Verizon Wireless.
>>54263613
How many TBs transfer will she give me for $20 a month?
>>54263637
Are you trolling?
digitalocean has worked for me
>>54263613
Look mom, I posted again
bump
does no one on /g/ have a website??? Do any of you even own computers
>>54263981
I have a Facebook group, does that count?
>>54263981
i asked this same question on here a week ago and got similar responses. most of /g/ are useless neets reinstalling ubuntu over and over again
>>54264020
Did you ever find a webhost you liked?
>>54264046
i'm likely going to selfhost
>>54263981
I have one but I'm not fucking posting it on /g/
Amazon for a static website,
Digital ocean otherwise
>>54264020
it is true. there is also a perpetual churn of undergraduate students here. the signal to noise ratio is really poor a lot of the time. anyways,
there are many options. I use a PaaS, openshift, because they give you shell access to a RHEL server and a free gig of storage per app on free tier. it's more than needs suiting. i put all of my assets (images, scripts etc) behind a Content Distribution Network for chaching and lazy DNS resolution. basically I've paid $0 dollars to host mine and and my clients sites. it's good. Digital Ocean is pretty cool as well, but I prefer to not spend money.

>Amazon for a static website,
don't listen to this fucko
>>54264133
if you have some dinky static site you could also just use github-pages as a free service
>>54263604
All-Inkl
Best webhoster in universe
>>54263604
I have a cheap, self-administered VPS with RamNode and a shared hosting on DreamHost (unlimited storage and bandwidth).
>>54264124
>openshift
just signed up, they wont let me run apache?
>>54264239
what? ssh into your server. if you chose one of the preconfigured options then the server will be whatever it's defaults are, but it can be changed to anything, apache included
>>54264292
like, for example, the PHP option is apache by default. if you used Ruby or some shit then it will be rack / webrick, etc etc
>>54263604
Github
Just use DO, use the github student pack hack to get free credit. I'm not sure if it still works though, I tested it years apart, even reported it, but they didn't give a shit.
>>54263657
digital ocean did something to piss me off, I cant remember what exactly.
I think they were one of the ones that canceled my servers and demanded unnecessary information, like a photo id and my ssn..
also they keep pushing this cloud bullshit
>>54263604
GoDaddy
(angry neckbeards incoming)
>>54264124
>openshift
what is this shit about gears?
is the free thing a vps or what the fuck is it?
>>54264124
Im happy i am not the only one that uses PaaS here. Openshift user here as well, although there was a time where I used AWS just because I setup a server for an ASP application.

godaddy is meme teir and their business practice is shady at best. They have no problem stealing from you.
>>54268718
>10 year domain hosting for 90 CAD
>"stealing"
If anyone's stealing, I'm stealing from them.
Pic related is you when you wrote your post.
>>54268738
how much did they pay you to post that?
is the reason you used them because they reserved your domain name the second you searched for it so that noone else could have you for a customer?
i use the botnet, https://cloud.google.com/compute/
>>54268748
No and no.
You're just mad that GoDaddy is in favour of SOPA, so you will actually have to pay for all the gay midget porn you have been torrenting.

Idiots like you just can't into homeservers.
>>54263604
It depends on what you need it for. Bluehost offers free shared SSL certificate so if you want to set up a secure transnational website it won't cost an arm and a leg to get it. If all you want is a basic landing page then you may aswell go for a free web hosting service.
Rackspace.
I use an AWS instance for ~$20 per month + free Cloudflare, 100% uptime for last few years aside from scheduled kernel updates/reboots.
>>54263981
I host my blog using github pages.
>webhost
>not running your website on site.
hell, i even maintain our website at work on site.
why would i pay to use someone else's server when i have my own?
>>54271017
so when kiddies ddos your shit, you can still browse dank memes
>>54271156
>implying i cant implement the same DDOS protection locally
>>54271233
Impossible without the participation of your service provider.
>>54271233
keep telling yourself that.
>>54268673
Been using them for the past 10 months and they never asked me for this kind of stuff. What were you doing that would get their attention?
>>54271259
why? i can block that kind of shit at the local gateway/firewall level.
I use Hostgator.
I got a pretty good introductory deal, will probably cancel the cheap year is over.
I use it just to host my portfolio and get my own professional email address.
>>54271315
>being that retarded
Seriously? Think about it for more than 3 seconds
Dropping them is fine, but your router can't see the offending packets until they have already killed your WAN link
>>54271305
Nothing yet. Paypal was legit, they got the money. I was only able to ssh in a couple times before they locked it down.
>>54271315
ok Im done, thats enough 4chan for tonight.

>>54271447
Ah. Actually I remember a freind from school signed up for the student bundle and they asked him for that kind of stuff. Did you as well or are you using your own money?
>>54263604
Heroku for some rails and python applications and wupavhosting for a shitty php site
>>54270000
Bluehost is best host.
Using DO because I'm a babby. Couldn't actually set up a DNS on my own (i was under the impression I could hand the request off to be solved by a well maintained server) so I could never have my domain name propagate. DO made it as easy as a fisher price toy.
I'm only a first year CS and its just a side project so maybe there's still hope for me?
>>54271156
>muh ebin haxxors
I've had my website up for around a month now and no one's done any DDOS to it yet. Most people, it turns out, aren't going to do something malicious if they don't get anything from it ("for the lulz" doesn't work when their internet is offline because you can't see their tears).
>>54263981
I've considered making a website but i don't really have any reason to, i would hardly use it.
>>54263981
I'm pretty sure https://nonfree.pizza is from /g/
