Hi boyz and girlz...I'm a longtime lurker, new poster.

I'm looking at hosting several domains, a few of which I operate as separate businesses, plus a few which will serve as sample sites I have created for promo purposes. I'm basically seeking the most cost-effective way to do it. I believe I'm faced with the following options:

-go with a host that offers true multiple domain hosting (I'm investigating Focal and others.)
-opt for a reseller account and just use it to store all my domains (McHost and others are options I'm checking out, as well as general reseller plans from top-rated hosts like VO and HostingMatters.)

My gut feeling is that a competitively-priced reseller plan that allows any number of domains as long as space and bandwidth is respected is where I should lean (as oopposed to a reseller plan that also dings you per new domain you add), but I'd appreciate any comments from other posters.

Thanks in advance.

Hi!
I would say belive in your instincts here... :)
If your budget is low then go with the with the last option.
Otherwise any other plan is also OK.

My only suggestion would be to select a reliable host because all your business would be based on it..

Have a great day :)

It seems like the reseller account would be the way to go. you could then add and delete your promo sites at will.

Heck you could even resell some space to caover any costs you might be paying. ;)
