Web-sites for noobs
Re: Web-sites for noobs
I just heard from a teacher that he plans to pay a quick visit the school sometime this week, so he'd have a chance to put the site up then. So the site might actually go up to the school servers as originally planned. Knock the wood...

Re: Web-sites for noobs
Best place to host game files would be moddb, no question. Mediafire has annoying ads everywhere and sometimes doesn't work. As for hosting the site, well, I use Pruhosting and it seems already to be a lot faster than Worpress.org. Haven't used any other servers though so I couldn't tell you

I highly recommend hosting the game on filefront.com. You'll have to find a different host for the site, however, and I'm not up to date on what the good free web hosts are.
Re: Web-sites for noobs
I bought space from a webhotel with 10GB/month limit. It was only 33 € a year, and a domain was included, and it took just a couple of hours to get the site running after payment. The game is now up at http://www.goblinsgreed.com/goblinenglish.html, and I made a thread, but it looks like no one is interested.iLag wrote:I highly recommend hosting the game on filefront.com.

Also, obviously the site was put up to school servers today. No news for a week, I ask one more time to make sure I won't be wasting the money, and STILL.
