free web hosting
« on: August 07, 2007, 04:02:47 PM »
hi all,
since i have moved to att im looking for a free web hosting site because im tired of moving my web page from site to site. no banner ads, no email, and no control panel but with 50 megs or more of space and i use filezilla for my ftp. i also would like password protected files?
i know several people here have there own site and are more experienced at this than i am so im asking for advice and maybe a link or 2 for a free no bs web hosting site.
thank you,

Ghost,
There are a few around such as FreeHostingNow.com

A free hosting service that gives you a generous 10 gigs of disk space, as well as 10 gigs of bandwidth. Here, you can get a free subdomain (such as YourSite.freehostingnow.com). FreeHostingNow.com offers PHP, MySQL, FTP access, and other handy features, and places no ads on your site.

I use Dino

Diino provides you with a secure online storage solution. Forget the hassles of CDs, floppies and tape drives for your data storage. Diino automatically stores the important files and data you choose to our secure data centres.

Q: does it work
A: It does seem to for a few hours at least.

Just a couple quick thoughts --

You probably already know about and have visited FreedomList, a forum for the discussion of free/cheap ISPs and related topics?  But just in case, it's here:
http://www.freedomlist.com/forum/
(I'm thinking since ISPs often offer hosting as well, you might get a lead on what you're looking for, there)

Also, I'm assuming the MSN Groups/Yahoo type of "websites"/groups/communities are inappropriate for your needs?  Or like geocities, tripod, etc.?

Wish I could be more help.
Good luck with your search  :breakkie:

Freedom what?  :hysterical:  Seems as though I've been there a time or two. 

As I recall, Ghost posted a couple things there many years ago.
