The thing is, Its a little out of date, and I think it could give just a little more info, so Im going to do my best to show an updated version of that.

Free web hosts:
http://www.webonce.com 50MB of Space
http://www.50megs.com 50MB of Space

Red = I have not used, I have no info on them besides what their site says.
Blue = I have used, I have used these so I have some info on them and how they work.

INFO:

http://www.50megs.com
- No HTML
- Banner Ads
- Poor Service

I truelly dont think this site should be used, but if you are just starting out with the cyber world, you should try it.

http://www.freewebs.com
- HTML / Easy Builder
- Banner Ads (Only on Easy Builder, not on HTML)
- Great Service
- Community Interaction

This is a great site if you are new to the cyber world or if your a vet. This site is widely used, I truelly think you should try it!

http://www.geocities.com
- Some HTML
- Great Easy Builder
- Ok Service
- Community Interaction
- Low Hosting Space

This site is great for new people as well, it allows you to update your site very easily, and can be made in minutes. The one bad thing is the low hosting space, and you must be a Yahoo member to make a site.

http://www.bravenet.com
- No HTML
- Poor Easy Builder (All sites look the same)
- Ok Service
- Banner Ads

This site is great for messages, but for it to be a clan site... I dont think it would work out to well... It offers a ton of space, but the thing is, you would never get a shot to fill that space.

Site making help

Do you want to learn what makes web go round? Do you want a site 100% made by you? Then you need HTML

There are many sites to learn about HTML but to start of I think you should use lessons... Yes I know your thinking... well... what are these lessons?
http://www.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/tut/lessons.html

A website to show you how to make a website.

This site goes very deep in to the way of HTML and will help you alot if you do it lesson by lesson and do your Home work.... yeah they give you a kind of home work.

I use www.forumer.com for forums. They offer free phpBB (I recommend this) hosting, free IPB (invision) hosting, free blog hosting, and have a support forum if you have questions.

It has always worked well for me and the boards I have made.

Thank you all for the support, and thank you Speed Demon for that forum hoster,

But I have to ask, do you have any info on that forum hoster? If so that be nice.

Add Awardspace.com (www.awardspace.com) to the hosts, it has 200mb diskspace.

And Joynic.com (http://www.joynic.com) to the sub-domain section. They're subdomains are uk.tt.

E.G.

http://yoursite.uk.tt

They have more like us.tt and that as well thought so it doesnt have to be uk.tt.

And yes it is free.

Buster

08-17-2006, 02:45 PM

Thank you Internal_Combustion for the 2 sites, both have been added.

Buster

i read some things on this thread i just didn't see what is the best suggestion for clan sites? and great thread this has to stay up!

Buster

08-27-2006, 06:10 PM

For the best..... hmmmmm, I really dont know, its really how you like to host...

Thanks for the support Ultimater

If you want the best then I think you’re going to have to pay, a lot of Clans use freewebs.com and free sites like that. However it gets a bit boring after a while, everyone has seen this.

If you really want to wow people, then I would pay for a domain that is going to be easily remembered by your Clan members. Like netjak.com or I use crusaderknights.co.uk. Then look for a website builder, you usually get one with your domain name. That’s how you would get a unique website, and one that visitors will bother to look round.

If anyone ever needs help with html or anything just PM me and I would be happy to help.

Front page updated:

I have added a "Site making help - Real People" topic to it.

This is where you can use Real People to help with HTML, or even make a site for you, ***AS A NOTE, IF THEY DO NOT STATE IF THEY WILL MAKE A SITE OR NOT, DO NOT ASK!***

PS) Thanks robin hoods for helping people.

And thank you all for the support.

Your just jealous if you ask me, and I do use html, java script and everything else under the sun. I have studied it at college and have been doing it for years.

So don't patronize me I know what I am doing.

Jealous? Checkout the AK site, and I do mean to offend you when I say our website is better than yours 10 fold. ;)

pshh, jealous of a site that has an obvious outside sites talking banner which butchers words. You wouldn't need a site guide if your site was planned out and well organized. ;)

Ok Hatchet its your own opinion, and I respect it. Im not gonna argue it any further, cause this isn't what the thread was made for.
