I am sure they were hosting non-profit stuff for free.
You can have one page for free on Telecom's site from memory, too.
I can't PM you (Vince?) so if you can PM me I'll see what else there is when I get back tonight.

There's a few other hosting programs I know of from $50 per annum.

Try http://wordpress.com

Its made for blogs but can be made to work for simple sites.

Or if you are prepared to pay around $60 per year then you can't go past http://squarespace.com

Cheers. Free parking & Wordpress look OK.

Use 110mb.com - free no ads hosting. Buy a cheap domain name and have it redirected there for a "normal" looking no ads website.

dM -who are reliable, good service and reasonably priced to host a business website with a shopping cart etc.

Anyone else fell free to advise

Thanks

Apologies Jay for not responding but I've been ill with the flu for weeks and weeks.
Just as well by the looks though because the providers I know of can't compete with adventi's suggestion (except for maybe one but they're only new).
$3.60/month for linux, 1 gig space and 2 gig traffic on the business plan :eek: What a bargain.
My site comes up for renewal in November and I might transfer.
Thanks adventi.
