Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: Seraphim Pride on July 12, 2002, 11:55:57 AM: I\'m looking for a good place to make a site and host some pics and stuff. Tripod and Geocities suck so I guess I\'m gonna have to bite the bullet and pay so what\'s good.

Post by: shockwaves on July 12, 2002, 12:07:38 PM: Don\'t pay for just pictures and stuff!

I host mine on hypermart. Technically, it\'s only supposed to be for businesses, but they never check. It\'s free too, although you need to give a credit card they can charge if you exceed the bandwidth limits. Try that out first.

http://www.hypermart.net

If you absolutely need a pay host though, paid host I use, for websites and stuff, where hypermart would have popups, is http://www.34sp.com It\'s this cheap little british server. Only like $22 for a year or something.

Post by: Seraphim Pride on July 12, 2002, 12:26:49 PM: Thanks I was just looking around on google and found this site http://www.swhu.com/bronze.php it seems impressive and more than meets my needs besides it\'s only $3 a month for the cheapo plan.

Post by: Cerberus on July 12, 2002, 12:44:27 PM: I recently found a decent one.

Freewebz.com

up to 100 MB space, no banners, no popups, totally idiot proof (even I managed to figure it out).

Best of all, IT\'S FREE!!!

Post by: Titan on July 12, 2002, 04:35:10 PM: How come when I ask for help on a web host, my thread didn\'t get one hit, but when someone else needs help, they tell exactly where to go?
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: Cerberus on July 12, 2002, 04:43:01 PM: I didn\'t know you asked for help.
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: theomen on July 12, 2002, 04:50:55 PM: I use 50meg.com, but I just need it for my avy.

What does a 50MB avatar look like? It must have a fair amount of detail.
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: Titan on July 12, 2002, 04:57:36 PM: You cant have any bigger than like a 1MB avatar.
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: Cerberus on July 12, 2002, 04:58:32 PM: I know.
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: theomen on July 12, 2002, 05:00:15 PM: i meant that I use the webhost "50meg.com" but I only use it to host my avatar. I don\'t use all 50megs for my avatar, I just went there so that I wasn\'t limited on the bandwidth usage.
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: Cerberus on July 12, 2002, 05:02:13 PM: I refer you to my last response.

Title: Does anyone know a good web host

Post by: orphy on July 12, 2002, 05:47:09 PM: Hypermart kicked off one of my accounts for disabling ads, but they said they\'d give me 48 ours to enable them again. Stupid mofos shut me down in about 4 hours.

There really are no good hosts out there. Netfimrs.com is alirght though.

ANYWAY, I just signed up for this. I can\'t upload files. I have to pay. I can\'t check traffic. I have to pay. I\'m sticking with GeoCities until someone shows me something better.

It only has a banner on the page, thats it. Which you can disable with positioning.
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: Titan on July 12, 2002, 07:41:54 PM: Cool. Thanks. Its getting late. I\'ll check it out tomorrow. Can you upload files to it without paying? I want a free web host temporarily until I can find a free one that will give me my own domain.
Title: Does anyone know a good web host
Post by: orphy on July 12, 2002, 08:14:33 PM: Yes, you can. But they have a file size limit of 250kb, which shouldn\'t become a problem unless you\'re uploading large CS screen shots like me. :-\\
