Best free web hosting?

[calmebob]

I'm starting a website and was wondering what my best bet is for free webhosting. I know there are a bunch of crap places like geocities and angerlfire but I remember stumbling across a site that provided free hosting with no ad banners and a bunch of storage space. Does anyone know of such a place? What is my best option?

[psychoticguyver]

good luck finding it, i found one w/ a 20 meg webspace but no .zip .exe or anything over 20 k at a time

the best ones are obviously pay for space which sucks

angelfire.com

If you want to make a decent webpage with no pop-ups or banner ads, you'll probably end up having to pay. If you don't really give a crap (like me), Geocities or Freeservers work OK.

That's true. Well I'll admit that I pay Freeservers $5.95 a month just to store certain files and link to images, so I get FTP usage there.

30mb, NO ads, and very fast

May be a tad slow some times but their service pretty much doesn't have any restrictions relating to file types/stuff.

i've not yet had a problem beyond external image linking with freewebs (http://www.freewebs.com). there's a tiny little bit of tracking code (check out my website) but other than that, it's ad-free.

is 60 bucks a year REALLY all that much?

$99/yr gets you 500mb space and unlimited bandwidt, pop3, etc.

If you like the idea of free CGI hosting/scripting as well (I know I do), try www.************* . They put a few banners on your pages, but the CGI hosting more than makes up for it.

[Bilbo Baggins]
