I plan to make a site where I'll post articles, tutorials
and e-pubs for download, but I know that some people
warn against using free web-hosting. Webhosts that
shut down your site once it draws a little traffic, those
sorts of things... (I know a person who said his account
with was shut down for the offence
of uploading phpbb to his account. And he didn't even install it.)
Basically I wanted to know if any providers of free
web-hosting could be recommended at all, or should I go
for a paid hosting plan once away? I expect traffic to grow
slowly but steadily, but if possible I want a free provider
that is fair and doesn't shut down my site for no reason,
until the site has so much traffic that signing up for a paid
service is inevitable.
Are webhosts that give you 100GB of b/w a month serious,
will they really give you this amount, or is it just a marketing trick?
Finally I wanted to ask a question about free domains.
I've signed up with co.cc because they offer a a couple
of free domains for a year. Does any of you know if you have
to pay to keep your domain afterwards?
