Hi, I am trying to decide between a shared account or a re-sale account in the short term. My initial goal is to build a website for my local neighborhood to share information/articles within our immediate location. In addition, I would like it to have a forum for discussing relevant topics and sharing items between neighbors. If it goes well, I will then work on additional sites for nearby neighborhoods doing the same thing. Each neighborhood would have its own site linked from the main site and access to the forums to share things between nearby neighborhood residents. I can foresee the branch sites having someone locally in charge of certain aspects of the site so would need to give them a control panel which has me leaning towards the reseller option, however it may take quite some time to get the first site going and I would rather not spend money on the larger package if it does not take off at all. I know I can upgrade later, but is it possible to go from shared package, building my neighborhood site/forum and a couple other neighborhood sites, and then when needed, branch them off with control panels of their own? Meaning only one control panel using the shared package with me in control of my neighborhood, build additional neighborhoods with their own sites, but then as needed upgrade and separate them into sites with their own control panels after upgrading to the re seller option? In the beginning I would have full control of all sites, only later would there be a chance of passing off sites to others
