View Full Version : good host...
Raven69 07-11-2001, 04:28 PM well i found a good host. 0catch.com. theses guys are great.
1. They host Your domain on there servers for FREE.
2. They start you out with 100-250 MB right away.
3.front page server extensions.
4. really fast servers.
5. and more
you can check there website www.0catch.com. The best thing is all this is for FREE. NO charge. unlike valuable host and stuff that charge starting 5 bucks a month. This is all FREE.the only thing you have to pay for is your domain. GoDaddy.com $9.00 for a domain a year. So basically your paying $9.00 a year for all this The only thing that sux about this is you dont get unlimited email address like valuablehost.com But u still get the advantage of all this for $9.00 a year instead of paying about $60.00 a year for hosting on valuablehost.com and hypermart.com. ;). By the way you guys did i mention im new to this forum? Hi all! By the way if anybody finds a webhost that is just like this only it comes with free email addresses Please tell me right away. just post a thread telling me.
see ya all later!
Colin 07-11-2001, 04:41 PM BANDWIDTH
It's not stated anywhere on their site now, is it?
Ericd 07-11-2001, 05:05 PM Actually, what's free is a subdomain with banners on the pages and no FP extensions. They don't seem to be hosting domain neither, their user board has broken pictures and seems to be dead (0 posts for a site that has 19,238 members accoring to them) and as Colin said, they don't talk about the bandwidth. But again, it's a free sub-domain hosting :)
Edit: Ok, i just saw they host domains, well if you try them, let us know how it's going :)
determinist 07-11-2001, 05:19 PM Basically this is just another free host with sub-domain hosting like port5.com maybe, domain hosting like hypermart.com maybe, hosting services/access like f2s.com maybe and offer some "give-away free web hosting parthership program like excelland.com (previously) maybe.. as for the bandwidth, free host don't usually specify any bandwidth..
btw, a little add on, nothing is ZERO catch, i think they add banners? correct me if i'm wrong.
thereismore 07-11-2001, 11:29 PM determinist is right.
Free 250 MB hosting. C'mon. Get real.
Besides, Raven69's post looks like a thinly veiled ad campaign.
JMHO....
JBIZ718 07-11-2001, 11:39 PM I mean how you can compare a free host to any of the real hosting is just well you can figure it out
Valuablehost is one of late commers and is providing some dam solid solutions at affordable prices...
There are many others, VO, Wizards, pwebtech, jaguarpc, tera-byte
And many others. All some dam solid companies...And also very affordable
Lets get it out in the open, with anything Free has limitations. You pay for what you get.
Welcome to the forum...and well welcome to the world of hosting as well,
Joe
cperciva 07-11-2001, 11:43 PM Well actually it's only 100MB, if you want 250MB you have to pay $6.95/month.
But I must say that it is rather suspicious that this guy's first 3 posts are all talking about how great this "0catch" is...
Raven69 07-12-2001, 12:45 AM im not advertising it..Im just telling you a good host when you wanna server to host on. also its still better than haveing to pay $6.00 a month for 50MB. So i think ill go with 0catch.com. but you guys are right. theres nothing with ZERO catch.
Jedito 07-12-2001, 01:31 AM So, they give away bandwidth and space in a good reliable server? just because they are good guy?
Damn! why I don't have a father generous like thit guys :rolleyes:
Edited:
Why Its Free
0Catch is a free service. We can offer our services for free because 0Catch is advertiser sponsored. This means that a banner advertisement will be placed on 0Catch web pages. We hope this will not intrude too much on your web page. For those of you wanting to use 0Catch without a banner advertisement we offer Pro Accounts. Pro Accounts start at $6.95 per month and will allow you to use our hosting service with no banner at all. In this manner, we hope to provide great service to all users of 0Catch. Whether you use the service for free (with banner advertisement), or use 0Catch Pro for a more professional look, 0Catch can't be beat!!
http://info.0catch.com/whyitsfree
Webdude 07-12-2001, 04:12 AM I just had a thought when I saw their site. Doesnt 19419 signups and an empty support forum seem a bit strange to you?
Also, banner ads dont pay the bills like they may think. However, maybe enough people will get their Pro Account (I feel sooo copied) that they will do well. Has a great design also.
SoftWareRevue 07-12-2001, 07:44 AM You sure you don't work for 0catch.com ??
I could have swore I was reading an advertisement :rolleyes:
Then I read again and thought you just have issues with valuablehost :rolleyes:
How can you campare the services of a "free" hosting company with that of a paid service as though they are the same?? :rolleyes:
you SURE you don't work for 0catch.com? :rolleyes:
:rolleyes:

edude 07-12-2001, 12:55 PM hmmm, at least we tell our potential clients how much bandwidth we offer them eh..? Also $9.00 a year? for 10mb bandwidth :D

davidb 07-12-2001, 01:03 PM I thought I would add someting on them. He is the past owner of a very big free hosting company and he sold it, he said he needed something to do so he started up another one.

edude 07-12-2001, 01:23 PM Hmm, http://www.0catch.com/cgi-bin/ubb/Ultimate.cgi
Definetly seems like a new startup, raven please dont lie to us anymore, i really think your the owner.
BTW i would reccomend you to check your ubb setup:
Please check: Does directory Forum1 exist?
Create it if necessary and make sure it is writeable by UBB
There must be a matching Forum directory for every forum number listed in your forums settings.
Here is the error: No such file or directory
Also did you forget to upload your images?
haha...
:D

