With hostmonster 300gb hosting plan, you are allow to host unlimited number of websites/domains. This is througth the use off addon domains feature in cpanel. Parked domain is different case, and most newbies got confused with it, and do the wrong thing. Fact is that, you can setup few websites at this hostmonster shared hosting plan. I having 4 websites here, each with own TLD (.com, org, net.. etc)

Domain parking is domain pointers allow you to “point” or “park” additional domain names to your existing hosting account. This will allow users to also reach your website when entering the “parked” or “pointed” domain into their browsers. Meaning giving your website an alternative name. Few domain names, pointed to the same website.

Here is what wikipedia said about parked domains:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_parking
“Domain Parking is an advertising practice used primarily by domain name registrars and internet advertising publishers to monetize type-in traffic visiting an under-developed domain name. The domain name will usually resolve to a page containing relevant advertising listings and links. These links will be targeted to the predicted interests of the visitor and may change dynamically based on the results that visitors click on. Usually the domain owner is paid based on how many links have been visited (e.g. pay per click) and on how beneficial those visits have been. The keywords for any given domain name provide clues as to the intent of the visitor before arriving.”

You can easily access the parked domain feature from the hostmonster cpanel evolution main page. And you are allow to create as many parked domain name as you need it. Here is the account information at hostmonster account shows:

Ever wakeup in the morning, and found out your email account is flooded with junk mail again and again? The right solution to solve email spamming will be using the right tool. At hostmonster, your email account created, will have the spam protection features: spam assissin and boxtrapper.

Spam Assassin : “is an automated mail filter that uses a wide range of heuristic algorithms on mail headers and message body text to identify “SPAM” (unsolicited email). Once identified, the mail is tagged as SPAM for later filtering using the user’s desktop mail client. All spam mail goes to spam box, and you still can check those mail if you like, or delete it with single click of a button.“

Boxtrapper : “protects your inbox from spam by forcing all people not on your white list to reply to a verifcation email before they can send mail to you. You can create your white list and add your contacts to this list. Also create a black list and add all spammer email to this address.”

These are the two most effective spam protection system available today, and its available free of charge at your hostmonster shared hosting with unlimited email accounts.

You also can directly go to your webmail by browsing to yourdomain.com/webmail , and enter email login information to complete the login and goes to your email account. By this, eliminate the need to go through cpanel login.

Hostmonster.com hosting server is so realible, and the downtime is merely impossible. This the main reason i love hostmonster so much. Their web server uptime is good, and email pop/smtp server uptime is good as well. My outlook will connect to hostmonster mail server every 5 minutes to check for mail, and its very unlikely to jump into outlook connection error to hostmonster.

After 4 months with hostmonster, i finally met some downtime at hostmonster server. Its where the website hosted with hostmonster is not available for about 10 minutes. The time i realise it, i had the server status monitoring system running, just to monitor the downtime if any. Email alert arive and i quickly jump to hostmonster.com and start a live chat with the support team to acknowledge them on the site downtime.

And after few minutes with the hostmonster support, and some ping and tracert testing from my pc. Finally found out the problem is caused by internet route between me and hostmonster datacentre. Somewhere between us is having internet failure. Thus result in the downtime of about 10 minutes.

Here is the live chat session that i manage to copy out:

Improved version of the common cgi.

Login to hostmonster cpanel, and you will find the fastcgi under the ’site menu’. Click on it will go to following page:

You can enable or disable fastcgi anytime. And its recommended for php script like joomla or RoR (ruby on rails). Which require more php script processing. For other php script, its adviced to double check that the script is supporting fastcgi. And after enable the fastcgi, double check that your website is running normally as well.

What exactly is hosting rebate and hostmonster rebates? If you are new to these, i need to explain it in simple words to you. Hostmonster affiliate program pays certain amount or sales commission for new customer referred to hostmonster, and generated sales. And once the 30 days had passed, the sales commission will be pay to affiliate. However, there is minimum amount require in order for the payout, if not mistaken its at $130. Meaning you will need to refer few sales, then only you will get paid with the first cheque. Refering yourself will not work for here. Thats why you will need to find a hosting rebate website to help you get some cash back.

I run a hosting rebate website since year 2006, www.hosting-rebate.com and its affiliate to 14 hosting company now. The site is designed to be user friendly. You can read the hosting reviews and this will help you to choose your choice of hosting provider. Once you selected it, proceed with the rebate page and follow the rebate instruction. Hostmonster rebates offered are $25 and will be paid to you after 90th days. Simple as hosting provider may hold the payment for 30-60 days, some will hold it longer. Due to fraud prevention reason. Thus hosting-rebate.com only offering 90th days rebate money.

I firstly setup the rebate site for fun, and use it locally. After few months, it grows and as well getting much more recommendation now. Your rebate money will be in form of paypal cash. So, make sure you can accept paypal money before using the rebate service.

I added in hostmonster rebates after few month promoting it, and after i get used to their affiliate program. And now its in the list of hosting rebate. However, there is no hostmonster coupons code in market, as hostmonster sign up do not require coupon. Thus you can not getting any discount when sign up. If you sign up through hosting-rebate.com, you got a $25 rebates in return. Why not using it instead, right?

Hostmonster hosting is a hosting plan with 300gb storage and you can host unlimited number of websites in single hostmonster account of $5.95(2 year sign up) or $7.95(1 year sign up).
