How many websites you can host in a budget web hosting plan? For real?
Probably you have asked this question before, how many websites are allowed to be hosted in a budget web hosting plan? If a web host set a limit to the number of addon domains, that will be the domain limit that you get to host. Unless it is an unlimited addon domains hosting package! In unlimited domain hosting plan, they set the limit real high, and that is commonly set to 999 domains!
Is that mean you get to host 999 domain names on that web hosting account? Not really, there is other limitation should be take into consideration. For example,
- Web host can set limit and allows up to 200,000 files to be hosted for user account.
- Web host can set limit on server cpu usage and given you portion of cpu time to use by your account.
- Web host can set limit on mysql database that you get to setup, and limits the database file size that you can have.
And those are the three common limitation that you found in budget hosting services, and those limitation came in for good reason. Limiting the server usages, and preventing over usage by certain demanding users. Shared web hosting plan is designed for everyone, sharing environment, and it should be equal and maintained at all time.
For this good reason, if you are going to host wordpress blog in a budget hosting plan, how many sites you getting to host for real? Its depend of the web host, and the total traffic you get, and the complexity of the site and things that you have in your websites. For example if you are having a lot of simple websites, static site or site with wordpress cache activated, for sure these website runs light can you can have more websites running at one time. For this type of websites, we can have 5 or 10 or 20 or 50 websites hosted in one web hosting account. Plus, some domain parking or a lot of it. And some adsense website that running on simple site. You really can have large number of websites hosted in one budget hosting plan.
If you are having 50 websites, and the hosting services cost you $5 dollars per month, that is equal to 10cent per website each month. That is true value for money. And if you are earning from google adsense, 1 click per website each month is a break even. With unlimited domain hosting plan, websites running adsense profit are the real money making websites. Cost are keep low at all time!
