What the Reviewers Say:
This
is one of the fastest growing free web hosts on the net. Because their
name is so short and they provide subdomains, you end up with some of
the shortest URLs possible without registering your own domain (www.Bob.20m.com).They
provide some excellent site building and file management tools and enough
help that even a novice can get off to a good start here with no experience.
Although we'd always like to see more, 20mb is an adequate amount of
web space for almost all purposes, allowing over 2000 pages of text
or 500 photos.

Hi! I just
wanted to write and tell you about my experiences with 20m.com.
I have set up a site there for my mother's cookbook, "Microwave Cooking
for One" (http://www.microwavecooking.20m.com). This is my first web
site. I was already familiar with Microsoft Publisher2000 because I
use it in my work, so that's what I used to design my site. I can't
comment on the online resources for free web page building, because I didn't
use them, but if they are anything like the other resources available
at 20m.com, I am sure they are excellent. When it came time to publish
my site, I chose 20m.com because it was the first site on your list
that you rated "5/5." Perhaps, I should have done a little bit of research
first, but I logged in, found the name I wanted was available, and just
moved forward. I ran into a little trouble when I tried to upload my
files the first time (which I attribute to my being a novice), but the
excellent online help quickly assisted me in identifying what I did
wrong, and sooner than I would have ever believed, I actually had a
web site up and running. The online help in registering my site with
search engines pointed me in the right direction, and the ability to
create email accounts is great. I have several now, which I use for
different tasks ... one for registering with search engines, one for
signing guests books at related sites, etc. The feature I like best
of all is the online statistics. I can easily determine how many visits
I've had, where the visitors came from, what pages they viewed, etc.
They even provided me with the tools to create my own guestbook! Everything
hasn't been absolutely smooth sailing, but when there was trouble (I
was unable to access my free website for a while), and I wrote them an email,
I received a courteous reply back letting me know that they were aware
of the problem and that my site was getting individual attention by
the system administrators. The problem was quickly corrected, and I
haven't experienced any trouble since. All in all, I am extremely pleased
with my experience at 20m.com. I'm more than happy for them to display
their banner promoting 20m.com at the top of my pages! It's such a small
price to play for all the wonderful resources they provide. When I think
of all the time I have spent registering with search engines, and promoting
my site every way I can think of, I am glad that I found a good home
right out of the starting gate. I shudder to think of all that lost
work, if I had to go somewhere else and start all over again. Thank
you for having listed them at your site. I sure am glad I found 20m.com!
