Or should I get a second .com domain for my personal website instead of the www. Get the first domain for your personal site, the second one entirely for MOFH.

Probably not if you’re just buying the domain. The registry charges registrars to register the domain, so the registrars have to charge you more to make a profit. 1 hour ago, Jst Tan said: May I ask how do clients abuse the domain, and are there any methods for me to stop it Upload illegal content - use it to host scams and spam, etc. The monitoring system catches a lot of it, but sometimes it gets flagged before the system takes it down. I mean if you want to regularly check every domain you can …. 1 hour ago, Jst Tan said: Also, so I should get a .com domain with the main site serving as the hosting pages, with a www subdomain serving as my personal site, with a .top domain for my clients Yes to the .top. The “www” subdomain and the base domain should always show the same content. For SEO purposes, you should use one or the other, and redirect the other one. For example, if you want to use “example.tld”, you should redirect “www.example.tld” to “example.tld” (Or vise versa). If you want a homepage and a personal site on the same domain, you can do “example.tld” OR “www.example.tld” for your hosting company homepage, and something like “me.example.tld” or “example.tld/me” for your personal site.

You can delegate the www subdomain via CNAME records, even if its on mofh. Again tho, I wouldn't reccomend that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or should I just suspend their acc whenever such thing was found? 3) Ok thanks for your feedback on the .top. So I should make both www and the base domain (.com) to show the hosting homepage, and a subdomain like me.example.com got my personal website. Did I understand correctly?
