Ad-free hosting for SMALL site needed!

JedKent · 05:39 AM

Hello,

I'm looking for someone to host a small site of mine. I only need 100-200mb of space and around 2-3gb of bandwidth per month. I need PHP support, cPanel, a couple of email accounts... and that's about it.

Also, I'm looking for a host that won't force me to use their banners or post in their forum. I'm just hoping for some no-strings-attached hosting.
Though it may seem a bit much to ask, the amount of space and bandwidth I need is so minimal that I'm hoping someone has a bit to spare and can offer me something. If I were asking for anything more, I would understand the need for posting in a forum or running an ad/etc.

---

NOTE: I made a similar thread back in May and was given great hosting by Robert @ BlackCurrantHosting until now, but they are closing soon and I need a replacement.

Thanks.

We can offer you 50 MB's webspace and 1 GB bandwidth with no posting or ads. However, we can also offer our Advanced plan, with 150MB's webspace and 5GB's bandwidth, in exchange for 15 posts monthly at our community.

The first month, we are being very lenient, considering we just opened our community.

I'm able to set you up with an account including the space and bandwidth you need. I've been around for almost a year now and offer no BS hosting. Please take a look at http://klazwebhost.net and feel free to leave me an email at klazweb@gmail.com

Freesites:
You only offer 1gb of bw, and you don't allow me to post my own ads.
Won't work I'm afraid.

Ownage24x7:
Your first package doesn't offer enough space or bw.
Your second package does, but I will not have access to the internet very often after mid-February... so after I get the site online, I won't be around to update regularly or post 15 times in a forum each month.

KlazWeb:
Sounds good, but how come your forum is so empty if you've been around for so long? And do you have any examples of sites you currently host? I only saw one listed on your site.
Also, just a recommendation: you should list your hosting plans somewhere on your site! I don't see them anywhere.

Thanks very much for taking a look.

I think you may have misinterpreted our, "No Ads" posts in other forums. What we mean by, "No Ads" is that we will not place ads on your site. You are certainly free to monetize your site.

I understand that you need a bit more bandwidth and we are considering upping the bandwidth for all of our subscribers.

I would really like to have you as a customer. Please give us a try; I'm sure we will do a great job for you.

Well, your plan says:
"Forced Banner Ads: No"
...but underneath that, it says:
"Your Banner Ads: Not Allowed"

That sounds to me like I wouldn't be able to put up my own Google ads/etc.
Sorry if I've misinterpreted, but perhaps you should consider rewording things if that's not the case.

I appreciate your response and will indeed consider signing up; however, I am hoping to see a few other options first.

Thanks so much for pointing that out.

It was clear, and wrong.

I will have the error corrected and you are certainly welcome to put ads onto your site.

Also, we are considering upping the bandwidth and should be able to handle your needs.

I really appreciate your feedback!

Cheers,

My forum and website lacks content because I was attending a military academy for the past five months. And I simply have not been able to find a ton of people that need hosting. The competition is really something. As for hosting plans, they are pretty straight forward. I have a standard plan as well as custom packages. You can find my plans by following this link.

JedKent, we've made some changes, and now offer ad free, post free, hosting! We start everyone with 100 MB's webspace and 1 GB bandwidth, which can be upgraded, depending on usage and community activity.
