I have a deal with Evenhosting to split the profits. I get free hosting, they get my help in developing, marketing, and the domain name. We both split the profits and gain more traffic through it.

There arent quite as many emails as I was hoping for on the list - considering the extent of my advertising. Any reason anyone is not signing up?

Hey everyone. Realize it's been awhile. I added a few new pages to the site, any thoughts on them?

well.....if one is given a feeling that the free hosting is gonna last....i think that could be the best selling point

I agree. There are a lot of free hosts out there that arent doing a very good job in the "we're going to last" department. How do I show this though? Which factors are most important?

1) I am dedicated to the project, and not likely to give up any time soon.

2) It is hosted by a host with numerous already established paying clients, that isn't likely to die anytime soon.

3) Good client support and process.

I cannot present as can provide free hosting good support of clients for me it is not clearly. We should be entrusted our business of the company by means of which we try to earn money, not reliable company can't help us in it.

So on mine the pair already to think of the business seriously
Any free hostings to you will not help

If I understand you correctly, you are saying that it is not clear I would provide good support for clients, and that that is something you need for entrusting your hosting to my site. I'm not sure how to show this, but I will provide full time support whenever possible.

In fact part of the process is that I, or eventually a member of my friendly and knowledgeable team, will review your site and provide you with helpful suggestions at every stage of the process. We will also be available to answer every email that comes into our site in a helpful matter.

Probably you will try to provide to clients good support. But as you can pay all the expenses??? And you assure that if something happens you are ready to be justified before clients???)
Also what clients from you will receive??? I do not think that they can earn on a free-of-charge hosting.

So far, in 3 years of being a webmaster, I have answered every single feedback I have recieved on my site, and made changes based on it. I wish I would get more feedback, because I want to build the best site, but in order to get feedback you have to have a good site.

I know during development feedback was very important for me and I can never talk to my host so I want to be different. I remember being ignored on my feedback to anyone, and it happens far to often. Not only that, but its to my advantage to help out my hosters. They will stay longer, and produce a better website.

Let me ask you this. Why do you think I will not provide good support? I want to get rid of any misconceptions.

I still did not meet a reliable and stable free hosting, and nobody can convince me of this that is better to address in a free hosting than paid hosting.

But if you so are self-assured that I wish you good luck.

Thanks for the input everyone. One of my friends (while he is now ) designed me a new layout for the site so it looks a lot better now. I also rephrased some of the content. Check it out now:

Keep the input coming! I appreciate it.

I wish you good luck and I hope that you can safely correct your business
Certainly each person has the opinion and I remain on the position that the paid hosting always is more reliable.
