View 10 RepliesDoes anyone know of any shared hosting plans that don't have any MySQL limitations? Aplus.net and Powweb are trying to shut down my accounts because of this problem, and I can't afford dedicated hosting quite yet.
View 12 Replies View RelatedOne of my friends uses a popular shared hosting provider, and I was assisting him with a web site issue earlier.
I noticed the following warning in the host's control panel:
"[MySQL databases] may not be used for log evaluation operations, ad clicks, chat systems, banner rotations, or similar applications putting extreme loads on the database under any circumstances."
Is this common at other shared hosts?
Do you think if a company offered free web hosting and free domains people would snap them up like there is no tommorow?
Also does anyone one how much ICANN acredited registrars pay ICANN when they register a new domain?
any feedback would be great!
I am under the impression that VPS services do not limit CPU Usage.
I would like to be able to just have programs run to their full potential usage, is this impossible on a VPS?
Is there any point in having inode limitations?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWarning: I do not want to re-open discussion on some previous threads about the legality of inode limitations. If it gets to that, please feel free to close this thread.
Reading through some other posts about inodes made me look at my own VPS setups. I use XenSource 3.1 on a CentOS 5 Dom0, using LVM for VM storage. When I create a new virtual machine (CentOS5 or Ubuntu, etc) I format the root filesystem with ext3. I use all the defaults, including number of inodes. So for a 20 gigabyte filesystem, I get:
Code:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 20G 453M 19G 3% /
Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 2621440 13861 2607579 1% /
Would there be any advantage to limiting the number of inodes a VPS has? Sure, if you had 200,000 inodes instead of 2.6 million inodes, you would have more available space. But there doesn't seem to be a hard limitation on the disk drives I'm using (WD 250GB SATA using linux software raid 1). I assume I could set any amount of inodes to a filesystem?
What does everyone think about free hosting? Is there always a catch or are there really some good free hosting?

All the site is database driven so the host needs to have fast db connections.
The site will also have some audio/photos not bigger than 3/4mb.

I've made my first website and I'm trying to find web hosting that is free and that it will also allows me to transfer my files through ftp directly through an ftp server. (ftp.example.com)
I've tried using the one for freewebpage.org but it doesn't work.. I tried it using port 21, 22, and 80 in both frontpage and filezilla and they didn't work.. I guess it's the ftp server that isn't really working, or the information they provide is inaccurate.
I have been searching for free ASP.net hosts since last few months and I didnt have much success in it,
so far I have tried these sites none work ...
i have seen one website ad on internet, offering free web hosting for 1 year (500 mb) with the purchase of any domain name.
I would like to confirm. Is these types of Ads are original or they are offering a fake offer (hidden cost). Because as i know, the domain hosting cost is very high as compare to buy a domain...
I think this information can be useful for you. If you plan to get your website, here is one good free web hosting provider to choose - 000webhost.com
They provide hosting absolutely free, there is no catch. You get 250 MB of disk space and 100 GB bandwidth. They also have cPanel control panel which is amazing. Moreover, there is no any kind of advertising on your pages.
Here's a new free web host to check out:
[url]
5GB disk space
20GB monthly bandwidth
10 MySQL databases
PHP support
Perfect for sites that aren't bandwidth intensive. Anyway, you can't beat the price, particularly if you need to host lots of small sites. I'm currently using the service to host articles and link pages, and it's working out nicely.
some companies claim that they provide hosting services better than some paid ones for free and with no ads. Like 110MB Hosting
View 3 Replies View RelatedMe and a few friends decided to start a web site but we don't have a very large member base at the moment so we are on free forum hosting. I thought the next logical step would be to get some free or very inexpensive website hosting that offered a domain name. So I got gfboards.net from Godaddy.com and tried out their free hosting.
What is really bothering me is that their ad that they put on the top of every page apparently "interferes" with the registration images on PHPBB and SMF forums. I really don't know a lot about web hosts but this just sounds fishy to me. Should I switch web hosts?

I wanted to create a phpBB forum without having to pay so I found a website and got it hosted. You can find it HERE: [removed]
I wanted to add on a "Downloads" section but I don't believe this is possible... Does anyone know of another free website that lets you host a phpBB forum and a web page or two?
I'd like to hear recommendations to get free PHP hosting, the kind where you can create a subdomain in their host, instead of using a real full domain, you know like geocities.
(Note: I do pay for regular hosting these days, but this is for an experimental proyect)
I have just been told about this host, does anyone know anything about it? I can't see the catch but neither can I see how it's funded.
