Contest: Giving away a 1GB Hosting Package

leighmcc · 08-30-2007, 11:00 PM

I would like to give away a 1 year hosting package (1GB Space / 100GB Bandwidth) to assist someone with putting their website on the Internet. Whether it be to help start off your web design company, domain name company, or a personal project.

At this point in time, I have 1 account to give away. So if you would like this account, please post a reply to this thread stating why you should receive this hosting package.

The person I think most deserves the package, will receive the package.

Contest Closes: 14th September 2007 23:59 Sydney, Australia time.

Note: There are no requirements for you to pay anything at the end of the year. The account expires in 1 year, and if you do not wish to keep it, do nothing and the account will expire. If you want to keep it, you may renew it.

I cant pay for hosting ( i dont got a visa) i have to use free hosting and my site takes ages to load and im thinking of giving it up hope i win this contest it would help ALOT!!!!

I can't even open a paypal account or get a debt card, because I'm underaged. And yet, that doesn't stop me from my sheer determination to keep my free website/forum running and interesting which is, as I'm sure most of you know, is nearly impossible. And its harder when your younger than some of your godamn posters! I'm 14 for hecks sake, and I need such a little boost to give me that little bit more of determination to keep the forum running.

I would like to announce that unfortunately I cannot give this account to anyone under the age of 18. For legal reasons I do not sell to parties under 18, and in accepting this account the winner will infact become a client requiring him/her to be 18 years of age. If you are under 18, please have a guardian take your place with actual account details instead of using your own details.

Should an under-18 win, and cannot present an over 18 guardian to take their place as the account holder, their entry will become invalid.

Sorry for the bad news, but you can still win as long as a guardian can be the account holder. Only a few days left now. Anyone else want to submit a response?

I deserve it because I want it....Isn't that a good enough reason? Well if not, I deserve it because I work 12 to 16 hours a day, monday through sunday, and make less than minimum wage here in the US.....If that's not a good enough reason, then you should meet my 2 year old son Xander......If you met him, you would give me anything I wanted....

And if that's not good enough, then, well, I don't know, I think that Xander will be a good enough reason.

Silph · 09-10-2007, 06:20 AM

i hope i get this

theSiteSupport.net · 09-10-2007, 09:30 PM

I'll apply for this free hosting package you have here, but first does it have php or include a domain name with it?

Anyway I've been wanting to make a new site about me and what I do, ect. I allready got the layout planned out (gotta make it now) and the domain name I want is availible in .com and .net

good for me!

Time travels so slow =P

The package is for a server with the same environment as described for the other packages at http://www.startyourownwebsite.net. So yes, PHP 4 and 5 are available.

I will provide a subdomain, but you will need to purchase a domain name. You can purchase these in the hosting control panel for $9.95, or you can use one you already own or acquire elsewhere.

Thank you all for your responses, not too far in the future (before the end of the year) I will be running this competition here again with another hosting package.

If you did not win, you are welcome to take advantage of the discount code listed below which will give you 4 months for free.

theSiteSupport.net · 09-17-2007, 02:35 AM

I'm sorry I recently have had some problems with my main site and need to focuss my attention to that, so I cannot accept the hosting. Maybe at the next contest I will sign up, but I don't want to take the account since I won't be able to get started on it for a while.

I'm proud I won though

leighmcc · 09-17-2007, 05:14 AM

Due to theSiteSupport.net's decision to turn down the offer of web hosting, I am not giving the web hosting to Silph.
