You mean something like paying a fixed price per month and you can register as many domains as you want? I have never heard of a service like that.

Is that possible? Wouldn't they loose money if one of there clients buy a million domain name. I cannot see that being possible, though if it is... send me a link... *I'm interested*
You as I am sure you know, can have *unlimited domain* sign up, if you would be a reseller account. Some hosting companies try to tell you how many clients you can have, so I have heard the term *unlimited domain* when they are talking reseller accounts and the freedom to split up your account anyway you like with however many clients you want...

When I read the post, I thought he was looking for a hosting account where he he could host multiple domains.
Sure, but then it would be in the wrong forum :D. I will move it based on his reply.

LOL! There won't be such a plan. I guess Barbara is correct: Denzo is probably looking for a HOSTING plan that allows an unlimited number of domain names. From what I know, you'll almost definitely need to pay extra cost PER NAME unless you are simply parking, redirecting or mirroring.
Ok, I'm a newbie in this. I admit. But could you guys have a look at the following links and tell me what they are about then?

These say they give you unlimited domains and give you hosting. I was hoping there was a plan with the unlimited domains but without the hosting. Guess that doesn't excists. But for the plans I mentioned, what can I expect?
well it seems like you can host a unlimated amount of domains on there as long as you have hard drive space/bandwidth to give out with each account.
so you do have a limit on that respect but other wise they dont say you can only host 25 domains or 100 doamins.
Well, I allready have 'unlimited' space and bandwidth hosting (made scripts for host and he gave it to me for free), so if I just link them domains to that host with some apache and php I can indeed have 'unlimited' domains.

Hmm ... there is really no such thing as "unlimited" disk space or bandwidth, not even with your father-in-law. But of course, if you are only talking about a few dozen domain names and it's a close friend, they probably won't say anything; but don't push your luck and build your own hosting company around that. ;)
Thats why I use 'unlimited' and not unlimited. And he is a close friend. Was just wondering if I could realize something like this.

I think you're confused. None of those plans give you unlimited domains. They are hosting plans where you can host any amount of domains you own (or will own) on that plan (limitations will most likely apply). If you have space from your friend, then you don't need to sign up for another hosting account, to use your domains. It can be done with DNS and redirection, from registrars such as Enom (suggested above). Your friend can also set this up on the server, but he may not be willing to let you host multiple (let alone unlimited) domains on that account. If he doesn't allow it, and finds out you're doing it, he's not going to be extremely happy.
If you want to have multiple domains on your friend's account, the best thing to do is to ask him to set up your domains on that account. It's not something you'd buy another plan for, at another provider.
Gonna check Enom and I'll reply later, because we are all confusing each other. (I'm confused anyway lol).
ok, forget the whole discussion. i guess ill just need to register the domains i want at enom or another domain registrar. unless you guys offer me some free domains ;). lol. im just exploring the world of hosting and its kinda new for me. im a php web developer, but the hosting world looks interesting. thanks for sharing your comments with me.

Now that the fee for registering a domain has come down from $100 (per 2 years minimum) to just a little over $5 per name year, it's actually more expensive to get a chicken sandwich combo in the food court. :D
And it always bothered me that some people do not want to pay what they spend on one lunch (which last them less than a day) for a web account that they depend upon day and night for a full month.
Me too, but I'm fifteen and I just don't have a credit card. (Live in Belgium.) That's why I always start websites with 0-budget. That's hard sometimes, because for example they only ask 10$ for a template and you just can't pay.
PS: I do have a credit card, but it doesn't have visa or mastercard, so I can't use it online.
