Anyone could think that the next phenomenon is strange: with a single user name and password, a person cracks multiple hosting accounts based on VistaPanel. But there is a single explanation: the login form present on different websites sends the login data to the same database in order to validate the authentication process.

If you will create a free PHP hosting account on the website www.000webhost.com, you will get the web hosting account details needed to login to a VistaPanel control panel to manage your domains and websites. There are many interesting benefits like the possibility of add-on domains usage, domain parking, unlimited number of email addresses, Fantastico automatic scripts installer and more. The features offered by this free hosting service are comparable with a paid one.

By performing various search engine queries for "VistaPanel" keyword you will find more free web hosting services with almost same features but a different description (for example: byethost.com or fasthoster.info). If you type the login details (username and password) on any of these websites (could be more), you are redirected to the same unique hosting account defined on www.000webhost.com website.

Based on this simple experiment, the presence of multiple websites and descriptions for the same hosting service results to be a "good" marketing technique because the number of service users will be increased. The bad part of this technique of web hosting business promotion is represented by the invitation to upgrade to a paid hosting account because you will realize the absence of various features, even if they are specified in the free service presentation.

This free hosting "services" could be tried, but in case you consider to deploy a web based business, it is recommended to select a paid hosting service after you compare the best offers from different hosting providers, not from the same one. As shown in this article, there are always methods to detect whether web hosting offers come from the same provider or different ones.
