I've been looking around Google and it's so hard to find a decent host that doesn't ban/delete your account for no reason, that has a nice bandwidth/space and doesn't flood your site with adverts.

Trap17 is amazing. All you need is to register on this forum, get hosting credits and off you go. In no time you get a great offer. I need my credits now, but I just want to say, everyone advertise on your sites. Give credit to Trap17, they don't ask for adverts, but it'd be nice if you could give them a little mention on a 'Credit's or 'Links' page.

Thank you!

Well I think it is a standard requirement to have trap17 link on your site. For me, I use an image saying 'Hosted by trap17' at the bottom where my credits go (Powered by Wordpress, Designed by Alex ... etc) Well having trap17 links on your site could advertise trap17 to have more users in a way and to keep the hosting going. After all, if i am not mistaken, trap17 earns revenues in the number of clicks/visits they get to the forum.

no its not required for you to keep a link on the site, they just ask that you do (i do because i want to spread the excelent word about trap17! but seriously, there is only one way to get trap17 on the top of googles search engline, and that is making good-quality posts in the forums so that way the google bot will list trap17 for EVERYTHING imaginable, so if someone searches for umm homework help, they come here and say hey! they were really helpful with my homework i might suggest this site to my friend, he's a web designer tired of paying for hosting. so, i do hope people actually do link back to trap17, and if they dont tsk tsk tsk...

as albus have mentioned earlier it is not mandatory that you need to have a link to trap17 in return for being hosted freely by trap17 , but you sure can show your appreciation to this unmatchable and great service by providnig a backlink to trap17 site , also trap17 dont make it compulsory for hosted members to make a certain number of posts at a certain time , it is all upto you when to post and what to post , you may have seen the recommendation to have atleast a minimum of ten credits but that does not mean you really have to ,it is purely for your benifit ,like if you cant get online or post due to any unexpected circumstances and if you do not have enough credit left on you for a few days your site will get suspended and that will surely affect your web traffic in a way you would not want , so in my opinion trap17 is the best place to get hosted free not to mention its paid services too which too are excellent and extremely competent

Yes trap17 is excellent. Been using it for a few months with no hassles and am loving it. The disk space and bandwith is more than enough, i hardly have used any of it each month but plan to. Thanks trap17 for providing this free hosting service.

freakin awesome trap17!!! i will definitely make a button for them and put it on my personal site...once i get hosted At first I tried Geocities and all that Homestead crap but they all sucked big time. I googled for "free hosts that support php" and bam! this site came up. At first i thought it was some gimmick but i read on and viewed the forums and it looked very promising. keep up the work admins!

I haven't got an account yet. But if its as good as I think it is, I will have a large ad for it on my website.

time will show, as usual.

I agree, I'm definately adding a link back here so my fellow web/Forum masters can have it as good as I do:) I feel spoiled:)

Great idea. If I am approved, I will definitely add a spot for them.
