    Just search for "multiple domain web Hosting". Everymanhosting.com is very good, but based in the UK.

    Any cPanel host where you are allowed "addon domains" should work. (Not parked domains which point to your main docs folder, - addon domains reside in their own subfolders in your account, but still in the same account, with same login.)

    i use directnic, they may not be considered a Hosting service per se`, but i can access all my domains with the same ftp account using cuteftp.

    currently i use their free hosting, which is included with domain registrations.

    I think most hosts that allow you more than one site / domain will do this.

    I think most / all registrar / host companies do this, HostMonster does it.

    Just login to ur ftp using the root / default ftp account. This is the account which uses your first or primary domain. You will have all the hosted websites available as subfolders.

    Why do you say dreamhost stinks?
    Is it Uptime, interface, support, price?

    i was with dreamhost from 2001 until now. i had enough of their downtime. support was bad.

    the custom control panel they have is very good.

    i had their bad shared Hosting then went to their private server option in the hopes i would get better performance. that was not the case. it ended up being cheaper getting a dedicated server.

    i think what you are saying is what gorlov said above.

    i was using the cpanel web hosting manager. so when i ftp to the main account i didn't see sub folders for other sites. the other sites had their own usernames and passwords.

    but like gorlov said if you add on domains to one account that username will have ftp access to the names added via that cpanel account.

    I use BlueHost.com They are the best Hosting company I've ever used. Very very rare downtown... I use the addon feature on some 13 domains. And if you use the discounts they have online... I think I paid $4.95 or $5.95/month. Unlimited bandwith, unlimited disk space... etc. fantastic customer service too.

    Use hostgator, ive actually never seen any downtime there personally, if you add the domains to your account as addon domains (you get unlimited of them), you can login to ftp using your main username then access the files in public_html/domain.com/ via any FTP client. The link in my sig will give you instructions on how to get your first month free!
