I am looking for a either an affordable or preferably
a free Web hosting service. I have found Hypermart but
was wondering if there are any others out there. Any
recommendations? Thanks for helping.

AffordableHost.com lives up to its name :) And the service is fantastic!

And if you sign up using
http://www.affordablehost.com/affiliates.php?ID=162
then I get commission! <winks!>

I currently use them for three websites that I write for. Nothing but good
things to say.

I second the recommendation for affordablehost.com. When I set up my
domain, there were several problems at my bank (namely, it looks like
the banking system over here isn't used to newfangled things like online
transactions), and the way they handled the resulting mess impressed me
to no end. Also, the service is speedy and I've detected maybe 5
*seconds* of downtime inside the last month.

Would it be fair to say that those 5 seconds are more than likely
related to your connection/route rather than the server?

Nope, I was talking to a friend on AIM and she alerted me of the problem
- while being on another continent. A few moments later it was up again
without any further problems.

affordablehost.com starts at $20 a year for both domain registration and
hosting. Can't be beat. I have three accounts with them.

Well if you dont care to get tech support replies too fast check out
www.gotoecom.com

They have a free webhosting account. I'v used them for two test domains for
the last couple of years and they are pretty good.

Its free so dont expect too much.

Bit expensive, IMO. But then I am one of Tina's servants.
