interesting problem when you succeed.

I'm making decent money online. Mainly my ecommerce site + nice blogs(not auto) +misc sites.

My sites are getting bigger and bigger im getting a good dedicated hosting now. They will all be hosted there. I got all my domains at namecheap.

No of my sites break any law but sometimes i'm thinking what if i get some DMCA for breaking copyright or some law changes, i dont know. And they will take the data from my server or my domains. I do backups, but i dont know how to secure my domains. I think i should move good domains to different registars. I know Harro once mentioned a company stole his good domain.

So now after i got 6 successful sites i'm thinking to try some turnkey solutions where i dont own the domain and the server. I'm thinking to try developing good sites on wordpress, typepad, blogger, etc. That's why im making this post.

What other free/commercial (i dont mind the monthly cost) web properties WHICH YOU CAN MONETISE would you propose, also you can elaborate on what i've written above.

thanks

Business is a risk, try and reduce your risk as much as possible. You've got 6 sites that will be on one registrar and one host - make 6 more with a different registrar and different host. Work to get them producing at least as much as your original six. This will help you diversify

Dont do that if you want long term stability - you dont own the domain and your not paying anyone for a service, think how much easier it would be for them to turn of the light switch and not give two cares in the world about you and your income.

Expanding on what you've learned works, will make you more money, faster. Diversify in this way...
