That's a good point, because I know MML is a rotten prick when he finds someone using a sponsor host. He finds a big list of the submitter's domains & emails to add to the blacklist when this happens :D

i dont take any chance, i submit on paid hosting, just noticed that one sponsor hosting is much better then my paid one :)

Maybe you should move to that "very reliable and expensive host" :)

I dont earn that much to pay for that kind of hosting yet, actually i am very happy with my host, but you know there are BMW and there are Ferrari :)

Hmmm - the most reliable host in the world right now is only $20 a month - and they are the most secure, never a downtime and cater to the adult WMs - with loads of bandwidth (a heck of a lot more that a free site submitter could ever use) for that $20

can we know what it is? or pm

Is there a list with blacklisted hosting companies too?
I mean, if a newbie starts building free sites can he/she check a list of hosts to avoid in order to have his/her sites listed?

Same as fresh...
Can you post/pm an url?

I don't know them all off the top of my head, but I can say that I can not think of one that's based in the US that's banned :)

Is it ok to post hosts names on the board?

The best out there is colo-cation
They have a virtual plan at $20 that would get you more than you need - and the guy that runs it is the most respected server whiz in the world (not just the US) :) - and you can see the speed and integrity differences immediately - I switched about 2 years ago and all of my sites run about 10 times as fast - I believe this board as well as some other LL owners are hosted there as well

Of course CD34 (his board name) monitors this board constantly as well
