We know that everyone hates Banner Adverts, Pop-ups, mad posting on forums... who would want to do that?
GalacNet is a free web hosting company but I personally hate it too, however if the hosting company does not make revenue to support his equipment, network and staff, how would it survive the long run??
Here is the catch :
You want reseller for free, you got free reseller and you offer web accounts with no ads what so ever. just a commercial account that is free.....
What you happen??
1) You will have tons of clients or people looking for free hosting and some commercial customers too
since they don't need to pay for anything.
2) Your population will start to grow
and I expect very very fast... now here is whats wrong...
Your host wil suddenly find that you generate no revenue for his company BUT your resource take up increases every single day.... 10GB/mth... 100GB/mth... 1TB/mth...
And soon you will get either a letter that your hsost is shutting down due to funding problems ( who would want to fund a company that generate traffic but no viewership? ) OR you maybe asked to pay for it or they stop your account totally.
This happended a lot of times from the feedback of some users that shifted over to our servers...
Commercial Resellers are always better.... but of course you have to pay.
If you want to know what I mean, sign up for a commercial reseller account, pay that $20 or $30 dollars every month and give off free webhosting with zero revenue generation....
My suggestion since you already got a Free Reseller account ( no please don't tell me who... ) help your hoster out a little. Help him generate funds, give him support and aid him in running the sites. He deserves no less
