Free webspace...
by Joseph Euan · 03/22/2006 (12:14 pm) · 7 comments
I've decided to put my web server to use and offer indie developers "free" web space for their game website.
At the moment I'm going to just going to give away 20 accounts and see how things go... if there's no problems, I'll give away another 20 and so on.
Specs:
50mb WebSpace
Unmetered 5Mbps bandwidth
cPanel 10 control panel
Fantastico script installer (allows you to easily install forums, shopping carts, CMS systems and a load more)
Unlimited email addresses
FTP Access
(Contact me for more specs)
All I ask for in return, is for a small "Hosted by" button be put on your webpage.
The only thing you need to supply is a domain name, which you can buy from any domain name company and forward to my server.
To apply, just email (email address is in my profile) me the following details
Your Name:
Company Name:
Domain name:
Username (max 8 letters):
Password:
As it's limited to 20 accounts, it's on a first come first serve basis and the accounts are going fast so hurry up!
Edit: The server is based a in data centre, I got it for my business "www.marinainternet.co.uk" so theres no need to worry about it being a home based server :)

You would need to buy your own domain name (about $6 iirc) from any domain name company.

Ben, no I mean about $6 for the domain name (the hosting is free)

And the domain fee is $6 per year, not per month (although, Joseph, correct me if I'm wrong).
Anyway, good work Joseph!

Your one of the first hosting services to offer unmetered bandwidth that I have heard of.
To bad I have no use for a website right now.
