New Host-100mb space, "unlim. transfer", etc.

[Matt8]

I did a forum search and didn't find anything about this host mentioned before. It looks somewhat nice.

www.biz.ly
-100mb Hosting
-Banner Ads
-"Unlimated Transfer"
-Only allows these file types: .html, .htm, .txt, .doc, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, .bmp, .art, .mid, .midi, .wps, .js, and .swf
-Browser Uploads

Says free domain but i am guessing they mean subdomain? ?
Looks kinda fast, may be good for new users who don't need scripting or .zip file types.

They're calling *.biz.ly a domain name. Kind of like uni.cc

No, i don't think it is since muttle co-brands usually have the muttle code (signup code) and this one doesn't say muttle.com or "muttle" in the whole page, unlike muttle co-brands. They also offer free url forwarding with no ads.

Hmm...good work!

 

[we647]

nothing wrong with muttle overall just that i just thought thru the wording it was

 

[Cyber-Scripter]

Good host, but they dont provide scripting like php...

 

[Matt8]

Whoops. Guess i missed it! Nothing wrong w/muttle. They offer good hosting!

Good host, but they dont provide scripting like php...

Not everyone needs scripting! I prefer a well-built webpage than a phpNUKE site. They just are getting old. Too many people consider php/mysql "cool" And i am not saying it is not good, but the same old phpNUKE type sites can get old.

Do I need to remind everyone that unlimited transfer/bandwidth does not exist. Please refer to http://www.unlimband.com for more information.
Free hosting is a great service (hell I offer some free accounts too) but free hosting does not come free for the host. That's why a text link or banner or popup is often required. It's just that money has to be made in a way or another (the host need money to keep offering free hosting).
So be aware of those "unlimited transfer" offers that are just big scams (if you check the tos you'll find a tiny detail that will allow them to limit the bandwidth anyway).
Regards,

Yes, the majority of us know that. Note the quotes in the subject of the thread.
