Post subject: The search for a webspace
I've had free webspace for awhile now, but I've wanted to get my own lately. Especially now that my current one has gone down and has stayed down for weeks and weeks.
<br />
Anyone know of a good one (that allows norwegian users)? The most plausible host atm looks to be <a class="post-url" href="http://www.godaddy.com" target="_blank">www.godaddy.com</a> , but there could be better options out there I haven't discovered : :|

Well, When i was looking for webspace, i found some for free at <a class="post-url" href="http://www.illfuckinghostit.com" target="_blank">http://www.illfuckinghostit.com</a> they do have free space there and a variety of pay packages. The site was somewhat unorthodox and cought my attention so i decited why not and hosted my stuff there. there hasn't been a problem and its been probably 7 months now.
<br />
<br />
good luck.

<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> if you want a free space I think that lycos is the best (you have to use only a pop-up killer) : ftp upload, php database etc. , I have a test site at lycos UK (I don't trust italians <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> )
<br />
<br />
I pay 50$ a year for 4 gb monthly badwidth and 200 Mb of disk space at <a class="post-url" href="http://www.ifroggy.com" target="_blank">www.ifroggy.com</a> (but if you go here <a class="post-url" href="http://www.phpbbhacks.com/hosting/" target="_blank">http://www.phpbbhacks.com/hosting/</a>
<br />
you can have a little discount <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> .
<br />
<br />
They accept italians so I don't see why not Norwegians <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

iFroggy and phpbbhacks seem to have identical offers and pricing, so iFroggy seems like the best choice atm.. but I also want a domain name..
<br />
Hmmm, perhaps use iFroggy for host, and goDaddy for domain name <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" />

Phpbbhacks has 1gb more of bandwidth for the same price <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> , anyway, you have to buy your domain name separately and they will use it for your site for free. For a cheap domain name you can try <a class="post-url" href="http://www.dot.tk" target="_blank">www.dot.tk</a>
<br />
if you don't need .com .org .net etc., I use the free redirection service (www.posetteforever.tk) but it has pop-ups. If you buy the domain name you can transfer it to your site (and no pop-ups)

P.S. Passing through phpbbhacks is only for the discount, the web space is offered by ifroggy in all cases.

I can't see that extra gb of bandwith anywhere, I think it's only in Tormento's mind : <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif" alt="" />
<br />
And since it runs through iFroggy, might as well get it from them.
<br />
<br />
I know about dot.tk, but I'd prefer a more common like .com or .org etc. so no .tk for me I believe <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_naughty.gif" alt="" />

Oh, sorry, I must remember you are a rich boy <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> , no .com(mon) for me <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_naughty.gif" alt="" />
<br />
<br />
Anyway, I use the standard plan, and if you compare the offers you can see an extra 1gb. It could be in my mind, but it's strange, I look at it more and more and it is still there <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

For the love of god, don't slap a rich-boy tag on me <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_boohoo.gif" alt="" />
<br />
You see an extra gig, I don't. I see 2, 4, 10, 15 and 25 gb on both. Maybe my browser is playing with me <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" />

you are right, it looks like I'm very tired... Time for bed... My eyes don't see all clear anymore <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_whistle.gif" alt="" /> ...
<br />
<br />
It's the best offer I found, the control panel is clear and have all the features I needed. They have also an excellent online service (they reply in minutes) for newbies like me. It's the server where posetteforever stays <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/heartbeat.gif" alt="" /> . They accept customers from everywhere, so you need only a credit card ready and hot...
<br />
<br />
(Anyway, if you find something better *aehm* please advice...)

Woo, I got webspace.
<br />
Now, just gotta figure out what the proper selections would be considering a domain name <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" />
