KelmHosting will be offering free webspace soon (yes we are keeping paid):

Domain Hosting
PHP
1 MySql Database
CGI
50mb of space

1Gig Bandwith Limit

Is that good enough for you people?

No ads but all we ask is that we get some traffic to our forums. If you like our service then you can upgrade to our paid.

We're hoping that if people like the service they will upgrade to the paid hosting. BUT if they do we are thinking on giving them a $5 discount.

omigosh that sounds uber cool. Hey, I'd be glad to put banners on my forums since i get LOTS of traffic there, but pop ups will kill my site =/

I wish you luck on webhosting, Fox... forget about that argument we had, it didn't accomplish anything. You are the one with the webhost and I am not. I don't even run a webhost, so what do I know.

sorry YUPAPA, but it was just a little too slow

So I was right about Yupapa? :D J/K

And what are the nameservers?

there is a drawback:
your url is: http://www.kelmhosting.com/users/username

Remove the long address, it only screws up the thread. Sometimes last minute changes are made so it could be viewed as less money consuming for the people that are offering it. You can't just give away domains.

well then he should have said that they are not offering domain hosting but just a subdomain. or editted the post. i like the long thread.

Why would lunarpages.com loose alot of customers? DonŽt you think we have more than 30 accounts or something?

In the few weeks we have been online we have grown to 7000 accounts.. does our server seem slow now or something?

Watch out for more features when i get home to USA again, next week. How about a 10MB free SQL database for all upgraded accounts?

We WILL allow domain hosting.

We're ordering a extra IP soon and will be setting up our nameservers..
