Hosting Best Practice

Hi All!

I have a reseller account with A2 Hosting (amazing provider), where I host many sites. In terms of "risk management", is it advisable to have another account with another hosting company? Is there any benefits of having more than one reseller hosting account? Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    The advantage is pretty obvious. If A2 Hosting has a hardware or service issue on your server, everything you have hosted with them goes down at once. If you split things up on different accounts, a service break is not going to damage your whole portfolio.

    Also, if you maintain regular backups, you can immediately put backup files onto another account and get the downed sites back online.
