can step forward. Thankyou!!!
Most of the business owners start their journey on reseller hosting in India (https://www.milesweb.com/reseller-hosting.php). It is expandable onto a leased VPS or dedicated servers or you can buy also when you have good numbers of customers.
For getting an own server, you need deep technical knowledge to manage it, but if you have a fully managed server then you will get help from your provider.
Yup, It is expandable!!
As all said above I agree with them. You can solely run reseller account as long as you or your customers does not exceed the limitations given by your provider.
I have seen many resellers those have 300+ accounts, but on the otherhand, your hosting provider should give you that must freedom.
Why you want to stay on reseller, if you are getting the good response then move on dedicated or VPS servers. First, start with leasing the server then move on as per your requirement.

When you reached your limit, then see whether your provider is helping you to grow your business if not then get a switch on something else.
Definitely, if you are getting the good response then also try hosting servers like dedicated or vps. For starting web hosting business, reseller account is very much beneficial. :)

To some extend reseller hosting is good, but if you want to expand your business, then I would personally recommend you to choose your own dedicated or VPS server so that you'll get more disk space and bandwidth to manage the server.
Holding a reseller hosting account provides you with many options for converting your profit. A Reseller hosting is commonly known as the type of hosting where the owner of that account can sell some space from bandwidth and hard drive to third parties for making a profit. As a reseller of hosting, you are allotted with an amount of specific hard drive space and with bandwidth, where you are able to split it and sell it to others. As a Resellers of hosting you can rent the dedicated server or may use the different type of reseller hosting package for business.
It's a sure Yes!
Being a reseller you can create your own brand name and can create your recurring customers. As the number of customers gets adding to your account it will automatically increase your business. You have the option to expand your reseller account as per your requirement.
