    Talking ASP.NET free host[JUST A GOOD ADVICE]

    Searching on Google for the following query: ["asp.net" "free host"] gave me (among others) this site back:

    Europe.Webmatrixhosting.net

    Here are the specs: you get 20 MB of file space on a surprisingly fast server (I guess they want to impress the ASP.NET programmers) and an additional 10 MB of DB space in a MS SQL Server.

    Technologies:
    - Only ASP.NET, so NO CGI, PHP or even legacy ASP.
    - The site is hosted on a Windows .NET Server 2003.
    - IIS 6.0.
    - MS SQL Server 2000.
    - .NET Framework 1.1 installed.
    - Choice of a number of starters kits which gives you a basic site. (I didn't take any of them, I just started a new ASP.NET Web Project in VS.NET)
    - Choice between C# or VB.NET code-behind.

    I have been using it since last sunday (14-12-2003) and it worked so well for me I had to mention it here. The best part of it all is that it's FREE ... Woohoo! Oh yeah, unlimmited monthly data transfer ...

    Here is the complete feature list

    I started testing yesterday and it worked like a charm. (I have Rampaart.com (=my last name, Dutch) pointing to it with my first test page). Go check it out!

    With it being free do you have to have advertising banners/pop-ups on your site?

    No, you don't. The whole thing is powered by Microsoft and I think it is totally intended for ASP / JSP programmers to try ASP.NET. (That's why probably not even legacy ASP is allowed).
