Ninjakreborn Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I have seen hundreds of web hosts.I am wanting to be able to have one sort of likewww.bluehost.combut they only allow a certain percentage of computer space, they also say that they can't support really large site's. I want to get a permanent place on the internet, one that will fit all of my need's.1. I need one that can hold as many domain name's equally as I want.2. I need one that will allow me to hold all the site's from my network. I have a network of site's I am creating, all under my own company name (freelance businessman), and I want to be able to get them all up and running in my spare time, but I need a place that can support them all, some of them are going to be as huge (space wise), and functionality wise, as some massive site's out there, and over time, if I eventually have 10-15 of them I need a place to hold them all.3. I also need one that will allow me to have extra, extra, extra room aside from my network to allow me to do hosting for various people as well. I want to be able to get client's over to my webhost, and then be able to host there site's for them for a specific amount of money per month. With enough people that I start hosting (just regular clients), then I would also be able to have it pay for itself with income as well.

ober Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 ... are you serious? Any decent host will allow you to expand, buy addon domains, host several sites, and do reseller hosting.I guess I'm not sure what the question is, because if you've "seen hundreds of web hosts", you would know that 90% of them offer such functionality.

redbullmarky Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 look for a dedicated server. if you're a little bit short on the $$$, then a VPS (virtual private server) will offer a nice alternative. tis what i use, and includes all the above. mine: http://www.webfusion.co.uk/vps - prob not ideal for you (UK based) but will give you a rundown on what to expect from a VPS.

If I were going to use a VPS I would use Server powered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
