looking for a free hosting site

[vartemis]

I'm putting together a magic related site (will post a link when I think its good enough to show off) that will be rather small, and was wondering if anyone has any reccomendations on places that offer free webhosting.  I'm using geocities for the testing of it, but I hate that stupid add on the side.

Any reccomendations?

thanks

I´m using dhost.info

- 100MB Webspace
- 300GB Traffic
- FTP
- PHP + MySQL
- no ads!

It works well.

[vartemis]

that looks great.. but um

NOTICE: your site must be in a european language or it will be deleted!!!

that might be a problem.

I have no idea what they actually mean by "European Language" but I assume that includes English.

I have no idea what they actually mean by "European Language" but I assume that includes English.

Actually, the fact that it is called dhost (which seems likely to be short for deutsch host), combined with the fact that most of mainland Europe feels about the same about Britain as they do about us, suggest to me that if you post a website in English there, you can expect it to get wiped. My advice? Give it a shot. But, save a copy of your html somewhere...otherwise you may get a lot more practice typing HTML than you want.

Good luck,

EDIT: Huh. I stand corrected. I guess that they mean that they are not going to allow Asian language sites? I wonder if I could write a whole website in Latin, and then say that it is a European language...a dead European language, but a European language nevertheless. How about Turkish and Russian? Technically, they are partly in Europe. Do they count?

European Language = french, dutch, italian, german, spanish, english,...

Mine is in Spanish and English, I haven´t have any problems since I created it in 2000.

And yes, it´s a german site.

From the FAQ´s:

Which lannguages are allowed?
only european languages (english, german, french etc ...)
