Interest in free website hosting

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Interest in free website hosting

Post by durand »

I've been kind of interested in getting a new domain and hosting several OS projects off of it as subdomains. I'll do the subdomain hosting for free and provide people with FTP access to their own sub root. The free FTP/www site will be restricted to OS projects only or system related (emulators, virualization, etc) projects.

domain.com with project1.domain.com, project2.domain.com, etc.

I won't use my own server, I'll get hosting from an actual provider. I think the subdomain route is better because those are usually free from the web hosts.

So, I don't know what the kind of interest would be like? I'm sure a lot of people wouldn't mind free webhosting but would they be happy with a subdomain off of my domain? But, hey, it's free...

But everyone seems to have their own websites anyway. Would it be a waste?

I could do this as is..Anyone what one? It can be a subdomain of any of the following:

demios.be
cjmovie.net
cjcorsi.be
smlink.be

Or if you want to set the DNS records to my servers I can let you use whatever. I've got a terabyte of bandwidth and around 20GB of space on my plan, and use less that 1% of it.

I can provide 100mb to each project probably, and a few GB of bandwidth (like 5 or 10).

I don?t need one, lemonos.sf.net is good ;), what I do need I help making my web site, I have absolutely no knowledge of html any one interested in web design??? ;D

p.s. smlink.be is a cool idea :)

p.p.s on smlink.be you say that that big link turns into:
http://smurl.be/?i=Ez6Zg.
shouldn't it be: http://smlink.be/?i=Ez6Zg. ???

I could probably help there... I can do PHP and MySQL (for database driven websites) and CSS, image design etc.

PM me or email me at [email protected] you're interested.
