Default Moving another forum to HG

Hi guys. I currently have an account with HG under the hatchling plan with one forum on it which freeforums.org moved over for free.

Now i have plans of moving another forum site still from freeforums.org over to HG. My question is what would be the best thing to do. Should i upgrade to the baby plan so i could accomodate the 2 forum sites that i have? They have different domains. Or would it be best to buy another hatchling plan? And another question is, if i have 2 hatchling plans, will there be a problem having 2 cPanel?

If you upgrade to baby, then both of your sites/forums will have to share the resources allocated to one Cpanel.

If you choose to get another hatchling plan, then each one of your sites/forums will have the resources allocated to one cpanel.

When you get 2 hatchling plans there is no "problem" in having 2cpanels. You just have two of them & use them as separate accounts without any "problem".

Keeping the two fora on different accounts makes much more sense in many situations.

It's easier to make a domain an addon than it is to unmake it as an addon and move it if you ever want to transfer its hosting or sell it, unlike having its own cPanel account.

You'll have better control, better data about usage, and most important, twice the server resources if they're separate accounts.

Or you can upgrade to a reseller server, pay one monthly fee, and have as many domains and cpanels as you need.
