See here for my dilemma, as some of you know about...
http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2982426/

Would it be worth my while getting a proper web host and domain name where I have to pay?

Yes. Go with GoDaddy, put up a small donation box...it's a small cost for server and URL, and people occasionally donate. Don't they...

No, they don't.

Also, I would not go with GoDaddy, but that's just me...

Anyway, Flyboy, what sort of bandwidth requirements do you have? Do you know how much traffic you got per month? I ask because I run a dedicated server, and you could put your site on my server, as long as the bandwidth usage is not too high.

Free, good bandwidth and storage I think would be ideal for your operation

AlphaOneSix - Thanks for the offer. My LB2 site is the only one with the proper stats tracking, but is also my most popular site. I get around 300-400 visitors per month usually, I can't remember if they are 'unique' visitors.

loosebruce - I've already checked out that site but what guarantees do I have that this host isn't going to just snuff it like my 'current' one did?

Your guarentees that it wont chuck it are the same as what you would get for a paid host.

But its up to you smile
