I've tried searching the forums, but idk why nothing too good came up. But yeah, I just got my domain, and now I'm looking for a decent free host that:

- Supports PHP (PHP5, preferrably)
- Allows subdomains
- Has at least 700MB of web space
- Offers an FTP account
- Is fast enough, of course, especially in uploading
- Allows .htaccess files
- Doesn't have a file size limit (or at least one that's prolly like over 20MB)
- Preferrably offers a MySQL database or two

Or if anyone's willing to host me with these standards, please lemme know. :D Thx.

My site at themarkster.net is currently set up at 000webhost.. but I'm trying to move out asap cause I just read a shitload of reviews saying it's a scam or something. But I wanna move out anyway cause the FTP/upload speed sucks.

Well you could try sites like HostGator.com or HostMonster.com. And just in case, I personally used FatCow.com. thumbsup.gif You could also try googling like "top 10 webhosts" or something. :P

Mm, I think you missed the "free" part, haha. Thanks though; I know there's not really a such thing as a good free host, which is why I just said "decent." XD

d'oh! Sorry, imo. Uhh....well I guess you could also try BraveHost.com but the only fault to that is that it doesn't have FTP, I believe. Also, I'm not sure if it also supports PHP either. You could always try Joseph's free hosting at WeFuze.com. I also recall some other hosts like So-Pink.org are good and a member here, Erin (theerinkal), gives free hosting on here site as well - Sugar-Blossom.info. Oh, and Kevin (synatribe) also has his site, TigerSpace.com, but I'm not sure if it's really "fully set up" right now. thumbsup.gif

He needs a host for the domain he already has.

I could let you use my website...cause i can add unlimited domains to one account witch has unlimited storage and bandwidth but im not sure i would wanna do that with a stranger....

I've used so-pink.org for awhile. They offer free domain hosting. It's actually good and they offer almost all of what you're asking for.

I'm hosted with CBD Hosting. The owner offers great hosting options, all of which you mentioned above. She's also really friendly and answered all of my questions almost right away.

I could host your site, but I'd be doing it through my host's resources, so it'd be about the same thing d:

Shoot me a PM and we can discuss what you need more in depth. I can host your website, you can use your domain and you will have full cPanel access.

We're not spamming. We're voicing our opinion. It may not be at the right place but we're still voicing our opinion.

My old host was hyperphp.com, but I've started hosting myself.

Also, afraid.org isn't too bad.

That is insane.... INSANE!!!! I don't see how they can afford to do it, unless they oversell, or in this case overgive away diskspace. They are using a not so cheap dedicated server provider as well. They also don't have to good of uptime, but for a free host you can't really complain.
