Although the various groups who traveled to the Americas had separate motives, the basic reason for colonization was stated by Richard Hakluyt in his 1584 Discourse on Western Planting:

Extend the new Protestant Christianity to the New World.

Create a basis for expansion of trade.Provide a source of raw Materials Provide military bases to assist in the war with Spain which was ongoing.

Increase revenue for the royal treasury

Find the elusive Northwest Passage to the East.

Provide employment for the large number of Englishmen who were idled.

What caused the dynamic growth of Britain’s North American colonies in the eighteenth century?

The reason the North American colonies continued to grow was because populations continued to grow at a rapid rate throughout the 18th century because of high birth rates and relatively low death rates. Over 90% were farmers, with several small cities that were also seaports linking the colonial economy to the larger British Empire. Let us not forget about the large slave population.
