Default Looking for a good host...

Hey, I'm looking into a host for a stepfile site, but I can't find anything. Any suggestions?
What I'd like:
-lots of space
-no ads (screws with my designs and all)
-a not cheesy name (like I really want to be 1500000megs4u.com/whatever or something)

Some help?

Good free hosts are pretty much impossible to find.

I currently have my hosting with dreamhost, and so far it's been working out.

Web Hosting Provider - Hostingplex.com - Domain hosting - PHP Hosting - cheap web hosting - Frontpage Hosting - E-Commerce Web Hosting - Hostingplex

Lemme know if that helps.
Although I could be interpreting wrong.

I use their connection with c-panel to host my website(currently in my signature.)

Koreru offers great hosting starting at $5 per month. No yearly contracts, either.

110MB.com - Most Endorsed FREE Website Hosting Provider

the third requirement is silly due to the fact that there are already so many free redirectors out there.

lol well the internet's not free xD

or is it? O.o

Other than that, I dunno. Hostingplex gives a lot of stuff to you as well.
Including pre-written scripts, and html codes.

And pre-built chat room, and forum code as well.

I pay $50 a year for 200GB.
It's all good. :P

http://www.googlepages.com is free if you have a gmail account (if not, email me and I'll send you a gmail invite)
on there you get 100 MB, which isn't a terribly huge amount but it would suffice to host a good number of stepfiles...

and the url is nice, it's just *yourusername*.googlepages.com

My suggestion also goes towards DreamHost. If you decide that you want to get one of their plans and pay ahead of time, I can get you a coupon code that should save you something in the range of $100.

I dunno. I think it depends on the traffic you get. I ran a website that had maybe 10 hits a day for nearly 3 years on my home computer using Comcast internet.

I know the third requirement is silly. I'm a silly person who delights in the superfluous.
Even if I could do the whole thing with the ISP.... I have a sinking feeling my computer would explode. That.... would be messy.
I'll try the hosts mentioed. Thanks a bundle.

I've had no problem hosting files on my computer with Comcast. That said, I agree with everyone else here in that if you want good webspace, you're going to have to pay. There's tons out there that offer great plans at really affordable prices. When you consider that even lunch at a fast food restaurant costs like six dollars nowadays, $5 a month is nothing.
