I started my Blogging last September 5th 2008 and as a beginner my earning has been impressive if not unbelievable. On my first few days finding a good template layout and configuration is not really a problem as I have the computer skill (i think), driving the traffic really is the problem. What is the use of good site layout if no one is visiting your Blog? If you have no visitors means no one will click your advertisement and there is no way you can earn money from it. Driving traffic is not really hard, once you have done correctly you cant stop the massive traffic pouring in your website. And if you have a lot of traffic that you are supposed to, your hosting provider might BAN you without warning!

This is our experience. My brother offer me to host my two domain on his “shared hosting” to save money and maximize our hosting monthly fee. But in the end, we find our domain name abandoned and leave our website DOWNED for a few days because of EXCESSIVE TRAFFIC that according to them affects the other users as that is a shared server/hosting. We feel unfair for that as stated on their email, I don’t remember the exact sentence, “we are not allowed to avail on their service anymore due to excessive traffic that affect the other user of their server and we are advised to look for new hosting provider.” It is good for us as we have backup hosting and it takes only few days to backup and restore the site in the new hosting and that is HostGator.

HostGator Hosting Plan is far better from the other. Unlimited hosting, sql database, unlimited bandwidth and Storage for less than 10 bucks monthly is affordable enough to satisfy us. Their 24/7 technical support are also satisfying and they will not leave you with your site downed for a long time. Actually excessive traffic will be your always a problem if you have many domain parked in your hosting and if those domain has a good traffic. They will really shutdown your domain specifically not the whole hosting immediately if they see the specific domain are using lots of your server’s memory, but at least they will give you an advice how to correct that. If your domain is really busy, they will require you to install WP Super Cache, this is very helpful wordpress plugin that will improve your site loading time and helpful for the hosting server also. I like it!
