Free webhosting

Post by **Sparkfist** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 9:03 am

My friend is looking for a free webhost that also supports MySQL. He mentioned that he's looked at LiquidH, and that its (more or less) the best he's looking for.

This might be good for me too as Gannon's bandwidth isnt what it used to be. Well if I get around to making a website I'll likely use the info from this if Doomportables isnt like it used to be later down the road.

it was started by abbibi, but he left and had me and gannon take over.

As for free hosts, free100webs is my favorite. the ads are not very intrusive, and there are many features, including MySQL.

Best one ever? Unlimited bandwidth!

yeah but only 50 MB of space.

Well all I know is that all of these said hosts are better than Geocities and Tripod, who offer piddling amounts of space and barely any bandwidth.

I use 100webspace. I would use www.dot.tk, but they don't let me use a favicon.ico file and I don't like the intro redirect page.

ISPs never give good webhost services, it just doesnt happen. Ever.

Comcast. No ads, unlimited bandwidth.

But how much space?

Yeah, AOL hosting sucks. You not only have to pay the insane price of their service, but from what I have seen it's no better than GeoCities.

25MB.

I have comcast, why wasnt I told about this? Do you get a domain name?

Post by **SpongeBuell** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 6:53 pm

I doubt it, since that cost could add up. You could always use .tk.

You have to enable it. I am playing 8-Ball with Triton right now, can't help you. No domain, just a /~username/

Ok, its not free...but its only $20 a Year. If you don't have a domain name its $10 a year for that but for $30 a year for unlimited bandwith and server space...
