FREE HOSTING
go to the following links to find free hosting: http://www.hostee.net http://www.webhostingtalk.com/ http://get-what-you-give.com/ PAID HOSTING If you're looking into getting a domain, and paying for hosting, but you're not sure who to go with, or who is reliable, here's a list I've collected. Some of them I have been a customer under, and for those I'll provide my input. Feel free to provide new hosts in a reply. • Surpasshosting.com (Currently with them right now; Cheap, reliable.) • Xanthion.com (Was with them for about a year; Had problems with their old billing service, 2CO and would not get a reimbursement because of an error on their part, and had the problems monthly, so I left to go with surpass.) • Netrillium.net (I had a shared account there years ago; It was new then, so the support was fast, and the server speed was pretty quick--but again, that was around '02-'03ish.) • Resellerzoom.com • Ataraxy.net • E-starr.com • Hybridreseller.com • Xionhosting.net • Pathhost.net • myvaluehost.com If you want to find other hosts, I suggest visiting findmyhosting.com. You can supply specifics when searching (price per month, space, bandwidth, etc.) Also, if you want to register a domain name, some places to register at: • Godaddy.com (I use them to host all of my domain names; It's easier to keep track of.) • Dynonames.com • Cheap-domainnames.com |

Honestly guys, I hate using less popular sites because they are undependable. Help and support means nothing to me because I don't have problems. I choose to use hostmonster because it is actually ran by the same people that run bluehost. Not sure why they would make a second site, but they have great deals and the community is a little smaller then bluehost witch is nice to know. they have cpanel but i dont care about cpanel cause I just make a network location on my computer.

I am new to the entire web master scene and want to start a page as a celebrity fan page I want to know of any free hosting that will work for a few months or so to get me into the swing of things I have a ton of pics too I want to share... Please help me someone!! Do you care if they put advertisements on your site or no ads? Honestly guys, I hate using less popular sites because they are undependable. Help and support means nothing to me because I don't have problems. I choose to use hostmonster because it is actually ran by the same people that run bluehost. Not sure why they would make a second site, but they have great deals and the community is a little smaller then bluehost witch is nice to know. they have cpanel but i dont care about cpanel cause I just make a network location on my computer. In all honest, all cPanel does is make it easier to host. WHM is what runs in the background that the Administrators have access to. If you are hosting more than just one site, it's almost impossible to do it without something monitoring the sites and showing you information about your web services and other service related information such as current space usage and uptime information. If you have a co-located server in a datacenter, you couldn't run it without a control panel of some sort. Be it cPanel, Helm, Plesk, Direct Admin or any of the other ones, it's too much of a headache to attempt. I tried years ago. |

^ you still sharing the coupon for dreamhost? Yea, it's BHDS97 if I remember correctly. It gives you $97 off a yearly hosting plan for the first year, then the hosting is full price each year after that. So, $22.40 for the first year and $119.40 each year after that. |

heres another one : Microsoft Just to let people know, this service does work under WINE in Linux and Mac OS. Unfortunately, not many versions of Firefox are stable under WINE. |

also http://brohoster.com/ is pretty awesome, I'm getting a TS3 server hosted with them and I know people with web and game servers, all reporting near 100% uptime. I'll probably rent a VPS from them once they've got their shit all worked out.
