What are you doing ?

    I have some domains, I want to develop them, however I don't want to spend money on hosting(if it fails).

    So should I make 1 host for 1 domain?
    Or can I make 1 host and use more domains on it, but it has to be different sites. Such as: Example1 goes to example 1 site, and example 2 goes to example 2 site. On the same hosting package.

    What would you do ?



    Thanks ;)

    well, if money is an issue, you might be able to find some providers who offer cheaper plans and will allow you to setup add-on domains, and thats all you'll need to host multiple domains then.

    Let me know if i can further help you,

    Money is not the issue. I just don't want to pay if the project fails. So you say that I can buy a host and then have multiple developed sites on it with different domains(on the same hosting package)

    The host I use is only $1 month...catch being you need to buy at least $10 per order.

    But honestly, if your site ideas aren't even worth $10 to try, your going to fail anyway.

    Okay. I think you didn't understand me. I will use a free host for a test run, but I will definitely buy a host. I was just wondering about:

    yes, this would be called using add-on domains, an add-on domain allows you host another top level domain without needing another plan subscription. Some hosts limit this greatly and some less strict. You will not have a seperate control panel though for that domain. Name server changes are made in the domain control panel that is the add-on domain, then you upload your files into a sub-directory under public_html but your domain is still access via its domain name.

    I suggest you to take a reseller hosting.... Take a reseller hosting from hostgator or wingsix.... i have used them both.... if u need better services with 100% reliability go for hostgator... if u need say 99.9% uptime and a cheaper one then go for wingsix... both are WHM based... and again if you want I can sell a wingsix reseller host to you... I have one reseller account with them which am not using... I will give that for 50% discount to original price. (PM me if you are interested)
