I’ve been on a shared host for a long time because it’s all I really needed. My friend is a programmer and is use to using lots and lots hosting for clients, etc… He told me that he has a dedicated server for a lot of his websites - because it really keeps everything clean.
You never know what someone else has done on that same shared host. I’ve heard horror stories of sites that put in a ton of money for marketing and the site went know where on the SEO side, because it had sites on the same shared host that did blackhat stuff. NOT GOOD!

SharePoint is a web-based collaboration and document management platform from Microsoft. It can be used to host web sites that access shared workspaces and documents, as well as specialized applications like wikis and blogs from a browser. SharePoint does not intend to replace an entire file server (e.g., an imposed 2 gigabyte file size limitation). SharePoint functionality is exposed as web parts, such as a task list or discussion pane. These web parts are composed into web pages, which are then hosted in the SharePoint portal. SharePoint sites are actually ASP.NET 2.0 applications, which are served using IIS and use a SQL Server database as data storage backend.

Either way, many expired domain names are already indexed in search engine results thanks to the marketing efforts of the previous owner. Search engine bots do not take into consideration that there is no longer a website associated with it.

Earlier in this blog I talked about how you can acquire free web hosting for yourself to help save money. There are even a few web hosting companies that will offer ad-free hosting. In exchange for this service, you will view their affiliate ads in your account.
Well, you can also use this concept to gain affiliate commissions for yourself. To get such a setup started, you will need to have shared hosting, either through a service or through your own server. You will also need additional scripting skills to allow customers to see the ads in their accounts. If you do not have these skills on your own, consider finding a programmer through freelancing sites such as Elance or Getafreelancer.
