Adult Content Hosting


So a friend of mine is looking for a web host that will allow adult content. All of the content will be uploaded by them, not sure if that matters or not.

But anyone know of any host that allow adult content?

As long as you are not in violation of copywrite, then you should be fine on most of the hosts. I would just ask them before you buy to make sure, of course.

Most hosts will allow legal adult content to be hosted on their servers. To verify, contact their sales team. Make a list, and contact each host. This should also give you an idea of their response time.

Will you be using a script to upload the content? You might need FFmpeg, etc.

Its probably worth adding that some hosts may require you to prove you own the content, and its legal.

A good number of hosts, both shared and dedicated will be able to accommodate you though.

Most web host will allow this as long as you dont do anything to void the tos. and also if everything is legit and all legal they will allow you to do this.

Most USA and/or offshore hosts allow legal adult sites. But, rarely of them allow child porno.

It is a matter of morality. Child porn is a logical reason why you wouldn't allow someone to use your hosting services . Think only of the bad publicity you would have.

I'd recommend just reading the terms of service or ask the webhosting as well

Rarely? Do you know of one that does? If so, I think you need to pick up the phone and dial 9-1-1.
