Will Hostgator allows you to host adult blog?

    My friend told me they allow, but just want to make sure if they do. Any can tell me? One, more thing if they do, why there are a lot of adult sites host on any other sites with Dedicate Sever? why they don't just host with hostgator on SHARE HOSTING with unlimited Space and Data Transfer. Anyone can help me to clear this thing out?

    Why spend 250 dollars a month on Dedicate Sever when you can get 7 dollars something from hostgator? Please help.

    The reason I ask, because I am about to buy a few adult sites.

    shared hosting allow limited resource usage... so you might get banned if its a high traffic site.

    As long as it is not illegal content it is OK. Shared is fine so long as you do not use up to many resources. How many visitors are you expecting?

    I understand that they do allow adult content you can always contact them and make sure, also if your Site gets a lot of visits and takes a lot of resources consider a VPS or dedicated server, I would go for a VPS you can get one for about $20 something good.

    I am not sure, but probably they allow porn in all of their hosting plan.

    You can always use Blogspot, they also allow adult content, and their servers are strong so I doubt they will delete you anytime soon. I know ppl who get atleast 5K visitors to their blog.

    They don't care about your site contents. They only care about your sites resources usage. More usage you use, more chance you'll get banned.
