I am looking for a web hosting site which is FREE and very FAST. I dont mind about space. I am happy with 500kb of space. I just want really fast speed. I want to display these pics from my site aswell so the server must be capable of doing that.

Thankyou

Not sure why you want that exact spec, but a good place to try is http://www.ukplus.f2s.com

Its 500kb of space with no ads, and their tech support is excellent because its only a small operation so you get "that personal touch"

Anyway, good luck

What is this? It seems like that site is reselling f2s... is that even allowed?

Yeah, I asked the guy and he said that they checked with f2s first before they started.

Its not reselling - its free ;)

It seems strange that they are allowed to do this... how many signups have they got already?

i doubt a lot, as i said its a small operation.

Its nothing illegal honest, many people asked the same in the f2s forum before they shut it down, chris said it would be fine.

There is one other f2s user that I know of doing the same thing, but on a bit of a larger scale, to be found at:

http://www.homehost.f2s.com/

(he paid $100 for a web hosting script)

So it seems like F2S is doing something like what Wigloo is doing...

Its not really f2s "doing" anything.

What it is, is that f2s used to have a nice friendly community forum until they shut it down.

One user posts "can I use my space to become a free webhost"

and Chris, top man at f2s says "yeah sure you can if you want"

F2S have a very "easy going" approach to running the company ;)

F2S in my opinion now, is a very respectable company.

Mine too, they're down to earth, you need that in the computer industry, you need to be dealing with real, decent people, and not huge faceless corporations :cool:

Personally I think its weird myself, but theres nothing wrong with it. If the UK+ people were SELLING the webspace, then I guess that f2s would have a problem with it, because UK+ would be profiting, but since UK+ dont even put banners on your page, theres no problem with it.
