Many people are under the impression that unlimited hosting is the answer to all their problems to web site resource management. This is a myth. Web resource management is a key question for any organization, small or big. Any organization with a limited number of employees or participants, need email addresses for them. One key resource is providing email addresses for all the participants. Email Addresses Many providers will limit the number of email addresses you can create and the storage space you can use in each email address. Some providers do not tell you the limits upfront and will implicitly restrict this later on when you start using the service. You should always try to find out from your provider if there are any limits on the number of email addresses beforehand. You don't want to get stuck with a provider and find out later on that there are limits on the number of email addresses you can have or there is a limit on the storage space that each of your email address can have. An unlimited hosting provider may or may not necessarily provide unlimited email addresses for each account. The limit may be one fold, or two fold. You should be aware and ask questions before you buy. Storage Space Many providers say that the storage space provided is "unlimited" so to speak. But none of them technically mean that you can use as much hard drive space as you want. No one in this world can actually provide you with as much hard drive space as you want, because the resources in this world are inherently limited and making a promise of giving you something that implies that it is "infinite" so to speak is counter intuitive. However, that being said - "unlimited" is generally is interpreted as being as required by the user, in keeping with practices of the trade. That being said, as a user you should not imagine that if you need 500GB of space, an account that is $1 a month would be enough for you. If you are a user that is running a video streaming service, you cannot expect that you can host that for $1 per month. Always remember that getting something for nothing is non existent. You never get a free lunch in life. SQL Storage Many providers will restrict the amount of SQL space you can use, the providers do this using Cloud Linux, and by making hard restrictions based on it. Depending on what you need as a user, you should investigate this key limitation for your needs. If you need to make 65000 SQL connections to a 5GB SQL database, you cannot expect to be satisfied with your $1 per month account. Always ask questions, rather than getting into an account that makes you promise a three year contract, before you buy. Rather, chose a month to month account and use it for a few months, and then move to a three year contract to save on money.
