Don't you get free Web space with your Internet service?

 

I don't believe I do, ill av to look into that as I still live with parents and they pay for the service!

 

I think most, if not all ISP's supply web space. The only thing you might have to do is buy a domain name as the one your ISP give's you will be a bit long.

 

You could setup your own webserver on a normal PC. For windows i used to use WAMP it features PHP, MySQL, Apache.

 

If your doing your CIW, I'd recommend getting your own hosting. ISP hosting is often very basic, and is limited to html only. Grab a cheap account from someone like dreamhost and you will be good to go. This will allow you to learn the ins and outs of web hosting, mysql, email accounts etc, and all for like $10 a month.

I have alot of my sites hosted on my 1 dreamhost account, and whilst not the fastest hosting in the world, you do get pretty much unlimited space & bandwidth, and you get to play as much as you like.

Alternatively, set up Apache or IIS at home. If you have a static IP you can register a domian and point the A record at your IP. If your IP is dynamic, you could use one of the free Dynamic DNS companies for a free domain, and you install a small app to update the DNS everytime your issued a new IP :rock

 

Jod, is your kool badge site one of those that are hosted though that company? And have you ever used up your 500 gb in a month?

 

Well if he did use up 500GB banwidth in a month, those badges must be gold dust

 

Well I was wondering because one of the sites I'm souppose to build will have a data base and pictures like his of motorcycle and atv parts. And I know pics can add up.

 

Mitz its 500 GB storage and 5 TB monthly bandwidth with dreamhost, also after looking at there site they increase this each week by

2 GB for Storage

and

40 GB for Bandwidth
