ARE YOU willing to host me?
look below

IF you can host me, I'm willing to put a word link ,button link or pdate---640x60 banner to your site(hoster's), or willing to make a deal. ALL I NEED is 100 megabytes for my site members area. Must be able to change or modify the htaccess manually, my self, when i need it. Does anyone have this? I will make a deal with you anyhow. IF you need any information, please PM me if interested, thanx in advance!

-----------------

Hey, does anybody here know where I can get a free host that supports .htaccess? I am currently interested in it. If anybody have ANY information, Can u please post it here? I prefer an 100mb account, either ads or banners or none at all...If you see or have anything thats below 100mbs, please post it here as I am considering it. Thanx in advance for helping me~! I need .htaccess only[, other things like cgi are not important. I tried searching the engines But not any i found( or I have bad keywords

) either allows or Doesnt say... I want to thank ghettocars for helping me with a similar issue, but what i found out is i needed more flexibility for my site..

Hi freepcgames,

You can try these hosts, all of which have .htaccess:

http://www.host.sk/ (only 50 MB)
http://www.clawz.com/
http://www.amzweb.net/ (you must post at their forums)

**freepcgames** · 10-19-2002, 01:09 AM

well, thanx, is there anyways that the host.sk one can be translated into english or that is it?
I think the clawz is a good one, the amzweb.com is a harder than normal one, IS this htaccess-able? I didnt see it listed, is there any info on this? IS There any hosts that support htaccess and gives you 100mbs? Thanx alot!

**freepcgames** · 10-19-2002, 02:40 AM

**conkermaniac** · 10-19-2002, 01:46 PM

Hi,

I've got some more .htaccess hosts for you!

www.tiscali.ch
Sign-up: http://access.tiscali.ch/acc-freeacess-index
Translator: http://babel.altavista.com (German)

www.netfirms.com

**freepcgames** · 10-19-2002, 05:13 PM

Just to let you know, the tiscali one you must be there internet access user. I translated it and it came out, the english and german are below....

in german
----------------
"Verbinden Sie sich jetzt mit Millionen von Menschen. Mit Tiscali funktioniert Ihr Internetzugang schon in wenigen Minuten. Zudem schenken wir Ihnen mit Free Access eine eigene private Homepage.
"
or as in english
--------
"Connect yourselves now with millions of humans. With Tiscali your InterNet acces already functions in few minutes. Besides we give you with Free ACCESS own private homepage.
"

**freepcgames** · 10-19-2002, 05:17 PM

but wait, i think i went to the wrong page, it should be at http://access.tiscali.ch/acc-privhp-index.htm if you want to sign up. Let me look at this one.

**freepcgames** · 10-19-2002, 05:21 PM

The tiscalli one you must be a customer of their internet access, and you must pay to get a webpage there. So that's not going to be one of my options. I will look at the second one.....

**freepcgames** · 10-19-2002, 05:36 PM

And netfirms doesnt show it supports htaccess. Thanx anyways, i will keep looking.

**ghettocars** · 10-19-2002, 06:00 PM

if you have any luck finding one PM me with the host you found

im interested too.

a while back i had found free hosts that support ASP and PHP, i dont know now.

tripod.co.uk supports PHP, i dont know about .htaccess though.

**freepcgames** · 10-19-2002, 07:23 PM

ok, i will post the results here once i find them

Netfirms does support .htaccess.

**freepcgames** · 10-20-2002, 12:05 AM

I found some more hosts that does allow htaccess, but it only has from 10mb to 50mbs..
try the ones below
------------------------------
Cool free pages (htaccess (non encrpypted passwords), 50megabytes(space))

located at:www.coolfreepcgames.com
or at http://coolfreepages.com/faq.html if you want to see the faq containing the htaccess info(scroll to the very bottom).
-------------------------------
FREE ProHosting(20megs(space) with htaccess)

located at: www.free.prohosting.com

An unofficial FAQ is available at
http://free.prohosting.com/~sampieri/freefaq
click on the "Guides" section, and on htaccess

That is all I have for now..
oh, and netfirms doesnt work for me because I dont have a company.....

**conkermaniac** · 10-20-2002, 12:36 AM

Hi,

This was a PM that I sent to freepcgames. He just wanted me to post it here for other people to see.

1. CoolFreePages is racist. They'll delete your site, without warning, for getting any traffic from Asia. They are one of the worst hosts out there!

2. Free.Prohosting.net is a pretty good host, but just a week ago, they offered 50 MB. Before that, they offered "unlimited" space. Now they are on a downhill slide and noone knows when they will stop.

3. You don't need a business to use Netfirms.

**freepcgames** · 01:00 AM

Well, thanx conker!!I just want to let everyone know, or people looking for info.

**freepcgames** · 10-20-2002, 12:43 AM

I found other sites also, below, please tell me if you know anything about the host.

I found two more hosts.
can you tell me what you know about these hosts?
Thanx!
--------------
VirtualAvenue: Protecting Files(htaccess with 50megs)
http://www.virtualave.net/t/developm...l/protectfiles

or go to their mainpage and see:www.virtualave.net
still dont have 100mbs

------------
or Psend

www.Psend.com
10 megabytes
1gig bandwidth
htaccess support
options available.

---------------

**freepcgames** · 10-20-2002, 01:08 AM

http://www.united.net.kg/]

is another one

please tell me if you know anything or nothing about these..thanx!In the end, i will put all the good and bad hosts on each list and post them on. So everybody knows...

**conkermaniac** · 10-20-2002, 09:13 AM

They are a Portland co-brand, which means they offer 15 MB and only 100 MB transfer. Forget about them; they're pretty much useless.

**ghettocars** · 10-20-2002, 11:35 AM

ok ok, ive missed just about half of this thread...

coolfreepages >>>> i had an account with them (they suck!) the seriously do. they would delete your site. it supports PHP4 and .htacess but they still suck.

netfirms >>>> ive heard of them, i actually like them a lot. pretty good host.

united.net.kg >>>> ill look into this one

virtualave.net >>>> ive heard of this one before too, ive heard good comments and bad ones. dont really know who to trust.

my suggestions are:

host yourself!
www.tripod.co.uk
www.netfirms.com

here is a search i found of hosting:
http://www.accesswebhost.com/free_hosting.htm

Another search of hosting:
http://www.webhostingratings.com/

hope that helps
