I completely agree on this point.

Your criteria to select those 50 to 100 people might be chosen in the way that *Jet* has already described. I'm sure your vision is not to stop with those 50 to 100 people. If all those 50 started earning, you are sure going to continue the same for the next 50.

So as *Jet* mentioned, I'd like to see a separate thread for applications with their business model

1. The niche/theme
2. The target visitors
3. The time duration they need to make it live in case you give him/her permission to host the domain in your server/account
4. Other details that can be revealed to the public (some might not want to give their ideas in public).
5. Probably with a domain name registered, if it's been done already.

You could inform the members that the more details they provide, more the chances of getting into the list of 50 - 100. Other members can even vote/comment for the idea brought up by that particular member.

Hope this helps,

Pothi.
I do not like the idea of asking members to part with such details. This free space should be unconditional and with no approval required or anything from me or anyone else... I am looking for a criteria so that if a member passes that criteria he/she gets the space for a year or two years and thats it... no room for any interference on hat the member's project is and who am I to decide wether a project will be successfull or not.

By the way no host can provide you an unlimited amount of space and nor can a shared hosting account give yu unlimited bandwidth.

They are all marketing gimmick to net people like you.

If the name server wont resolve that domain to the servers ip how would you host it? There is no other way but to redirect ... a 301 redirect may be but thats something search engines dont like... and that site's rankings would never be good.

Besides that when one domain is allowed there would be a restriction on number of data bases aswell...

Any by the way ... without getting into too much complications... not every one is cheeky like you... so thats no issue.
