New Web Host
www.errorhost.com Me and 3 friends made it, basically, we are going for a great technical support. You guys can be as mean and vicious as you want while commenting on the site :)
Its a work in progress, the current projects we are working on are, an affiliate system, ticket system, and a basic control panel.
and if yous manage to find any exploits, could you PM them to me and tell me how to fix them.
Many Thnx in advance
so umm, what's the unique selling (nvm, it's free) point of this service, what will make people use your service instead of awardspace or something like that? They will be putting their trust in a webhost they have never heard of. And you say that your unique factor will be that you offer great technical support, then say that! In big letters! Tell them you're good at security and stuff! lol. good luck though.
basically, we are aiming for a good customer service, cause we haven't found a single host that has good CS, and hoping they blog good about us, we get more users and such. Then when we establish a good user base, we are going to release paid hosting, that about sums it up…. The source code we plan to clean out once we are finished.
@spyware: what do you mean by: Using rewrite rules in order to activate the .erh extension is very dumb.

umm, how many people actually read blogs, and how many people then actually follow up on interesting blog entries? :P
maybe try targeting people like us, that would value technically minded webhosts, and advertise your services on sites like this.

yeah, but I mean, like, directly target us, people from hbh, dmz, atb, zi, eg, etc. Maybe even mention sites like that on your site, it will make everyone feel like they're part of something big sort of :P
and there is a huge demand on sites like this for good, free, technical, hosting, since most of us are all playing around with web developing and php and would like somewhere cooler than awardspace to have our stuff.

geez, good luck dude. I could never have a webhosting company with my own crappy server, it's too much responsibility if your server fucks up, or someone uploads illegal content, and so on.
Posting an update, we are moving to a new host, and im not sure how easy of a transaction this is going to be, so if you did make an account, you might want to back files up and stuff, although i doubt anyone has actual files though…
I've also been seeing an increasing amount of grammar and spelling errors. If you see any, could you pm them to me, giving Affiliate points for reports of errors on the site.
