Kris Report post Posted December 31, 2005 Oreo I don't know maybe Lufty will know You can get free webspace from just about anywhere these days. Just stick 'free webspace' into google. You'll get loads of hits. If you want to pay for our webspace and domain hosting then try Easily, Fasthosts or 1&1 but there are thousands out there.

TuX Report post Posted January 1, 2006 I think this is the best place to start for finding a decent webhost: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/ A lot of hosts have representitives on there to answer questions,and there are hundreds of people online at any one time,giving reviews,opinions,looking for help etc. It is a way of finding out what host to choose,what host not to chose.. Entering a hosts' name into the search engine should give up lists of review threads about them,but people will also advise on hosts to choose if not sure and make a thread with requirements and budget. It's only for paid hosting,but it is worth the money getting a paid host (if going to use it to it's full potential) as free hosting is often unreliable and usually have adverts or pop ups on them,plus the data transfer/bandwith allowed is very low,they would delete the account if it went over the allocated bandwith. I recommend US hosting as it's cheaper,UK hosting is usually more expensive and less of a deal. I was with Valuehost for 4 years until last month (would have changed had I not been overwhelmed in the process of moving hosts),the less I say about their unreliability the better.
