Free Hosting

[Flame]

Not to advertise, but I want to let everyone know, becuase finding a good free host is hard that I run www.mbhosting.com , which you may find easier than others.

If I may comment:
This is the best free hosting service out there!
Its seemingly UNLIMITED!
There's so much you can do!
PHP, MYSQL, Perl, and MUCH more!
Even GREAT FTP Access!
DONT GET ESMART SOLUTIONS!

(PST! Hey Flame, want to give me more MYSQL databases?)

Umm, well... You may want to wait for a short amount of time before trying to get on...

BTW: Its no "FREE SITE BUILDER INCLUDED!!!" Deal, you need to make your own pages and upload them Via FTP.

Its a great service.
Everything is handled by hand. No computer automated stuff. (Not yet at least)

Yo flame, how do you sign up with a  hosting package??

[Flame]

First register at www.mbhosting.com/forum and then go to the Hosting Requests section. read all the sticky topics. They will guide you through the process.

tried to get on this mb but very slow,.. and I keep getting 'The page cannot be displayed'
is this a new site,.. tried to post, in web-design.. but nothing changed on my screen?

Yes, I also found it to be very slow.  Took a few minutes for the home page to fully load.  I'm not sure it's fully loaded yet.  In the upper portion of the page, from right to left, I see Contact Us, Support, and TOS.  There appear to be two more buttons to the left of TOS, but they simply display with empty box in the middle of the button.  Yet, they are hyperlinks, as indicated when I hover my mouse over them.

Edit: the two missing labels finally appeared; they are About Us, and Hosting.

What's the catch with this free web hosting?  Is it ad-supported?  If someone wants to publish mysite.com, using your hosting service, is the URL to their site www.mysite.com, or is it somthing like http://www.mbhosting.com/mysite.com?  

I'm guessing you're a reseller.  In other words, you're paying for server space under a plan where you could parcel out smaller portions of that total space.  So, how can you do this for free?

Since all plans are free, what incentive is there for someone applying to not just indiscriminately choose a higher plan than what they actually need, thereby consuming more server disk space than necessary?

[Talisman]

was wondering about that too Soy,.. maybe the url will be something like http://mysite.mbhosting.com/
but I think you may not getthe www. !! maybe I'm wrong there.

Now how do I get a background sound on my web-page,.. one that will be able to be turned on/off.. I'm using front page.
                   thank you

Try the www.mbhosting.com another time. Occasionally, it does go down... but its usually for a good cause, like updating cPanel or other software.

There is no such thing as a free full domain. On Mbhosting, it would be www.mysite.mbhosting.com. If flame has his topic response emails, he should be here soon. But ComputerHopes SendMail might still be processing for some.

Ummm .. thanks f that.. why do we put ourselves through all this.. hehee
