Adrianvdh Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) Hi do you know when you have a website registered (free/paid) and you type a file in the search bar like this... www.domain.com/dog.jpeg and there is does not exist and it says something like this... Not Found The requested URL /dog.jpeg was not found on this server. Now on my domain name that i have (free) when I type a file and it does not exist it errors out and goes to the host website and says something like this... http://e.freewebhostingarea.com/not-found.html Any help would be nice thanks Edited February 18, 2013 by Adrianvdh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornholio7 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 i would assume because it is free hosting, all errors will default to the host page i have paid hosting and all i get is a generic page not found message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornholio7 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 best to ask your free host really, if they have a generic script for errors then they will have to alter it, presuming they would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh ya one more question do you have to pay permonth or can you pay just once, straight up? i use one.com for several domains and am satisfied with their service i pay yearly for hosting and 5 yearly for domain names when i tried free hosting, there were ads everywhere, i don't want that. free hosting was very slow loading as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornholio7 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 there has to be a reason you hosts picture has a remove ads by upgrading button so i assume you have some sort of google or other ads on your page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrianvdh Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) But I want a .com domain and faster upload speeds and I realy want it to get the file cannot be found error and where are these adds? P.S how many posts does a user need to get 4 to 5 stars on this forum? Edited February 18, 2013 by Adrianvdh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornholio7 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 it looks like you don't get ads on the small/normal site package you have, that's a good thing as the saying goes,you pay your money and make your choice, hosting can be very expensive on dedicated servers choose wisely i don't know how many posts luk has the 5 stars set at, and why does that matter to you? its not about how many posts you make, on a help forum, surely the content of your post should be more important?
