Are you sure about that? I've set up store.example.com and www.example.com for a site, both as SSL, on a shared hosting account with one dedicated IP and one certificate. All you need is a Wildcard SSL certificate. StartSSL seems to be the cheapest option at USD$40/yr. See other choices at http://www.enom.com/secure/default.aspx

If you are the only person managing the sites, maybe with the occasional FTP access given to someone, a shared account with addon domains can serve you well enough. Otherwise, a reseller hosting account is the way to go. This also has the other obvious advantage that you can offer hosting to others with their own control panels. Not certain but I'm fairly sure you can easily upgrade to a higher plan whether you are on shared or reseller hosting plans

I second that idea, fire up an FTP client or whatever and upload and be done with it, 2 minutes work at most. As someone with many tabs open at once, I'd appreciate this. Or at least to not let Daxx's work go to waste

k.. I'm not interested in carrying this much further. One thing though, don't put words in my mouth. I know exactly who I'm referring to and I am not saying that just because I can do it, other can too, in fact, I explicitly mentioned this in my last post! At worst, I underestimated the technical expertise of a typical user, although you may not be a typical user, as the work you are doing for clients seems to mostly be relatively simple front end only web sites.

In which case you would simply use these free options or even do it manually if it's only for a few clients and be done with it. No, I was not talking about how it is for me, I'm talking in general for it's target audience. I'd say most who would be reselling hosting have enough technical expertise to follow the instructions for a simple billing system. No, installation on phpMyAdmin on shared hosting accounts isn't the easiest and often requires text file configuration among other requirements, few would call that trivial. Yes, I realised that...

I don't know if you should be running a hosting business if you're not willing to invest a tiny amount for a billing application. Besides this, WHMCS and others have free trials. And the installation is trivial.

I'm suspecting the script has to write the image (the generated thumbnail) to the file system and the directory it is writing to does not have adequate permissions. There should be no limitations imposed by Hawkhost as the servers here have up to date PHP, GD and ImageMagick. Try chmodding the directory it writes the images to from 755 (or whatever it was previously) to 777 through your FTP client, e.g. Filezilla.

Filezilla www.filezilla-project.org There are other alternatives and options, including using a browser extension such as FireFTP, however Filezilla is my recommendation for its adequate feature set and ease of use / simplicity.

I'd like to point out that I had a similar issue. It seems remnants of the old support system or whatever is causing separation of accounts, I know have two passwords for things on this site and am sure I've logged into the support center with both these passwords at one point after the other password did not work. I knew what the other password but can imagine that I would have the same problem as "redwingsoh" on one of the "accounts" if I used the "lost password" method.

Wild Card: Does your site have enough traffic that a significant portion of these threads are viewed between link checks? You might be better off only running it on demand, i.e. only when a thread is viewed coupled with what Tony suggested, a "last checked" timestamp for each link so that it only checks once every specified interval. Also, what method are you using to check the links? cURL?

Yes, see "addon domains" in your control panel. Let us know if you get lost as it can be a bit tricky to set up an additional domain for the first time.

What do you like about it? It only lists 10 hosts, it is an average list, hard to compare the listed hosts through the site, and is filled with keyword spam... along with having a poor design.

Yes, and it is enabled by default as far as I know.

I'll jump in and also congratulate Tony, Cody, and the rest of the staff for what is shaping up to be a top web hosting experience. Small enough for close attention and support yet big enough to be reliable, post very low downtime and do so at great prices. I expect that you will be hearing more praise from me and undoubtedly others as the host stands the test of time

I'd also be interested. Jelikin, for the time being, (if you don't know already), you can go the announcements forum and look to the top right of the thread list for "Forum Tools" and select subscribe for email based subscriptions.
