What's the best free webhost?
I'm finally getting a site together with all my pictures of projects and things, but I need to find a good host to keep it at. Personally I've always used tripod UK since they used to have a great transfer limit and allowed direct linking to images, but I think it's time for a new place.
The things I need most are: Reliability that the place will stay at the same address for a long time, Direct linking to images, A workable transfer limit, and normal FTP access. I don't care much about total space since I keep all my stuff small or scripting, I just want to serve up straight HTML with some small jpegs. |

I have mine through 1and1.com ... my site is peterandsoojin.com. you can go and see the speeds... I get FTP access... and I got it when they were just starting up here in US (they are from UK) so I got 3 yrs free!
![]() Even after my 3 yrs are up, I plan on keeping the service... in addition, they offer domain service for $6/yr!! Phenomenal, I say... |

I don't like their ads too much. Also, 30mb of space (with images hosted externally through my second photobucket account) is great for me. |

Luck of the draw. Some of their servers are faster than others. Also, it is surely faster than geocities for hosting pictures. And more user friendly too. |
