Free Web Sites? - READ THE FINE PRINT!

Fun4TheMoney
When signing up for all those red-hot free web sites out there, be sure to read the user agreements, carefully. I know you're all sweet, gentle, wonderful people, but if some evil gremlin got into your code and uploaded something less than desireable to your web site, YOU COULD BE LIABLE FOR MORE THAN JUST HAVING YOUR SERVICE CANCELED. Here is a quote from the user agreement for the .TK free sites.

"In addition to your indemnification obligations set forth in Section 14.2 herein, in the event we determine that you have violated any of the terms of this Agreement, you will be responsible to us for any and all costs incurred by us in enforcing the terms of this Section 11.4. "

Be very careful, folks. sad.gif

Thank you

you would have to do some really bad stuff to have them actually enforce that

those terms are simply to protect themselves from any extraordinary costs that were incurred as a result of abuse. IF they actually tried to prosecute or sue, it would not be worth their time or money.

First, they would have to find out WHO the REAL person is. They'd have to dig through IP logs and then contact the ISP to release confidential information. So, they would probably need a warrant or something similar to obtain the information. NOT an easy task. Then there are the lawyers...

yeah i wonder how many times they actually sued someone. booting you off the site is most likely all that'd happen. plus wouldn't this go for paid hosts as well? say you or someone who hacks through you site ends up costing them a million bucks, they'd sue you too.

    review of most sites on the Web, and you can easily submit one that isn't (like for example,
    trap17.com is listed and reviewed, but nyceducated.info and mesivtaofroslyn.info aren't - I
    submitted both). They analyze the number and content of emails that the site sends, the safety of
    downloads from the site, the safety of other sites that the site links to, and displays a nic...

  22. Best Ways To Generate Traffic - How do you guys promote your sites? (17)
    I was wondering what kind of ways you guys promote your sites and how you try to generate traffic.
    There are obviously the standard ways like submitting to search engines, free for all links,
    reciprocal links, but is there something else? I read on another board, a guy created a screen
    saver and uploaded it to free download sites. Because the download sites always have your URL and
    you can also put your site in the screen saver itself, it is a good way to promote. Other ideas?...
