Sorry about the title, but every single free webhost I've tried has pretty much failed to be of any use. They start out strong....then some downtime happens...it's not much, like a minute or two...then this downtime increases to 3 days, then a week, then TWO WEEKS! I have a community who relies on my website to be there, yet the web hosts I end up getting prove to eventually suck.
So before you look at any of the other things I need, Please tell me that your hosting business is still going to be here in a year or two- that your actually dedicated to this business that you've started and your not going to let it go down the drain. I worked my butt off on my website, spent hours upon hours editing, adding to it, advertising it...next day, it isn't there anymore. So please, reliability is the most important thing to me right now, and I think I'll be more likely to choose a hosting service that has lasted for a few years in comparison to one that has lasted for a few weeks. Oh, and no constant downtimes please...I think I've had enough of that ^^;
Sorry about the rant ^^;
Now for the Details: My website is a fan community for the hit cartoon, The Teen Titans. I provide remote links to galleries that hold fanart, links to music videos people have made, graphics and avatars...anything you can possibly think of. NONE of it is saved to the website, as that'd take too much space.
The part of my site that takes up the most space is my forum. It only has around 135 members at the moment, but it's constantly active and a lot of people use it to look up other media on the Titans as well.
Also, I don't know how popular my website is, but I highly doubt that I can get 150-300 unique visitors daily. In spite of having it for maybe six months, the site is still pretty new. I just can't guarantee that amount.
My old host offered 150 MB and 15 GB bandwidth. I'd like something along these lines with mysql, control panel, a forum that I can just add on...and that's basically it. This is all I need.
I also already have a domain that I can use- titansforever.net if that is required.
I'll be willing to place banners on my site - NO popups, to post as long as it's one time or a certain number every few months (not like 50 a month >>, link to the host...and whatever else there is that I can do.
Please guys I'm really disappointed in this webhost of mine, and I think I'll probably have to start everything over after all of this. I hate disappointing my members, but this has been the 4th long downtime we've ever had, and I know I'm going to be losing their interest if I don't get this fixed >.<
