Caveat Adoptor?
@mycosys,
We were having some compatibility issues with the form, but we fixed them immediately.
Please try now, everything should run smoothly! https://onesite.co/
I invite you all to try out OneSite and let me know what you think of it!
I have signed up, mostly to see how it works. So here is my feedback so far (not going to delve into business model, but trying to compare you with other free hosts I have seen and tried)
1) Clicking on "ACTIVAR" gave me an error message in Spanish. I didn't take a screen shot, but when I tried again it said that the activation link had already been used once. Guess the first time, the account was activated and then the error message popped up. I am able to use the account now. (You should probably think of changing all communication/messages to English)
2) The link to the cPanel is way at the bottom in the footer. Not my first choice of location. Probably should be alongside with the "Sign Up" as a similar button "Login"
3) The home page is pretty simple. I don't see the features you offer. The stuff about 'no ads', '99.9% uptime' is lost in text.
I have installed wordpress to try the site and see how fast the server responds. Pingdom seems pretty happy with the load times (<.5s load times from the US, though from Melbourne it took ten times that)
@fvsegarra Wish you luck. I hope this works.
@ramesh_vish,
You signed up when we were having some compatibility issues, during the first days of opening the hosting to everyone. Now everything has been 100% and we have finally running on the stable version of OneSite!
And thanks for the performance heads up!!
"Compatibility issues"?
Fancy word for "we fucked something up"..
Don't worry though! This chap works for Hostinger International and has been working on the industry for over 4 years, top notch services that are revolutionary and completely unique and never seen before
Haha @GCat?
Is that a question?
It was some kind of rethoric question, where I was asking @GCat if we expected us to laugh because of his super funny joke
He wasn't joking.
Everything is of course planned and this shit is going to work.
Have you at least read @KuJoe 's book? It's probably out of date now but it is the only book I'm aware of on free hosting.
@trewq,
Of course he was. His comment was ironic
@raindog308,
nope, what book is this?
For your acknoledge, this month we've provided free web hosting to hundreds of people, and costs are equal to AdSense revenue, as expeceted. The only additional costs are those related to marketing, which are much lower than if I only offered paid web hosting, even though it will lead to the same result, after free clients upgrade. There is no doubt that offering free web hosting is a much better alternative than offering paid web hosting directly. My plan is getting proven.
Yes, with your limited sample data you can already draw that conclusion. I doubt many if any of those free accounts will upgrade on a recurring basis. I honestly don't think you have made the sort of revenue from AdSense you are claiming.
@trewq,
I'm just saying that the first month fully meets our expectatives, and the recurring months shouldn't be different. Everything is well planned.
And sure, I mean, you don't have to believe it.
Not sure how long it's going to take you to realize nobody here cares. You will get there though.
No one cares:
"2K views 137 comments"
Makes sense
don't get fooled, 95% probably are in here just waiting for drama, it's LET after all.
at least you avoided to feed drama by keep replying in an objective manner - so far, so good ;-)
Why is that? The only thing I see that would lower because you offer free hosting is income.
We offer sustainable free hosting, which does a lot of marketing for us, for free. Therefore, the additional marketing costs are very low. So essentially, we grow much faster than paid hostings, for very less, and at some point we will also offer paid services to make profits like they do, having spent much less
Not a chance, with encouraged and false clicks it's possible though.
Okay
Looks like Eleven2 Reseller Account.
Drama has been a bit dry lately, maybe Dewlance can come entertain us
It is, they are not known for their tolerance of free hosts on their servers. They certainly used to have a clause in the terms specifically saying no free hosts
now what could possible go wrong ;-)
From Eleven2 terms.
So bottom line, it's a service that could go down at any time.
Hi there,
We specifically spoke with eleven2 about this and they accepted being our provider. We will use their services until we buy our own servers (hopefully by Jan 2017)
I thought you said that you had your own servers already? Wasn't that one of the selling points? Why wouldn't people just go buy something from BuyShared, not have a coffee that day and get service for a year at much higher quality?
