Im sorry if this is off topic but it seems like the answer to every free hosting situation is clubhost
 
Okay guys and girls, :p :p :p

Lets ALL STOP POSTING. No more posts from ANY OF US. I am sure that will be very good for the forum and JAN and PEO would love that.


GREAT IDEA BABOLO








yes i am being sarcastic
 
So where the hell is clubhost gone? I got cleared for an account on Monday but the site has been down since.....
 
You can't stop people posting from clubhost since it's seemingly the easiest host to apply for and it suits everyone's need.
 
Mad4, though not free (unless you speak with mad4 on here), is nice and cheap and has the latest cpanel version. its really good, im going to buy a custom package pretty soon.

Not true! Clubhost is NOT the answer if ....
- You want to build a web site that is NOT in English

- You want to build a site for profit or commercial purpose

- You are located somewhere in Asia, Eastern Europe, or South America

- You want to play streaming audio or videos

- You want to host nude or pornographic material

- You want to have a "Top Sites" or participate in one at another site.

- You are dead set on "Cpanel" and don't want anything else
even if the alternatives might be better

- You want to build a site using Microsoft ASP.NET or have code
on your site that uses Microsoft Access databases

- You are a newbie who is incabable of using either FTP or Frontpage.

If you can say "YES" to any of the above then Clubhost FREE Hosting
is NOT the web hosting provider for you!

Point in fact is you are wrong ... Clubhost is NOT the answer to
EVERY hosting solution although we do meet the requirements of most.

Vanzan, we have absolutely no downtime whatsoever so either your
hosting account has been suspended for usage violations (OR) you
have been banned from the network.

If your site is "suspended", you will see a page at "AMZ Web Hosting"
that tells you that the web site is not found. In that case,
you will need to contact "support@clubhost.us" to find out why
your account was suspended.

If you were banned from the network, Clubhost FREE Hosting and
about 6,000,000 other web sites will totally cease to exist from
your perspective and appear to be totally down. If this is the
case, you will need to send me a PM here and I'll research
the reason why you were banned.

EDIT: Just to avoid confusion for anyone, the "6,000,00 other sites"
' mentioned above are only those sites which we host directly.
' We do not share ban information with any other company.

How can you ban a person from your whole network? Using their IP?
Yes, that is part of it ...

For more serious violations like hacking attempts, piracy, etc, we will
configure the routers at all our data centers to completely drop the
packets of the offending person's IP. Depending on the situation
and necessity, that may also be expanded to include either a range of IPs
or possibly even their entire ISP in the most serious cases.

For matters involving illegal activity, we will also routinely notify the
appropriate law enforcement authorities for the location where the
member resides.

Needless to say, if your interests in FREE hosting is "warez trading"
or otherwise similiar illegal activities, that would be another item to
add to the list in my previous post above.

Clubhost would not be a good choice if those are the sort
of things you are really into. You know who you are! ;)

Firsto of all this post is very pointless and two clubhost is very reliable and nice and you should stop complaining about them.
 
Your banning IPs from your so-called network of *6,000,000* sites is unethical and impossible.

Your server is at Interland and I highly doubt you have access to the Interland routers.

It is most definitely NOT unethical ... On the contrary, it's quite reasonable
because we are only acting within the bounds of our own network.

We naturally wouldn't want anyone that has caused problems on any
part of our network to visit any other part of our network. And as for
"impossible", I'm not totally sure what you have been smoking --

We most certainly can restrict IPs from the sites that we host which
would incidentally be the 6,000,000 that I referred to above. That is
of course not just the FREE sites but rather all the sites we host and control
from all our various company branches combined. Clubhost by itself
is currently roughly around 500 sites and is the smallest of all our branches.

Actually, it's quite easy! Any ban that is imposed by any of our operating
branches is automatically replicated to all our other data center operating
locations within 15 minutes.

Yes and no. At our Miami, Florida location (1 of 14), we share the same
data center facility with Interland along side a few other independant
networks also hosted in that same building. Each of our networks are
autonomous to each other and have little interraction beyond
the primary network backbone connections which we all share.

Thanks! I couldn't agree with you more! :)

However, I am always glad to answer any questions like those asked above ...

And other people using the same ISP or even from the same country will be affected.

Why ban asians from registering?
 
It is most definitely not unethical

By blocking IPs, I'm assuming you're talking about blocking entire ranges, saying that, if a hacker using say BellSouth Fast Access were to hack one of your sites, you'd be blocking a quarter of Florida from accessing and potentially making purchases on your clients sites inevitably resulting in a loss for your clients.

And as for "impossible", I'm not totally
sure what you are smoking

Buddy, if anyone is smoking anything, its most defiantly you.

Our internal routers all operate independant of any of theirs.

Why then don't you have your own netblock, surely, a provider hosting over 6,000,000 websites would at least have their own /24.

We don't even host close to a million websites and have several.

It is pretty clear your organization, ClubHost.us/AMZweb.com does not host even close to six million sites.

I too feel it's not right. You must let your client to decide whether or not to block someone from his website. Does your clients know about this??

Let me remind you that we are talking about network security here ...

In actual play, you have to be doing something really bad to get
yourself a level 5 ban and there are very few people that has actually
been imposed on but I can think of a few over the years. Trust me,
you don't want any of them visiting your site.

The standard penalties increase depending on the seriousness ...

Level 1 - Probably get a nasty letter
Level 2 - Site suspended till you talk to us
Level 3 - Site Deleted and Banned from the forums
Level 4 - Banned from anywhere at Clubhost
Level 5 - Banned from our entire network
Level 6 - You find yourself in jail
Level 7 - You are assassinated **JUST KIDDING**

Seriously though, it would be irresponsible for any large hosting network
to not have some sort of network security policy.

Wrong! We don't blindly block without thinking or without good reason.
We would never block anything that wide scale.

Actually we do! And most of our other data centers do operate off
of our own IP pools. Interland owns the Miami location and dictates as
part of the use of that location that we must use their IP pool. They
hold the same terms at our Atlanta location as well which is another
one that is a shared location.

If you want to be technical, it's more than that! I rounded down to 6 million
because it is easier to remember. We currently own 30 hosting companies,
2 ISPs, 1 computer warranty support firm, 3 marketing firms, and several
graphics design centers and are currently working on the closing deal to
purchase 3 additional hosting companies and will be gaining their
customers once that deal finishes closing.
