Does Free Webspace Exist?

[Paul Strohmeier]

I remember, about ~ 8 years ago, there where several free webservers which where more or less trustworthy. I have not made any website since then, and I am having trouble finding any free webservice which does not clutter my website with adds or have a 50% offline time.

Does anyone know of 'useful' free webspace? I do not need php, SQL, CGI or anything fancy. I can also probably keep my entire website under 100mb and dont expect too much bandwidth use.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

p.

I've hosted some websites using Dropbox and the public folder. Your
base URL will look like

dl.dropbox.com/u/<uid>/

but you can have HTML files there that link to other CSS or JS or
image files in the same location.

huh.

thats a pretty cool trick, actually.

will try that.

You can also do the same *very* cheaply with Amazon S3 by storing files as objects.  They dump logs too, so you can inspect your traffic.

Google's app engine doesn't have php but you can use python, java or
any dynamic language that compiles down to java byte-code.

Since you don't need php and such, I would say use google apps (which includes google sites), in big part because the whole setup is nice, docs, email, etc.

If you want a blog, Try wordpress.org.

Also I think Amazon and Microsoft still has free cloud space, not sure if can host sites, but worth a look.  MS was 20 gigs last I checked.

Angelfire is still around.  And net savvy hipsters may find that pleasantly ironic.

One tip I wanted to share, while not for websites, autocadws.com is free webstorage, any file types are allowed, and the registration is as minimal as possible.  And if so inclined, you can use it for browser/android/ipad based CAD.

If you have a high speed internet connection at home just set up a server. That's next to free. All you need is some junk computer to leave running.

sadly, I'm currently more or less nomadic. though that would be my preferred solution.

and: screw angelfire. I want geocities back.

(sort of wonder whether it makes sense sifting through the archives to try and see if my childhood websites are still online...)

anyway. thanks for all the pointers
