Rules for Hosting
avada-kedavra.net › hosting › hosting rules
- You are applying to be hosted at avada-kedavra.net, but if you have a site that would suit one of my other domains, please let me know. I only host domains on a case-by-case basis, and this is usually for friends or for current hostees that have decided to upgrade to a domain name.
- I would prefer that your site be related to Harry Potter in some way, but I'm open to negotiation.
- Please link back to your hosting domain on your website. Text or button is fine.
- You need to keep your site in perfect working order. This includes regular updates (at least once every 6 months), as well as site maintenance.
- You are responsible for ensuring that any scripts you use on the site are updated and secure. Jem has a wonderful article on her website about Unsafe PHP Scripts and Safer Alternatives.
- No large files of any kind are to be hosted on your website. If you have videos that you want to put up, try using a streaming facility such as YouTube or MegaVideo.
- Please comply with the Dreamhost Terms of Service. If I receive a warning from my host because you violated the Terms of Service, it could affect everyone hosted here. So please play nice.
What you get
- Webspace. This is not really limited, as I am currently hosted with Dreamhost who have offered a LOT of space and a LOT of bandwidth. However, if you're using a lot of space, I might ask you to find hosting elsewhere. Don't worry, though - Dreamhost are plenty cheap! In fact, why don't you check out their prices? If you use the promocode AVADAKEDAVRA, you'll even get a free domain name!
- FTP access to your site.
- Automatic installs of certain scripts: Wordpress, MediaWiki, Drupal, Joomla, phpBB....
- An email address, if you need one. Most people are happy with the one they've got, however, so don't ask for an email address if you're not going to use it. That's being wasteful of resources.
- Stability, and a guaranteed home for years to come. I've owned avada-kedavra.net since 2002, and I don't plan on letting the domain lapse or expire. If you want a stable home, then you've found the right place.
