If you are not hosting huge Flash files or not providing downloads... then I can give you.
But, If you are really not hosting that much, and still require that much BW, then you must be easily getting a huge amount of visitors. And that means, you can easily turn those numbers to money. Then, I would suggest you to go for paid hosting. once you go for paid hosting, we wont care even if you put up a 50 mb file for download!

Well this my site now http://gamefaqsexploits.freehttp.com/ Im using 48% of my bandwidth(1gb) So I do need it and I don't want to make money of my site but I might get paid hosting in the future when I have more money. B)

Oh and do you force ads? I dont think I saw anything about it but I might of missed it.

I know exactly how you feel. I have been searching through various webhosts forever. I found one back in March that's only $4.95 a month, but they only let me have 1 MySQL db, and I would like more than that. I like your free hosting plans here, mainly because it is just that--free. Since I don't have a job right now, and therefore limited income, I don't like to spend more than I have to.

I was wondering about ads, too. Do you put those on sites? I actually found trap17 through an ad on my own site! B) So I don't know... I don't really have space for them with my layout....

Also, do you inspect and reject websites? Mine's not like a porn site or anything, I was just wondering if you do that at all. I don't have a lot of pics on the site, but I think the bw is getting somewhere around 500 MB a month... I guess I should start to try to make money from this thing Lol.

Ya so, anyway... Um... I guess I'll just think of something else to post. hehe later.

I looked through the forums a little more, and I've pretty much cleared up all my questions. I think I'ma try for the paid options though.

free host with that much bw?
if there was such a thing then there would be no paid ones.
My site gets about 500mb bw used a month and that was all my old server allowed so then my account half-died and i lost alot of people as they thought it was closed.
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :rolleyes:

gamefreaksl which hosting option are you using for your site right now? cant you just ask for an upgrade when you get enough posts for the 2 or 3 gig bandwidth hosting packages? i dont see how your site uses that much bandwidth, other than the flash games maybe, but are those stored on your site or do you just use embed tags and have the source as the place where you got the games?

I have been loooking for free hosting for so long, I was using one but it was horrible the bandwidth limit was crappy and around the first week of rvry month the website would be down, bandwidth used or something like that and they'd put a nasty ad insted of my website it was just horrible, the space limit was good thats the only reason i stayed there for a while, but well now i found trap! and i think im stayin here! <_<

I looked around for ages, trying to find a good free web host. Truth is, theres is no such thing....
Trap17 is close, but its not free free, it just doesn't require payment.
In the end, I just bought web hosting, with pretty much unlimited everything, and it only cost me £30... And I haven't changed hosts, paid hosting is quite cheap if you go to the right place, and its often very much worth it.
The thing is with free hosting is, theres always a catch. Some its adverts, some its no server side, some its very limited space or bandwidth, some it tries to sell you a paid product after a few months., In my opinion, its easier to go with cheap paid hosting.
Although, trap17 is brilliant, it is paid hosting!

Dear friend just continue with your quality posts and you can be hosted soon. Thats what I want to say. You are at the right place and just stop your search for  new places even I have searched for many and stuck here as it is the best place to be. And what they are providing is the best I think.

What you say is true, trap17 is the best free host I have ever found, but you do realize this guy in not active and hasn't posted in almost 4 years right?

Trap 17 rocks.. but for a new user, its a real maze.This is day 2 of my search for a good host. I got here using google. I will patiently get to understand how to find my way around.
My progress so far;
1.sign up with trap 17 user forum
2. sign up with billing support
3. Make "good" posts worth $0.99 cents (this is the same as 99 posts, right?
4. Qualify for a website
Looks like i'm too far from 99 posts and Its hard to tell what a good post really is...

well u don't need 99 posts to get 100 credits u need between 8-20 depends on how good they are. A good post is a long post, lots of characters, on the subject, and full of useful information. Trap17 seems like a good host I really like the option which allows you to buy a domain with mycents, that is cool. On the other side things got expensive, post wise cause some time ago you would get hosting for 30 credits and i have a feeling that i got those faster + the hosting options have changed i think cause then you had unlimited everything, like mysql databases, ftp accounts, email accounts etc.
