There are MANY server providers out there that offers you a free webspace, but most of them want something back. In most cases, this is to show some advertising on every page of yours. That sucks, because the space they are getting is the space you should use for your ad`s. So that is a great loss of your income.

Most of the free server-providers don`t give you a top domain. It is something like this: http://www.member.xoom/something/something This is NOT something your visitors will remember. Shorter names are easier to remember, and everybody knows that almost all webpages starts with www and ends with .com So what should you do ? I would like to recommend my server provider, Icom.com Not because they are best or cheapest, but because my experience with them is good. You pay about 9$ per month, and you get

• 50 MB webspace
• Your very own domain name (www.yourname.com).
• 24 hr FTP-access
• 1 POP email account, with unlimited aliases
• Server Side Includes (SSI support)
• Your own CGI-directory

If you want your own domain name, remember that Network Solutions takes 75$ for your domain name (covers two years).

Now, if you dont want your own domain name, there are MANY providers to choose from on the net. I am from Norway, and I instant have the name on 5-10 providers that each gives me 50 MB space and a name to market. I am sure you also have this in your country. But there is one I would like to recommend: Terrashare.com They actually pay you to use them !!!

• You get a webname like i did: free2com.terrashare.com
• You get 50 MB space
• FREE, NO CHARGE !!!!
• you must display a banner for them, but that banner makes you money !!!
  • "You'll be compensated based on the number of hits your page receives. We initially expect to pay you at an industry-leading rate of approximately $.50 per 1,000 banner ad displays"
  • "Furthermore, the TerraShare New Member Referral Program offers all our members-not just those creating web pages-the opportunity to reap significant rewards and help the entire community succeed. . We'll pay you an 8% commission on the revenue generated by sites owned by people you directly refer. Then, we'll pay you another 4% commission for people your referrals refer up to another four levels. Yes, that's 8% + 4% + 4% + 4% + 4%. "
