Which is the best Free web host to make a music band webpage (excluding myspace)?

Question

I am not familiar with building websites, I just know that I need space for mp3 and video, pictures, band bio and info updates, and if possible to have our own domain. There's so many options out there and I don't know how to start.
Thanks for any assistance!!!

Answer 1

Now, that is a tricky question. By the way I am presuming you are referring to your own band or you are building the website for a band. Thus you will have copyright for all the materials that are uploaded.



Taking into consideration the above - I am afraid I cannot recommend you free host that would allow you to upload multimedia and provide you with your own domain too. You might think about making your own FaceBook page though. Register a new FaceBook account for your band. You will be able to post regular updates for your fans - upload videos and pictures.



Finally I could direct you to the following promotion the hosting company I work for has:

This includes 12months hosting + Free Domain name of your choice. The price is $9.95 only for the whole year. You might want to check it out. Personally I believe it is a very good deal and I am not trying to advertise :) The referral link is my own.

Answer 2

Band Website Hosting

Answer 3

There is no way to get a proper free webhost that will give you your demands.

First of all you won't get the bandwidth/space. And otherway your uploadquota won't be higher than a possible 3 MB :s Which is definatly not enough for movies. (If you would be starting worpress, joomla or other scripts believe me i tried.)

And second thing is if u want the domain you also best pay for it or search on google how to get a free one. There are some methods, but not always as easy as it seems ;-)

So i guess you might be better off on a paid service wich is a cheap domain for like 3$ and a cheap host for 20$ a year which is possibly paid for 3 years in advance :s that's the reality...

OK, those are a lot of questions in one. I would say you have to consider this carefully. If you start uploading your stuff to places like Youtube and so forth you will have to use their domain name. Youtube.com/yourbandname. You could always get your own domain and have everything at one central location and upload or embed music and video on your home page. That is the smartest way to do it since you retain complete comtrol. I would suggest you check out http://www.myownfreeweb.com where you can get a free web site, free web hosting, a free domain name and they have a web builder for people that are innexperienced in setting up web sites. So you set up your band name and domain there, then embed music and video from other sites, this way you don't consume all your bandwidth.
