NO SPAM! / NO PORN! / NO ADULT CONTENT! / NO IRC!

all accounts are manually activated, and will be setup within 24-48hrs.

some quick notes about our Free Hosting:

you MUST have a legitimate e-mail when you sign-up as all account info is sent to this, and is our means of contacting you!

it can be free (yahoo, hotmail, etc.)
but it has to be legitimate!

also, there is a 1 account PER PERSON limit!

if you have any questions, DO NOT use the Ticket Support System, as this is reserved for use by our Paid Customers.. any free hosting related tickets will be ignored!

all questions must be posted on our community messageboards:

hi, you need not "transfer" your domain to them. just change your domains nameservers and point it to them. that'll do it.

cheers.

UPDATE: 01/17/04

We're only going to accept 200 sign-up's for the time-being, and half of those are already taken.. so make sure and sign-up soon, so you don't miss out!

how long do we have the hosting for?

as we are just entering the free hosting segment, we needed to get an general idea of what to expect..

so once we reach our predetermined 200 accounts, we will monitor the server and then determine how we should proceed..

our goal is to continue to provide free hosting, well into the future.

I'm new to all this and have spent too much money setting up free hosting. My latest host doesn't support ssi and I was just shown that I need it. I noticed alot of your links are circular and I'm a little concerned. Despite the circular links your site is awesome and at this point I'm not afraid of paid hosting however, are you still offering free hosting? I saw a link for a refugee discount and I got admit, I got a little psyched..... it didn't take me anywhere......how ironic. Whats the refugee discount going to amount to?

my apologies about the site.. it is not purposely meant to be confusing.. alot of content is missing, that needs to be added.. we are adding new items daily.. and hope you bear with us..

we offer a 25% refugee special, you show us evidence of your past host and you'll recieve 25% off your first month with us.

as you may have noticed, there aren't many packages listed.. if you would contact our sales department (sales@icecell.net) and provide us with your requirements, we'd be happy to send you a quote for them.

we are currently not accepting new Free Hosting sign-up's, but may once more starting in February.. we met the number we had previously decided apon, and will see how things turn out.

seems i am LATE

*sighs*

give me! give me! give me! give me! :D jk

Now that we are in February does it still seem possible that you might be accepting new Free Hosting sign-up's.

I hate my host....

You might want to check out their forum here:

Might be a good place to bookmark to check back when they are offering again.

it amazes me that as soon as something good is offered up for everyone, so many people are ready to take advantage and ruin it for everyone else.

Oh well...
