Mike90014 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2008 Well i was a free host member for the last 12 weeks and they have good uptime but .....your not allowed to host any kind of Movie / pc app download service or have vbulletin installed overall there a good host band width = 100gb which is alright but customer service is rubbish and they do site inspections every two weeks which i think is wrong they close your site for 24 hrs with no warning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Variablez 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2008 000Webhost really sucked when I used it! It used to be my previous host, a while ago, it had poor service, slow uploading time, and very poor customer service. It was almost like it was an old site not ran by anybody! They usually put adverts on and the admin would check your site like 3 hours after you made it to make sure its safe. If it isnt, they shut it with out warning and dont listen to reason. They also do web inspections every couple weeks, mentioned earlier, this isnt good either, they stop your site and try peeking into it! Who knows what you might have on it thats private!

Evolix 1 Report post Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) 000webhost is the baddest web hoster I've known, it's has been my host a very long time ago, maybe 3-4 months ago? I think they should update their services and everything.You guys just stay with Xisto - it's the best free host ever, especially with package 2.

onscreen 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2008 I have different experience with 000webhost. Though its upload is kind of unstable when it comes to uploading large contents like forum package or portal package but it have solid good uptime now compare to its previous standard which each new registered member will restart its servers.The reason they refuse vBulletin installation is due to the high rate of illegal copies installed in 000webhost. So far phpbb, SMF is the forum package that i tried and worked with 000webhost. And who would put up private files in a free / unsecured webhost? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cat5e 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2008 That was a host I found too, but I was never able to use it. I tried signing up twice. Once with a Gmail account and once with a Yahoo account, but I never got the confirmation email on either! So I couldn't activate my account! All the faq about this says to do it sign up again and check spam folder, but of course that doesn't work... So then I try to ask a question in their help section, type the whole thing up to submit the "ticket," and then it never shows up.... so I get now help... Complete waste of time. It sounded really nice but those were empty promises. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miladinoski 1 Report post Posted October 24, 2008 Yeah, I had the same problem as Cat5e! The confirmation mail which I requested on my GMail account never got into the inbox or the spam folder. They are just stupid and a very bad host.Ignore them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheDisturbedOne 1 Report post Posted October 24, 2008 The reason why they don't let you have vBulletin on it, is because they may think it is nulled. I do say though, that 000 is one of the worst hosts out there. They inspect your website all the time, and they give you almost no space. I also think that 000 is the host that they give you space and bandwidth for free, but you have to pay for MySQL databases. Not very nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
habboreprogrammed 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2008 I Use 000Webhost Now But The Maximum File Size For An Upload Is 5mb And I Want To Upload 20mb. They Also Dont Support Shoutcast Radio Stats And Really Need Them For My Website. And They Dont Give Me Any Support When I Asked Them A Question All They Said Was Upgrade To The Premium Account Which Is $5 A Month Then They'll Help Me. Then I Heard About This Hosting And I'm Going To Have A Go At It. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Inviso 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2008 (edited) 000webhost was the first hosting service I ever used. I knew nothing about hosting or how to go about building web sites. I will say that I had a lot of fun learning how to use cPanel. I guess the straw that broke the camels back for me with 000webhost were the pornographic ads that was pushed on my users. This probably could have been cured using a decent .htacess file. As far as their referral program goes. I think it is a scam. I never got anything from them. I'm looking foward to a good relationship with Xisto. Edited November 24, 2008 by Mr Inviso (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
