Who think banner-less host or better than banner hosts. Just think carefully before posting.

Most of the time, the ones that offer the best features have the feature 'no-ads' included.

Bannerless hosts usually go down or soon put banners on your site.

When looking at bannerless hosts you just have to be a bit more careful in selecting a host. Banner hosts often go down also, especially these days, so it's not like that problem is unique to bannerless hosts, but it's more common. If it's a bannerless host which actually does have some sort of reasonable alternative scheme for making money (and preferably has been around for a while), then I far prefer bannerless hosts over ones with banners.

You gave too little options.. there should be ones that go "I prefer pop-ups" or "adframe's cooler" or "nothing beats F2S ( :rolleyes: )"... etc.

Banners are useless, they ain't worth ----, and they take up too much of your page space (as in what you see) IMO.

Any intelligent person who have an important website would choose a banner host over a bannerless host. But banner hosts are not very safe, Tripod had a crash a few months back and lsot a bunch of websites :). So be careful.
