Wonka... the deal through alwayswebhosting sounds really good. I'm currently using hostinggroup.com as my webhosting service. They're really good (excellent up-time, technical support, etc.), but they only offer 6GB of bandwidth per month for about the same price as alwayswebhosting.

I am a little skeptical as to how they can offer 60GB of bandwidth a month for such a low price though. Will they, if I get an account through them, suddenly cancel my service if I use alot of bandwidth?

But I'm extremely intrigued about it. 60GB of bandwidth would be awesome! Any help on this would be great, as you seem to have a decent grasp as to what that company is all about.

Sevices that cancel for high bandwidth dont tell you how much you can use in their Terms and Conditions.

You pay for 60gig you get 60gig.

They can change it in the future... if they do you leave.

There. simple.

If you exceed the bandwidth limit, we have it on record that the head tech guy will personally start finding mirrors for you and go out of his way to help you out. Its a good company man.

I'm almost positive they wouldn't cancel your shit as long as you don't do anything like 120+ gigs a month. There very tolerant over there.

I believe http://lunarpages.com (the TRIAL version ALONE) gives you 50 MB FREE!! Oh. There are these also:

http://www.mangled.org/servers/
http://freehosts.i85.net/
http://www.web1000.com/

I use angelfire also, but when I registered they promised me 50 MB. My little meter says I've used 16.3 MB of 50 MB of free space. Strange. Really strange. I'm glad you asked this question because I had the same problem (I was making a video for my friends, not anime-just photos of us, and the first one went well, but the second one...it was 48 MB or something---haha!).

Nevermind. It looks like Lunarpages stopped supporting the trial version. How annoying.
