File123.com is going after the “hey I just need some extra space to host a few files” business.

Backing up is hard to do – no wait, that was breaking up. Backing up is not that hard to do but for some reason we still do not like to take the time to do it. That is where cheap Online solutions come into play. One of those solutions out there for you right now is Allmydata.com.

All My Data Hosting Backup

Here is a little more information about the company and team from their about us web page.

Allmydata was created for all of us who have lost important information due to disk crashes, viruses or even a mere computer replacement. Allmydata was created for all of us who have given up on backing up our computers due to the cost and complexity of current backup solutions: external drives, tape drives and complicated online solutions.

Allmydata promises you “unlimited online storage and backup” but what is the price? All you have to pay is $4.99 a month. That’s a pretty good deal in my book. They also offer a Windows only desktop application to make your backing up a little easier to do as well. Overall it looks like a great way for anybody to keep their important files backed up just in case the worst might happen.

Free Hosting With a Twist

When it comes to hosting these days, you really have to pick up a more interesting business model if you want to succeed out there. For folks wanting to start a business – but might not have the capital to put up for advertising and marketing just yet – life can be tuff.

I got an e-mail the other day from Stanley, a Web Hosting Show listener and the guy in charge of All or Nothing hosting. He wanted me to pass the word along to all of you that he would be happy to host free clients, artists, designers, programmers, coders, who are in desperate need for hosting and end up stuck with craptastic free solutions.

What does All or Nothing provide that the crappy hosts might not? He promised e-mail, control panels, MySQL databases, PHP support, ect. Sounds like a good deal for free right? Well I have to ask the million dollar question after this point – where is the catch?

It is ad supported hosting. You live with them making a buck on your web pages – and you get free hosting that is better than your average free web host out there. Not too bad. Also if you can stay active in their forums then you might be able to ditch the ads all together. So that is a nice alternative to have as well.

So if your wallet is empty and you want to setup a new web site, give the folks at All or Nothing Hosting a call and be sure to let them know that it was the Web Hosting Show that sent you there.

When it comes to free hosting, OneDump hopes to have all of your bases covered. They deliver audio, text and image hosting for free.

The service, like many of the ones that came beore it, is very straight forward and simple to understand and use. A part of me would like to say they have an army of midgets in Singapore doing all the hard labor but they just would not be true.

So what are the rules of the OneDump service? You are permitted to upload upto 10 files at once, with each not exceeding 5 MB. It also supports these file formats:

jpg, jpeg, gif, png, bmp, tif, tiff, swf, txt, wmv, mp3, doc

OneDumpYou can use the service without feeling the need to register, but if you do sign up you can keep track of your uploads, view statistics of each file, add and edit captions to your uploaded data, create folders, and more. With the Quick Send feature you can also e-mail files into the service as well. This is a pretty neat addition that you do not see other free file hosts doing that often. As long as you follow the terms of service, they say there is no limit to the free files you can host here.

All in all, I would say they stack up with some of the best out there – they just need a good user base to get them going strong.

They have a lot to deliver, now they just need the audience to make all their hard work worth it.

Free Photo Hosting From Zoto

Nov/24 in All Posts, Free Hosting, Web Hosting Tutorials

Photo HostingNow when it comes to photo hosting, you may be friends with the Flickrs and PhotoBuckets of the world, but every so often it doesn’t hurt to look for alternatives. One alternative that I have been checking out recently is Zoto.com.

They want to be the place you take all your digital photos to.

Now why should they get that honor? Well storing a backup of all your photos Online is a smart thing to do. What if something happens to your computer? Where will all those photos of Uncle Fred riding the unicycle go?

They will be gone for good.

Past the backup aspect of all of this though, they also give you the standard tagging feature that you see everywhere else as well. You can also make nice looking galleries with the templates they provide you and they say that “photo blogging” is a breeze.

So, for the most part, you can see they are doing everything that everybody else is doing. Nothing really sets them apart – but if you are looking for an alternative, Zoto.com might be the place you want your photos to call home.

Nov/21 in All Posts, Free Hosting, Web Hosting Tutorials

Free WebsIt looks like more and more Web hosts are moving towards the new Web 2.0 look as far as Web site design goes.

Web publishing tools provider Freewebs.com announced last week it has completed a series of advancements in its application offerings.

The move continues Freewebs’ progression from a provider of simple and easy site-building tools, to offering a broad platform upon which site and content creators can gain global visibility and traffic.

I have to say I really enjoy the new look and feel of Freewebs.com. The entire Web site just has a much cleaner and easier to manage interface.

Some additional features include the ability to add YouTube video in a single click without leaving the Freewebs page, a simplified site design and convenient import tools that enable users to centralize their online presence without having to recreate content like email contacts, blog entries and profiles from other Web sites.

All and all a very nice experience.
