The #1 Factor New Webmasters Forget to Consider when Choosing
a Web Hosting Plan
The Problem
Too often new webmasters sign-up with the first good hosting
plan they see; they purchased a domain name, built up a
site, generated a small income, and decided "Hey, this
works, I should make another site". From there the
webmasters purchase a new domain and begin working on a
new site only to realize that their hosting plan supports
only 1 pointed domain; they will have to purchase an entirely
new hosting plan for each new domain name.
The number of "pointed domains" a web hosting
plan can support is often overlooked by new webmasters.
With so many other factors to consider, such as space, bandwidth,
price etc. it does not immediately seem important. I will
be the first to admit that the first time I ever purchased
a hosting plan I did not even consider the number of pointed
domains. It did not dawn on me until many months later when
I decided I wanted to launch a new website. Fortunately
I was lucky and I stumbled into a plan that allowed for
50 pointed domains.
The Solution
So how many pointed domains should your hosting plan support;
in my opinion as many as possible. There has never been
an instance where I thought to myself "Geeze, I am
never going to have a need for 50 domains that's just a
waste". If you are anything like me you are always
dreaming about that next big idea, that next big website
you are going to build. Don't constrain yourself by choosing
a host that cannot support all your dreams.
