I don't remember if I got to this site because of you, but it looks pretty nice.
For now, I just registered and fav to "oh, look, now I need a simple website and I already have the solution" reason.

This answer your question subStrata?
I just wanted to know how this thing works, not that necessarily I will use it right now.

For those of you looking for Free Webhosting I'll give you something better:

...

For only 1 BTC / year

I say you better start your own thread, for paid hostings. This one for FREE ones, like in "I PAID FUCKING NOTHING, AT ALL!"

Good point, I was just trying to help those who get here and read that the 1frehosting service is a bad idea. I'll locate the info somewhere else.

No one said that the 1freehosting is bad, only the ones that didn't tried it yet.
It's more like I'm calling a person ugly, but I have never seen this person.

Actually, a lot of people that have tried it say that it is bad, and that they will force you to pay to get your files back or account unlocked.

If you use them, keep a back up of everything including your database if you don't want to have to end up paying them.

If you think you'll have to ask for support once or twice a year, there are cheaper alternatives that give free support.

Maybe this got overlooked in my first post in the thread.... http://freehosting1.net/reviews/1freehosting.com.aspx

They say that the way that they make money is give you free hosting, then charge you $5 for each tech support incident. They will lock your account because of a hack attempt and the only way to get your files or unlock it is to pay them $5 each time it happens. It's a scam. That's why there are better alternatives from places like amazon and google that don't have to do stuff like that to make a buck.

But we are talking about a Free Hosting, anyone trying to make a business with a Free Hosting is a dumbass.
This is for small sites with nothing important inside. If you need to unlock just make another site and put everything like the old site.

Who the hell can comfortably operate a site on only 100gb of bandwith?

I checked the uptime guarantee and they give 99.95% gurantee. That's 20 minutes in a month. Much better than 5 or more hours. Especially if you'll have people playing your games all day and all night.

"Downtime" on S3 does not manifest as an outright outage due to how they distribute the servers. It means that the sum of all servers currently being pointed toos downtime adds up to .05%. Once the network realizes a server is unresponsive it is removed from their load balancers and the downtime is remedied. A fresh server is booted up to replace it and added to the load balancer.

The net result is that if you hit the refresh button you are very unlikely to be sent to the malfunctioning server again. So 99.95% over the time your page will just load, the other .05% of the time you need to re-roll the dice by hitting refresh.

Much better than traditional static hosting where someone has to go fix the server that is supposed to be serving the file, even if said server had the same uptime.

EC2 offers multi-GPU instances too.

Ok back on topic. If your game is 100% static which is appears to be then s3 would provide free hosting for a year and super cheap(like 5 cents a month) after that. Very good uptime etc.

Downside is that you need a credit card and a phone number to sign up. VOIP phone numbers and pre-paid credit cards work though. This is important if you don't have a credit card or if you want to be anonymous.

We've dipped off topic now, but you do know that the OCL vanity generator is available right? A 5800 series radeon can generate faster than your 16 core super beast by itself. Check it out if you haven't already, just needs standard ocl driver's.

Amazon web services are amazing. And now that they have control panels the barrier to entry is much lower. It can of course all be controlled via APIs.

I use it for small projects. Or when I need a big vanity address I can call up a 16 core 64 bit super beast for a few dollars an hour. Now if only they allowed bitcoin(hint, you could offer a passthrough and make a lot of coin)...

I haven't looked at AWS in a while, but they've updated it.

https://aws.amazon.com/free/

They have a db service now, you can get a micro instance in MySQL, Oracle, or SQL express edition with 20 gb of db storage space. Linux or windows Micro instance, 30 gb elastic block storage and 5 gb of simple storage. Plus 15 GB of data transfer for it all.

Toss on PHP and a free control panel like zpnael or open panel and you're set.

and check out their uptime, Uptime: 99.385 % That's 5 hours of down time a month. Amazon will get you much better than that. In October they were up only 97%

Listen to J-Norm, there are so many better options. Amazon, Google's Appspot, for DB backend you can use https://mongolab.com/home and get a half gig free and it's replicated.

Like how you stuffed your affiliate link in there too.

If your game is entirely javascript and everything served is just a static file look and Amazon's S3(simple storage solution). It will even give you a free bitcointurtle.s3.amazonaws.com domain to host your stuff, or you can set up your own domain if you have one.

Serving a small static page with low usage would literally cost less than 5 cents a month. S3 offers SUPER uptime(your data is always stored and available from 3 or more contenents/regions auto failover 99.9999+ uptime etc) and high performance with a complete pay-per use pricing system and no minimums. Static content only, you control things like root document and http headers etc.

If you need to have a server running your own code then look at Amazon's elastic computer cloud. They rent computers by the hour.
