Hi Fateback, Thanks for the free webspace you have provided. I'm impressed with the banners/ads which is smaller and no popups such a nuisance found in Tripod.com. Keep up the good work and I hope you guys will stay long for life.

Your site is very good. But the Only thing I'm suffering is, you're not allowing any Server side scripts such as ASP, PHP or database like MySQL or anything. Plese allow this and I'm sure that your site will popup above all others.

60 megs is very generous, but I'd like to be able to either transfer a web site or upload a zip file for my whole site. I have a lot of files, and it isn't that fun to do so all at once.

Well I like the fact that this site allows plenty of space but it is very hard to navigate around the site. Maybe putting up some extra links at the bottom and top of each page would help users get around. Also the upload limit is a little annoying if someone is trying to upload a big source file or index file. Other than that it is a great site. Keep up the work!

It has not constant speed. Sometimes is fast, and sometimes is too slow. The add in the free hosting is not encouraging. I rather use geocities, wich speed is always the same, and the hosting is always available.

fateback.com is an awesome service. They have some customer support as when I e-mailed them directly I got speedy service and my password restored quite quickly. The file limit and new banner adds are quite annoying though. As aforementioned, this site is incredible for new webmasters but with time, it's likely that you'll grow out of this service.

Fateback has its good and bad points. The unlimited bandwidth and 60MB file space are undoubtedly good, but unfortunately I've found the bad points to outweight the good. For example, the maximum file size is 200KB, PHP is not supported, the banners placed at the top of each page mean anyone with a resolution of 640x480 (or anyone trying to make a frames/iframes layout) will get side-scrolling, as the banner does not work on a percentage width.
Those are minor points of irritation, however - the really big problem with Fateback is its utter lack of customer service. At one point the site went down for several weeks without warning or explanation. At another point, I was unable to access my account, and never received a reply to any of the emails I sent to customer service. Thankfully the problem cleared itself up, but if it hadn't I would have been messed up. If you have a problem, you're on your own. Some aspects of its security are laughable - for example, if you use their html upload system (as I occasionally do when updating from a non-home computer) instead of FTP, then click on a link to a page that contains a tracker while in the html upload system, the tracker will log the html upload page and allow anyone who looks at the tracker to access your account, whether they have your login name and password or not. Also, no one was notified that banners would be added - they just appeared there one day, and since no one was notified it really messed up everyone's site layouts.
I've stayed with Fateback despite the problems because I treasure that unlimited bandwidth on a free account. The way Fateback has been going, though, I have a feeling that won't last - and when it goes, I do too.
