free-webhosts.com, 0php.com, forums.somethingawful.com banner, freewebhostingtalk.com, affiliate program...
I'm looking for something other than just promoting in forums, link directories, etc. That stuff no longer works, with so many people doing it. Sorry if I was a bit confusing.
Ok, well I have done exactly what I posted numerous times and each time i received > 500 uniques per day for months.
Yep. Its an alexa top 1,000 sites, extremely targeted (males 18-35), and it only costs $50 per month for a banner in the rotation plus you can post it for free in the freebies section. If you want to advertise at SA you need an account (which I have), so PM me if you want to advertise there. I made a killing on the busted tees affiliate program months back.
When was this? Less than a year ago? Or longer than that? The Web hosting industry has changed greatly in the past year (I've run a paid hosting company since August 2004), so if you're basing this info on something you did several years ago, that would explain why it doesn't work now.
6 months ago and I was a free host, not paid hosting. Actually, it received about 1000 uniques per day for the first couple, then tapered to 500 a day.
