JustFree.com - Free Website Hosting - Policies


FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
  • Do you offer instant, free Wordpress hosting?

    Yes, we do! Just sign up, and follow the instructions in the Application Installer! You'll be running in minutes -- free!

  • Does anyone check my registration information?

    Yes, we are working on a process to verify registration information.
    Please do not just enter made-up or useless information. Your account
    may not stick around too long if you do.

  • Do you have any bandwidth limits on our accounts?

    The system is programmed to detect abusers. If you use *a lot* of
    bandwidth suddenly, your account may be flagged as an abuser.

    If you think you were incorrectly flagged, just contact us so we can
    examine your account -- if you were incorrectly flagged, we can tell
    the system you are "ok" and prevent it from recurring.

    The system will flag you at around 80GB in a month. ;)

  • Can I hotlink from justfree.com?

    Hotlinking is the practice of hosting your images on one location and making them appear (by HTML reference) on another. Such as your Myspace page.

    Justfree.com does not support hotlinking. If you are looking for a service that will let you hotlink images and organize your images into galleries to share your photos, we recommend ImageCoast.

  • How much disk space do I get?

    Our members receive a 80GB of disk space to store their HTML, PHP, MySQL, graphics and other related site items. This number is likely to increase steadily over time.

  • Can I run my own scripts?

    Absolutely, Justfree is one of the only truly free, free hosting platforms that allows you to install and run your own PHP/MYSQL (LAMP) platform based scripts!

  • What scripts can I run?

    Everything your heart desires! :) You can write your own custom scripts, or use any of a number of well known scripts like Wordpress Blogging Software, PHP BB - Forum Software, or Plogger - Open source photo gallery -- with only a few simple, sensible limitations.

    Things like: Spamming, Phishing, or otherwise Abusive (anything, including software) is prohibited. You may lose your account, be banned forever, or worse if you abuse the hospitality of our system or our other friends on the Internet.

    Sensible, right?

  • Do you include any scripts?

    Of course! Not everyone wants to do all of that work by themselves, here is a partial list of the applications available for one-click install in our application installer: osCommerce, MyBB, sBlog, MyLittleForum, Mambo, Xoops, gallery, SMF, Wordpress, Joomla, wikiwig, ZenCart, tikiwiki, cutenews, Nucleus, bBlog, 4images, phpBB2, UseBB. More are becoming available all the time!

  • Any tutorials on how to set up a blog?

    In our perusing of Google, we found a link to this site that walks you through setting up a blog on Justfree for the first time. To set up a blog, step by step, here's how.(warning: this is an external link)

    We're working on getting some up, but clearly our users are better at it than we are. :)

  • What about MySQL access?

    Of course you get MySQL access! How ever are you going to run virtually every useful kind of PHP program with out it??

    Not only that, but you get *3*, count 'em, 3 separate databases for your use! You can run multiple copies of the same script, or have a backup, production and testing database -- whatever makes sense for you!

  • Do you place any advertisements on my pages?

    Nope -- and we have no plans to.

  • Can I place my own advertisements on my site?

    If you want, you absolutely can.

    If you are doing something unfriendly like abusing a search engine, or confusing people, well, we've already covered what will happen -- don't do that.

  • Can I have my own domain?

    Yes, and its super easy too! Just login, tell the control panel what your domain is, and tell your domain registrar to use ns1.justfree.com and ns2.justfree.com for your domain's nameservers. You'll be set up instantly!

  • When will you delete my site?

    While we hope everyone will be an active member of Justfree, we understand that occassionally you get sidetracked and can't make it back. That's why we have made a committment to NOT delete any site strictly for owner-inactivity less than 60 days. If you think you're going to be unable to login at least once in 60 days, you should ask a friend to check on your site for you.

  • Can I host adult or explicit content sites?

    Nope. This is so our servers stay nice and fast for you -- and reasonably work safe!

  • Why do you have rules on content?

    Well, we believe in free speech, but also understand that the majority of our users aren't interested in being on the fringe of the free speech fight. To ensure workplace friendliness, a fast, stable network of servers to run webpages on, and in general be good Netizens, we've established these policies.

    If you are into some cutting edge free speech work, we're not the place for you. We're more work and family friendly. :)



Thanks!