That was French?? :rolleyes:
hmm. . . .Always wanted to learn that language...
:cool:
:D
creepcolony 07-12-2001, 05:47 PM i have a personal small site (domain name) hosted with 0catch. they are pretty good. you can choose whether to have pop up or banner. i have no complaints (but i never update that site or check on it anyways :stickout ). their forum got fudged for some reason. it was alive before, and pretty active, but i guess the whole ubb went kablooey or something
edude 07-12-2001, 05:51 PM Next time please do not bring up my company name with anything 0catch related, or i will have to take action :D

Yeh. . . .I coulda swore Raven69 was only out to discredit valuablehost when I read the first post:eek:
:D :D
davidb 07-12-2001, 11:17 PM I do not think this his him at all. I know him a little from another fourm, he would not advertise like this.
Raven69 07-12-2001, 11:22 PM thank you david...atleast someone is on my side of not bieng the owner of 0catch.com. And what forum do i know you from??:D
davidb 07-12-2001, 11:32 PM No, I know the 0catch owner on another forum.
thereismore 07-12-2001, 11:52 PM Ok, let's just clear it up then.
Who is the 0catch owner? (It's not obvious from the whois lookup on his domain name....)
And Raven69.....
Your first post set me off as well (see post #5 on this thread). At the very least, please be sensitive to the fact that we basically are all competitors here. Any self promotion (perceived or otherwise) will be met with massive negativity. The reasons for this should be obvious.
Part of me feels bad for you because you voiced your opinion and got attacked, but...
You need to understand that plenty of ****heads have deceitfully tried to promote their companys here, and everybody is very, very sensitive to that.
JMHO.
:)
davidb 07-13-2001, 12:04 AM Ok. the only reason why I did not say his name, was because he apperently did not put it in the records, his name it matt heaton
thereismore 07-13-2001, 12:17 AM Ok, thanks davidb.
That helps. And is there a company name?
Let's just clear this up. If Raven69 is not associated with 0catch, a bunch of us owe him an apology.
What's the company name and is it incorporated?
davidb 07-13-2001, 12:31 AM I do not know that much. This is what I know. The owner of 0catch uses all custom software(hes a good programmer). He sold his last hosting comany to about.com, I think he also sold his statistics site also. Now he has started up 0catch. I really do not know what their company name is. He is a really great guy, because I also do freewebhosting he gave out his scripts that set you up so you could easily host domains. Also in my opinion Im sure raven was right about the speed. I am sure that he has the money to setup a nice connection and nice servers.
Eagle 07-13-2001, 09:44 AM Guys guys guys
:D
Ok, well as much as I like to prove Raven69 is the owner, here are some outputs of my research...
NOTE: He might not be the owner, but he might still be a friend of whatever of the owner...
Raven69's location:
San Diego
64.169.252.26
adsl-64-169-252-26.dsl.sndg02.pacbell.net
"Location" owner domain 0catch.com:
Bellingham, WA
Owner of the IP:
Webmersion
252 N. Orem Blvd
Orem, UT 84057
US
Coordinator:
Heaton, Matt admin@webmersion.com
(801.765.9400) -
I also saw webmersion.com on 0catch's site several times... It's either a reseller/colocator or a mirror for webmersion (like a second name to make more profit...you know)
Just thought I'd share... Flaming an "innocent" guy aint nice now heh? :D
edude 07-13-2001, 09:49 AM No WE do not owe him any kind of apology, trying to put my company down comparing it to some 0catch, pathetic abolutely PATHETIC. He is a spammer for the owner of the campany or affiliated to him in some way!

Eagle 07-13-2001, 09:52 AM Oh sorry must have missed the post where he makes you look bad...let me look again...
And also, I am not saying you should apologize... And read my post... I clearly state that he might be a friend or whatever... Of course, I agree with you all that it looks rather stupid... But I just thought I'd post it....
Didn't want to start a flame...
As for him making you look like a fool, that's just plain rotten, owner of 0catch or not...
Let me go look for that post real quick...

Look at the first post....My impression was that of Hostxp.
Although it probably upset him more than it did me; I thought this thread started as an attack on valuablehost:eek:
Eagle 07-13-2001, 10:06 AM mm I saw that...but I did not see that Hostexp = valuablehost.....
sorry Hostexp !
Let's :flamethr:
LoL :D
j/k
Raven69 07-13-2001, 11:50 AM ok,
hostexp, i owe you an apology. I was NOT trying to make your company look bad! i was just comparing. to show that this is tottally free. Im not a friend of the owner. i live in cali he lives in washington. Again im REALLY sorry hostexp for
making your company look bad. all im doing is telling people that need a host and not have to pay money that0catch.com is the place and the best deal for that. Atleast in my opinion. Im really sorry. I feel really bad
:(
Eagle 07-13-2001, 11:52 AM Ah well, this is a nice gesture... :D
edude 07-13-2001, 02:27 PM Apologies accepted :D

davidb 07-13-2001, 10:06 PM I hate to sound rude, but now that raven said he was sorry, I think you owe him one back.
edude 07-13-2001, 10:19 PM For what :confused:
davidb 07-13-2001, 11:32 PM Hmm, http://www.0catch.com/cgi-bin/ubb/Ultimate.cgi
