admins//mods, you may delete my previous post in this forum

So, now when i realizze that i cant get unlimited, what is the best hosting solution you guys could suggest for me.

What i want to do is pay for hosting, and then offer it as free hosting.

So im looking for cheap hosting, that offers a lot of bandwidth, and space

what would you guys suggest??

Usually, reseller accounts have lots of space and transfer.

The problem with signing up for a paid account and offering hosting is that free hosting is a different beast. The first person who abuses the free account you give them will take down your entire free host, and with it all the money you paid, etc. You really need a server to put the necessary restrictions in place (anti-spam, warez, porn, etc.) to offer free hosting. Without this, your account will be active for such a short amount of time that it isn't even worth addressing your post.

You might want to look into co-branding as they've got things set up to offer free hosting.
