Post Free webhosting, no ads.
Ok for the last couple of days I have been looking for a new webhost.

Ideally I want at least 100MB space, FTP uploading, subdomain, NO ADS, and no filesize or filetype limits.
And I want it all for FREE!!

I know it is a lot to ask for but I have always been a bit of an optimist :laughing2:



If anyone knows where I could get something like this please let me know!!



I have found quite a number of places that look promising but I am still waiting for replies. I will post them here though, just in case it can help anyone else.
Note that these sites are not good if you are not a pro with HTML, or dont know how to upload with FTP
If this is you, try one of the more popular places like freewebs.


www.FRandT.com
100MB
No ads
FTP
good reviews
difficult sign up process, long waits

www.AnyxHost.com
150MB
No ads
FTP
great reviews
hard to get accepted

www.IllusionFxNet.com
250MB
No ads
FTP
VERY DIFFICULT to get accepted

www.SpiralPages.com
>150MB
No ads
FTP
hard to get accepted

www.MixCat.com
50MB limit

No ads
Automatic acceptance
500 file limit
200kb filesize limit


www.atspace.com
50MB limit
FTP access
No ads
Automatic acceptance
Slow upload speeds
Only one ftp connection allowed at a time

IllusionFxNet.com accepted me woohoo!!!

It looks very cool....
250MB space, unlimited bandwidth, CGI and PHP access, CPanel 9, FTP
I know paysites which dont give you this much!


the only catch is i had to write like a 1000 word essay in order to get accepted! :indifferent:
but its a small price to pay :smile:

Sorry to report that IllusionFxNet no longer offer a free plan

Read my last post!
In the link I gave, all the hosts listed there give FREE WEBSPACE with NO ADS.

I will give it again!
http://www.free-webhosts.com/search-web ... 0000001000
Now im not going to do ALL the work for you... you will have to check out this list and find something that fits your needs yourself.

In your topic you were asking for a free place with no ads, this topic is all about free places with no ads... sounds like a duplicate topic to me! ;) :roll:

OMG I can't believe it Mike! I got accepted by IllusionFXNet! WOOHOO! All I did was to type a 400word essay about my site... called XPDude - Inside Out - (no kidding)


:spin: Man, i'm so excited! look out for http://xpdude.illusionfxnet.com =D

Edit: I tried 2 times and only succeeded on the second. They said the first one was due to poor grammar -,-

Yup. dont say too much about what your site is about, or if you will use phpbb etc etc, just give a very detailed description of all the CONTENT on it. Write it in paragraphs, using structured english. You could also try giving a bit of history, and your plans for the future.

VERY Detailed! Mike has written a thousand words, i've typed 600 words. Make it so detailed that.. it's practically a blueprint for a "client". If you have a previous site, please post it there too, so they can see your standards.

Also, you can try and try again ONLY after your application is rejected (like my first try). Don't worry, after you get accepted, you've one of the best free hosting sites in the world!
