Web Hosting (free) - 12/4/2002 23:16:55
I have asked this forum questions in the past with extreme success. I really appreciate the knowledge base represented by those involved.
Anyway, I' m looking for some FREE web hosting for FP webs. I have a group of students who created some pages and I want to provide them with some hosts that I can recommend.
What free FP hosting sites do you recommend?

Angel fire has free web hosting with front page extensions, I have a site there right now, I know there are more, There is another one, I' m not sure if the fp hosting is free, but it is Bravenet. You might have them check it out.

I maintain a free site at Geocities. They have some FP2000 extensions and you can publish your site. Don' t FTP once you start publishing as you will loose the extensions. Don' t expect any help from them if you have a problem. I have been using Geocities for a couple of years and so far it' s been pretty good. You will have to put up with ads.

Existing Geocites accounts that had FP enabled can continue to use FP, but those who setup new accounts no longer have FP functionality.
Does any one have experience with Tripod? From experience, can anyone tell me if Angel Fire or Tripod are better?
Thanks.

I can' t specifically say where the link is to set your preferences for your web, but I do know it is simply a check box to choose FP extensions.

Mosky,
At tripod simply log into your account and select My Account > Website Details then scroll down to " Preferences" and where it says Microsoft Frontpage click enable. When you try to open the site using frontpage the url will be http://frontpage.tripod.com/yoursitename/

Mosky,
Does Netfirms have a band width limit for their free service?

Thanks a lot. I will have my students setting up accounts for free hosting next week, so I be able to really compare the features over time. I will update the forum as to my own experiences at that time.

Tripod and Netfirm seem to be the two represented in this forum. Angel Fire wasn' t spoken for.

bnavis, several posts back towards the begining I had comented on Angel Fire.
I did have several problems loading to the site for some reason, then all of a sudden, I was in.
Also, I had worked on the site for several hours one day, and they wouldn' t let me in for a while, told me that I had went over my bandwidth! So, not sure how good it really is, however it is perfect for me right now. Just a family site.

Ive been using Tripod and Geocities. Tripod you get a subdomain name.
fp extensions works with tripod. I just use file upload at Geocities .
Tripod can be a little confusing navigating around.
Angelfire and tripod are part of the same group (lycos)
Tripod gives you 20 megs space 1 gig bandwidth

Hi all,
Netfirms.com is good and the naming is good yourname.netfirms.com.
It supports PHP ....etc except ASP.
Is there any free web hosting that supports ASP.
If there is not free web hosting that supports ASP, which paid one do you recommend.
