Hi ;)
Hello Everyone!
I am thinking of becoming a Gator soon. I was looking into getting the Baby Gator Web Hosting to try out and wondered if I decided to get a reseller package later on how easy it would be to just upgrade? Sales recommened a resller account based on what I currently have. But I don't resell and I don't use WHM accept when I have to edit packages for more BW so I was thinking I may not even need that just yet. I have 15 active domains, about 10gb transfer a month, less than 1gb storage I have 28 more sites in the works and all would be DB driven. Does anyone see any of this being a problem on the normal Baby Gator Hosting Option? Does Unlimited DBs mean size and numbers as long as I have storage? Would that many DBs getting connected too all the time be a problem? Thanks!

Oh and I had to put in fake hosting information and register to be able to post here =/ It kept telling me the image identification was entered wrong but there was no image id box anywhere. So ignore that it says I am hosted here already.

Re: Hi ;)
Hi,
I would recommend, with what you said, getting a reseller account also. I primarily do what you do-- host client websites, not resell hosting. That's OK on a reseller account. With that many sites, you'll want WHM so you can adjust bandwidth, etc..., and so that you can easily keep track of your new accounts. Why not get the cheapest reseller package? Charging even a small hosting fee to your clients will easily make it pay for itself. -Matt

 Which is why I'm thinking of just going the other way...

Re: Hi ;)
Then at least focus on the other part of what I said-- WHM will make it much easier to manage the space and bandwidth of all your domains. If you individually manage bandwidth for your domains, then one getting hammered for some reason won't kill your total site bandwidth, shutting down all your sites--- it'll just take down that one.

Re: Hi ;)
Let me add: I don't mean to be pushy-- you can always go with baby, and then upgrade if you need to. I'm just relaying my experiences. Either way, I'd confirm all the database max connection details with support first.

Re: Hi ;)
By all means be pushy and thanks for the info
 That's what gets me thinking farther ahead.

Re: Hi ;)
Whoops I forgot to login last time =/
Also on the Reseller/WHM lets say one of the accounts is accused of violating the TOS, not saying it will just curious what happens, will the entire account (reseller) get shut down or just that account I made in WHM. I ask because I was reading another thread where someone was forwarding their email and who ever it was being forwarded to reported them and their site got pulled until they could look into it. Just something that came to mind.

I would assume in a shared environment that the entire account and all domains would be suspended.

Actually, its worse than that. When people forward mail to themselves, they report the spam and are in effect, reporting themselves. So people have been suspended based on their own spam reports.

It just got me thinking what would happen in a reseller account.
