Good lord! That is an awesome deal! Thanks, you encouraged me to possibly get my own website

(not sure, though... don't want info given to public with WHOIS)

edit: also, it looks good in Firefox, noob.

Lol, what. Anyways if you decide to get a website there tell me before you do ok? Also they have people who do graphic design and coding, but its way to pricy for me. If you would like to talk to them more.

Wow! Unlimited space and bandwidth for only $22 a year! Surely there must be a catch...

This may sound like a dumb question, but how can I make a website that is viewable my mobile phones.

Which is generally looked down upon. My preference is for the font you used in the news. There are no serifs in that font, and personally I prefer fonts like that. They look more clean to me.

Thanks, I didnt notice that. Ill fix it soon.

It might have been a typo. Anyways there is no catch they showed me about 20 diff websites they host, and they have domain names for 10$ annually. Guys if you do sign up, could you let me know before you do? Thanks a lot. And no I dont work for them. ( I might in the future though)

With unlimited bandwidth and disk space, Ben could pay $22/year rather than hundreds. But benheck.com would single handedly put them out of business.

could you tell me a couple of them? I'd like to see how fast they go, especially with a relatively slow server.

The thing is, webhosting costs next to nothing, you know how much people profit from them. And yes I already PM'ed ben about them. Cause im a good guy. also IRC is down. Just go to there irc channel and ask them for a couple samples.

Yes. Zero Wing. One of the most famous poorly translated video games ever.

Me and my friends will probably be buying a website from there, and I will probably be buying a personal one at some time. And they're going to regret the 'unlimited' statement, as we'll be uploading many home movies.
