Hosting on a free webserver?
Hey guys, I was wondering if it's legal to host your own business website on a free server such as Geocities, Angelfire, etc. I would use the site for business and so people can contact me and buy my products over the internet. No adult things... I would be selling crafts. So like I said, I just want to know if it's legal and if it's done often. Thanks. |

Agree with will... most free websites offer a few megabytes of storage space, slow servers, usually no customer support, can't use your own domain name, bogged down with their advertisements, are not indexed by most search engines, and none of the features you need to make money.
What you need is Lots of storage space, super fast servers, real people to speak with in case of problems, all the features necessary to make big bucks. (your own cgi-bin for interactive features, autoresponders, form mail, secure server, etc.) Also depends on the products your selling and what kind of turnover you expect? |
