I think you free hosting is the best free hosting site i have ever used. The ads are small and don't mess up the sites layout. The site management is very easy!

Fateback has been good for us. Though there are issues they offer a great service with minimal advertising at the best price - Free. I needed a free hosting service that offered DNS and had little or no advertising. Fateback solved all these needs. The tiny banner at the top of the page only advertises themselves only with no pictures or animations that would slow down the site. Since the banner is actually code inserted directly into the html of the page it will not interfere with search engine spiders the way the frames and redirectors other free hosts use do.
Down time seems to be minimal, in fact I have only noticed them down once in the 6 months that they have been hosting several of my sites. This down time was for only a few minutes. Speed could not be better. My sites are image intensive and load speeds are close to those of my paid hosting service for my commercial sites.
My only complaints are minor. The minimal user interface, simple uploading only is cumbersome and inconvenient for making changes away from my work PC. If I have to copy the HTML from the site itself and remove the code they have inserted. I then make my changes and re-upload it to FateBack. If I forget to remove the code then they will insert another on top of the first leaving me with two banners on the site.
The lack of any real control panel also means that there are no templates, wizards or extras like counters or guest books. Not something I would need but others might and if you do then this is not the host for you.
One last thing. You will need to be fairly self sufficient. There is little or no customer support and the FAQs are minimal. The way I look at it that's a service that requires a persons full time and attention and one I should pay for. Since this is a free service I don't expect that kind of support and attention. A good understanding of HTML, DNS, if your going to use this service, and basic file transfer is required on the part of the webmaster.
To sum up. This host is not for the beginner web master. They offer a great hosting and DNS service without intrusive advertising but also without any of the bells and whistles.
If quality hosting and DNS with minimal advertising is what your looking for I would highly recommend Fateback Free Hosting.

Everything is great. The only problem I really see is the limit of 200 kb on filesizes. I make graphic layouts, but some of them are around 250-300 kb and I cannot host them on your server, this is the ONLY reason I don't use your server as my main host. I am currenly using it now until I get my paid hosting. It's still really good tho. Keep up the good work.

60 MB, short and selectable domain name, FTP account, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited websites, a POP3 mail account, and a nice file manager, all for free! Sign up and start unloading your site instantly! That is the best service I've ever seen! Every one of your websites in your account will get a domain of (NAME HERE).(CHOOSE YOUR DOMAIN HERE).com! There's only 2 small problems: They don't allow hotlinking and they put a banner on the top of your pages, which might not match the style of your web site...

I can't upload my files.
[Try FTP -- The browser-upload didn't work for me either, but FTP did.]

As a poor web developer I have been on the search for free hosting. I have tried geocites but found too many restrictions on file types and there advertisment space dosn't display correctly on non-msie browsers. ICQ is slow and a can't login. Freewebs is slow and nearly impossible to edit. With Fateback the only problem I have encountered was that the small piece of advertising that comes with a free acount isn't HTML and as such while my HTML is valid the site technically isn't.

I just moved both of my websites to Fateback and so far, I'm thrilled with it. I'm using one of my sites as an online portfolio of my work as a web site designer, and your skinny little banner is loads better than the popup ads and huge banners that used to clutter up my pages. Thanks a bunch!

Ten out of Ten for product. A free webhoster with a very unobtrusive banner and ease of operation... The only real problems I've had are when the entire site text became centered when the banner was changed to light blue and having to upload through the the members area due to failure at logging on with my FTP program due to socket errors. otherwise TEN out of TEN for the whole thing. Congratulations on a fine product and service.
