zFreeHost - bannerless - yes, 404 pages you bet your ass

[NelsonN]

Well,

Looks like zFreeHost has started moderating their message board and have not allowed my posts on the "404 error pages" pop-ups.

It seems that their business model is to pop-up a 404 error page every so often. They claim it is a bug or some memory upgrade bullshit.

Looks like "the cat is out of the bag."

zFreeHost, you can't moderate my posts here. So tell me, what's the excuse on the 404 error pages? Seems to me that that is your business model. Well, at that rate my domain isn't going to be worth shit and neither is your free host.

Looks like I can start searching for a new home for my domain.

Only a idiot would beleive a freehost can survive in 404 traffic alone.

[gse]

pay for hosting

Nothing new :(

Yep and as they continue to play this BS its reviewers and TGP owners who suffer also..

You piss off reviewers and TGP owners and you shit in your own backyard in my view. Personally im sick of freehosted gallerys anymore its become a fucking hassle that i need to actually click 1:3 and make sure they arent randomly 404ing.

Even bestsexhost and many others are playing this game it seems now days. I have seen them do it more then one time. Funny though most of these hosts will also delete the images for TOS yet leave the gallery and thumbs to get the free traffic.

if i see a site with 1 image going 404 i just hit the reject button and move on simple as that.

Thanks Sandman... I guess I deserve that.

First PimpServer strikes at you with redirected foreign traffic, and now ZFreeHost redirecting random pages to 404!? :mad:

They just don't know when to quit. They have given some caching system as an excuse for these errors, and have said that the 6GB RAM upgrade will change things.
Let's see, so the top 6GB of data will be served and the thousands of webmasters who receive under 1000 hits/day and do not get into the cache will be coming up as 404!? This is completley unacceptable and outrageous!

FYI: If my popular 6GB freak0-p0rno gallery takes up all the cache, guess what, all your sites goto a 404 page! :LOL:

NelsonN: If it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

But what guys!
Their design (isprime.com) is cool!

LMAO

Well, you get what you pay for. Use a freehost, and live with the re-directs. They have to pay the bills somehow. I don't think it is so terrible. I'll use them to host nasty as fuck TGP galleries I build to link for myself on my own sites, and they do great for that. The money off those pages is 100% pure profit.

I'd never host a domain on a freehost, because they can get it blacklisted due to their 404 pages. And I wouldn't build my TGP galleries for submission on one. But for linking off my own TGPs they are fine.

Most of the galleries I see suck. I mean, they suck so fucking bad, they should not even be made, much less be hosted on a pay host. So as a TGP owner, I cut them more slack when I see a freehost being used. As long as the freehost 404 console hell, I don't really care. Sexshare used to crash my browser if I hit a 404 during reviews, but I can't think of a bad one like that right now.

Please remember though not ALL freehosts redirect, We dont and never will.

I'm not going to spam my Host, but if anyone wants an account, u guys can always get me on ICQ - 30264384
