Why Build 1 Site, When you can Build 2? - question

[Skeewe]

When you expanding your niche with additional sites, is it good idea to keep them all at same hosting provider (and get discount ;) ) or different provider for each site?

[ZigE]

I just have a reseller account at a hosting company, and set unique ip's for each site I make. It's cheap enough, from 25 - 100/mo

I'm not sure if a different IP helps at all, but as cheap as it is I would get one.

So what would be answer to my question?
Keep all your sites on different providers and different IP addresses?

[Chris]

If the same provider can give you different IPs, might as well stay. If not... spend the little extra to go elsewhere. Its less than the cost of a pizza a month, not a huge deal.

I don't know if that helps, but I keep related sites on different IPs whenever possible.

It should not be a problem to have 2 sites at the same howting company

If the niche is the basically the same for the 2nd site, I don't see why you would need a new host or IP address. It's okay to cross-link them.
