Hey, since I am done w/ college, I'm going to lose my edu webspace soon and would like to find a new host for my (rather simple) website (http://www3.hmc.edu/~nalger/webpage/maps.html). Does anyone know of some good website hosts? Free would be nice, but I'm willing to pay a little bit if the host is good.

Right now everything is just static html pages, but I'd like to add a comments system (not really sure what that requires).

Nearlyfreespeech ( http://www.nearlyfreespeech.net ) is great. Pay for what you use ($1 per gigabyte of bandwidth, and $0.01 per megabyte of storage every month). You deposit funds - however much you want - and it simply sucks from there until the supply of money is gone. So for example, you could put 20 bucks into it at first and it'll probably last you months before you need to deposit any more (depending on the level of traffic, of course). I signed up there recently, costs are great and the support is unbelievably prompt. Love it, highly recommended. :smile:

If you have an old computer lying around you could set it up with apache. That's certainly free. I would imagine the upload speed on your connection is similar to that of a free service anyway.
Blame it on Microsoft, God does.
