My search for a domain host didn't lead anywhere. Now i'am thinking of using mydomain.com to redirect to my website. So can you guys recommend a service with the foll?
1. >=20 MB ( is there any 50 MB site?)
2. FTP
3. CGI
4. SSI
5. AD FREE
6. Fast and reliable
i tried power search, but no luck there.

You're NOT going to find a FWP with 50 megs/CGI/addless. And if you do, it will most likely not stay in business. The closest FWP to that is hypermart, just place their image map on the bottom of your site.

Hypermart's TOS states that their ad should be place above the fold. Since there is no FWP with 50 MB space how about any FWP with 20 MB and ad free?

Sorry, but the only "reliable" and ad-free FWP I can think of is http://www.f2s.com/
It has always been fast and reliable for me, plus there's little chance it will die.

Lastactionhero was asking for free hosting. Not pay hosting. <SNIP> requires that you pay money.
<<MOD NOTE>>
Edited the host that likes to spam forums. Really, they obviously can't get customers so they have to resort to this which is sad, but ohhh well. Don't worry, I wouldn't let any of the memers of the forums I moderate at be ripped off by these people.

I'm thinking how many servers actually f2s.com had? I know most members don't even use say 5 meg of space. Now what happen to the space excess? Will they delete account thats not active? I think without them our choices are very very limited maybe none?

I was also thinking of going with F2S, but I have read on these forums that some of their servers are really slow. How do i find out what server i get when i sign-up? Which servers are the fastest?
I think i signed up for f2s some months back, but i don't remember the password now. Can i get it back anyway?

what about digitalrice, are they good. i don't mind being on an nt server as long as ikonboard workd there.
I know LeX and I disagree on this but that's because he is on a fast server with F2's.... :)
I had a horrible experience with F2's and most people who have recently joined have had the same problems because they have all been put on a SLOW and unstable server.(I think it's 33 and 32 for FTP) (you can tell which server you are on when you log in using a FTP program--look at your connection log) I could never log in to upload my files and the server was so incredibly slow, I couldn't take it any longer. I would give them a while to fix the problems before you try them.
But if you want my two cents worth......Go paid hosting. It's alot less of a hassle.
