In a word, Yes. This is exactly what it means. I currently have three
domains being hosted from my one account.
Pros: one price tag, shared resources like databases and scripts, very
easy management
Cons: bandwidth, space, email limitations are shared across all
domains. So, for example, if one domain gets really popular and uses
up the bandwidth limit, this will affect all the domains hosted on
that one account.
