I am thinking about making a castle website. What I am wondering is, what is the best FREE web service I can get? I'm too poor to pay, just so you know, and some help finding one would be appreciated.

best of luck finding a FREE web hosting that actually lets you put a lot of stuff on it, or you could sigh up mat lugnet (pay $10) for a life time thing and you can also get a webpage at lugnet...

I use Geocities. It's not great, but it's incredibly easy (I'm so freaking computer illiterate), and it comes free with a Yahoo account (also free).

Hello!


If you are using a free web host I wholeheartedly suggest you store all your LEGO-pics on BrickShelf and just link them from there to your html-LEGO-Castle-page on your free webspace. So you are able to show those pics also in this forums while many free webhosts do not allow deep links.

Why make a lego castle site when you have CC for all your Lego castle needs?
But, I think the best option would be to use Lugnet, if you join. It is much easier than making a page on Geocities or Angelfire (as I have had problems with these before). If not, you can always make a lego club page.. they are free and really easy to do.

Of course, as you have limited storing capacity on free space.

I would make a site to have it be more personalized. I may even do a storyline, though perhaps we have too many of those. As for using Lugnet, no can do, because then you have to pay money. I will probably make it with geocites. As for a Lego club page... are you insane?

Lugnet is 10 dollars for life. It is by far the cheapest high-quality option out there. I wouldn't trust Geocities with a simple page of my dog Gunther. Geocities is totally unreliable.

And hey, if you've got enough money for LEGO sets, I am sure you can scrape together 10 bucks.

P.S. I don't have a dog.

I've had mine for probably about 5 years now (plus 3 others, 1, 2 and 4 years old), and I've never had a problem.
Go with whatever you think is best, obviously, but anything that can be set up in less than 5 minutes is all right in my book.

I like bravenet.

Maybe I will use Lugnet, but I actually used to have an account. Then I lost the email with my password and stuff because of a virus, so I couldn't log on. Evil....

Email the LUGNET admins, you should be able to get your password reset.

It happened to me a while back, and I got a new one.

Hi Kevin, can you tell me which email would be good to contact? I've been trying to contact them but haven't got a response.

Sure.

Email Todd Lehman at "todd.lehman AT lugnet DOT com"

and also post in http://news.lugnet.com/admin/general/

And if you don't get a response reasonably soon, email me at "blocksidge AT gmail DOT com" cause I've got an in or two that could help it get done faster

If you own the domain name (ie: bbbbb.com) I'll host the html part for you. Currently I'm kinda pushing it with my ISP for bandwidth running 3 domain names w/ALL the images (about 4000 images) included. I have tons of space for free but the bandwidth concerns me a bit. In the world of web presence it can be done cheaply, all 3 domains cost me less than $30 a year just for the .coms. Everything else is free and easy.
Just my offering
