When I get to grips with the Tyros I'd like to share some MP3 arrangements with you guys.
Does anyone know any good free website hosts
with a decent amount of space and FTP facilities, or does everyone pay up front for their own?

Ron,
I pay for mine. I had a free one over at Angelfire/Lycos...limited space, too many rules and they shut you down when they feel like it.

Mine's at www.homestead.com

Lycos is not bad, but they have cut the space in half from when I started. I will soon switch to a paid one.

I'm using Verisign, which owned by Newwork Solutions in Herndon, VA. The domain name cost me $35 a year, plus another $12 for linking to my website which 10 megs of space from my ISP is provided.

You may want to look into Value Web (1-800-346-1549. I understand they are fairly inexpensive and provide a huge amount of space for your site, plus lots of other features.

Cheers,

Gary

Ron,Are you a subscriber to Yahoo! groups?
If you are , you can then have your own "Briefcase" where you can upload up to 30MB.
I don't know how long this will last, but for me it's another place to load some MB's.
I have my own 'Briefcase' if you care to have a look.

I have mainly photos but also my first extremely amateur and shameless MP3. under Photos>music.

Hi, I've had 3 to 4 sites up in the past 5 years. I use http://abc-123.net. He's really good 12 bucks a month for 25mg's of space. plus no set up fee. also you can register your domain name for $40 for 2 years.

Best web host (In my opinion):
http://www.icestorm.com

they have several packages for different prices/sizes. I have the one with 600 MB storage for $24.95 a month. Yes, six hundred. This is why I have all the space to allow members of my yahoo group to put their mp3's.

I've moved my site -- http://psrtutorial.com -- to lunarpages and have been very happy with this provider. Initially, I had 15MB free from Prodigy. Lunar provides 300 MB for $7.95/month (if you purchase an annual contract.) I create my site pages locally (using NetObjects Fusion) and ftp the pages up to their server. They do not provide a lot of bells and whistles if you don't know how to create a web page, but they do offer a lot of useful utilites for those wishing to use them. I just launched a BBS for the site using the software provided and it is very impressive. If you check out the tutorial site link above, you'll find a link to lunarpages at the bottom of the home page. If you'd like to see their forum, check out http://psrtutorial.com/forum/

And there ad is right -- they do answer the phone! I recommend this group very highly.
