    Wink looking for your average webhost.... :)

    i'm looking for a webhost that has the following:
    • FTP access
    • NO ads
    • should be fast enough
    • as much space as possible
    • lots of bandwidth allowed
    • and a MySQL database (if not possible though, then dont need it)

    an English host would be way better

    Your average host? Anything asking for free and no-ads is already asking too much.

    Host.sk is very slow and Kilio.com is the worst host ever.

    Yeah, an average host will definitely have ads!
    In all that we are losing
    Aren't we just confusing

    Ask for something a little more substantial - a host with ads down the bottom, or one pop-up every 24 hours, or something. Your chances of actually finding a host with these options is a lot greater than finding one with no ads whatsoever, and hosts with ads are usually more reliable; and last longer.

    I don't understand why you need MySQL without PHP support. You don't commonly use one without the other.

    Try Topcities:

    150 MB
    1 GB transfer (enough for most webpages)
    Banner ad OR pop-up
    Very fast
    FTP access
    English

    Or, if you don't mind a few pop-unders, try 9cy

    100 MB
    "Unlimited" transfer
    A few pop-unders in the beginning
    Very fast
    No FTP access
    English
    PHP support
