Hiya guys... I'm looking for a FREE webhost with the following requirements:

AT LEAST 100MB webspace
NO LESS than 3GB bandwidth (I'd prefer more but that's the minimum)
MySQL Database
PHP support
FTP access
Preferably no ads... If there are: I'd rather a textlink or a banner AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE. But as stated - I'd rather no ads.


I don't really need an e-mail account to go with it.....



If anyone can find me one of these... especially with no ads, I shall be really greatful..

Thanks in advance!! :)

have tried it... they don't offer FTP and MySQL yet, and knowing them, as a free host they will take loody ages till they get together with it...


any others...?

I have made an account at byethost5.com
I've got the account with 100MB webspace and 500MB bandwidth....

Is this enough for a forum...? I think it's not, but I'll give it a try, but I'm still waiting for someone to turn up with a webhost that supplies what I originally asked for...... :)

It says 6 months....... does that mean that after 6 months I need to pay them up money......?

If not, then this is the best deal in town, and thanks very much!!

What I meant was that after being a member and having their webspace for 6 months, they shut down your website until you pay.... that's what I figured of that deal.

Although if it's a "for-life" deal it's amazing!!

you could jsut use it for now until you find something better.
if they shut u down after 6 months just find a new host

the sucky part of using a host with no ftp is......when and if you decide to move to another host, you essentially abandon your forum and all the files. without ftp, you have no way of taking your forum with you to the new host.

Well I can't use it.. sorry.....
