K I'm looking for a webhost for my website (make it with flash so well need some things) that's: -Free -At least 15 MB space -at little as possible banner adds (preferably the ones that do not pop out) -Supports PHP -Supports MySQL (unless you know how to place a guestbook in a website done by flash ) Also I was hoping anyone would know a good/easy domain name... 'cause chances are free webhosters have crappy long names... I know of http://cjb.net... but that has a whole bunch of adds... so if anyone knows another one... that would be great |

cjb.net only has a little bar at the top. I would never switch to .tk again, they have the most annoying way of adding adds. For no popup adds, just get firefox. For hosting, I don't know... I just use angelfire (20mb /w some ads) but there probably are better ones out there. |

From what I remember, 100 Web Space was pretty good for being free, although the ads are pretty visible (banner). I really liked Shyper, but they dropped their free hosting due to abuse. For plain old HTML hosting I really like Sitesled which has no ads, but it looks like you need more features than it offers. If you're looking to pay for hosting, then A Small Orange has a really good reputation. Their smallest plan only costs $30/year too. Hopefully this helps you out. |

It's fast, free, and there's no ads. The only problem I've had is their FTP server is sometimes down, but there is also a web-based file manager where you can upload your files manually.
Just be sure to enter in correct information when you sign up, or else your applicaiton will be rejected. It took them about a day to accept mine. |
