Multiple Domains One Host

Ask Pat Podcast

Anyone who is trying to build passive income streams I’m sure has heard of Pat Flynn over at Smart Passive Income. Not only does he have extremely helpful information, but he seems like one of the nicest guys around. I was listening to his podcast Ask Pat, episode #259 while I was out hiking yesterday and I came across a piece of information that was ground-breaking for me. Maybe most people knew this already, but I truly did not.

Multiple Domains One Host

The thing I learned was that you could have one hosting account but use multiple domains with it. For example, I used GoDaddy to host my other site, Jackie Bolen as well as register the domain name (jackiebolen.com). Hosting is around $70/year and the domain is about $15, but there are plenty of special offers if you get both at the same time and use coupon codes, etc.

I wanted to get some additional domains for my Ebooks, but I thought I’d need a separate hosting account, which would have been quite expensive. BUT…I could use the hosting account I had already and run additional domains (like University Jobs Korea) through it and just have to pay the $15/year for the domain. It took a wee bit of googling and minor frustration to figure out how to link them together but it wasn’t that hard. Pat said that as long as your don’t have a ton of traffic on your sites, it’s all good and not a bad way to get started for cheap.
