Greetings All,
Please take the time to read this and not just spam your services, I have been through most of the posts on this forum in all catagories and know what companies are available and read most of their TOS/FAQ if was available on their main url.
My name is John and I am a new webmaster looking for help in the area of hosting a website.
The current site I am working on http://www.freeandcheapstuff4u.com and is NOT complete because of a design change and the current host does not allow php on their free account. The new design I want to use http://www.nuke-evolution.com/index.php as it has all the features that I am looking for pre-built into it.
Needs from the host is:
Being Honest and Stable is top priority
Top Level Domain Hosting, don't need a subdomain.
Disk Space: 100mb minimum, nuke-evolution is approx. 50mb for the basic install without adding site content. (more space may be needed for forum database, as I said I am new at this and your help as hosting provider will be greatly appreciated in this matter)
Bandwidth: This is another area I am not totally sure about, have talked to another Freebie site webmaster and if he was upfront with his stats his site receives between 5000 and 7000 unique page views perday. How these views are counted not sure looked at a few webcounters and some have the option of making a unique visit 30 minutes to 24 hours from the time someone first came on the site.
The ability to send mass email to registered forum users in the form of a daily newsletter. I will NOT spam anyone, all emails will be to those that choose to receive this newsletter and can unsubscribe at anytime they choose.
The ability to use my own google adsense.
No Forced Forum Posting, I already plan on being active in forums just don't want the stipulation to post or site gets deleted, suspended etc.
What you get from me:
First you get my appreciation from a serious hard working, honest single dad of 3 sons.
Your banner and/or text links will be viewable on every content page just look at my current site and you can see I included link backs to the current host and they do not require it. All I ask in placeing your banner or text links is the abilty to add it into the sites overall design to make it fit and look good, not a forced ad at the top that throws the sites look off.
I am in this for the long haul and plan on keeping a kid safe, legal content filled site that is updated daily. As the site becomes more popular and starts to make money I will upgrade to a paid version of your host and leave it as is as far as banner and link backs.
Why don't I just get paid hosting ?
Well to be honest can't afford it at the moment. As much as I'd like to have 100% free control over my own domain I believe that we can come up with a plan that is beneficial to both.
Why don't I just search for another free webhost that has no restrictions?
Came across this forum the other day and like the idea of requesting a webhost in that a more personable relationship will be formed and not just another everydayuser@whateverhost
Am I looking to get rich off this venture?
No, but would like to make enough money to pay for my internet cable, future paid hosting bills and maybe help pay another bill or 2 around the house.
Thanks for your time in reading this, hope you haven't been to bored. Look forward to host offers if this seems to be an equitable proposal.
Have a great day.
-John
