ok, your site is actually a site. not CURRENT DOWNLOADS...ect. It makes costumers happier because of the ADD FREE, graphical experience. More Info go to my site and go to program hosting. I can not do the stuff yet because I am waiting on stuff. :blink:

Ok, you can buy plans. Each Plan allows certain file limits space limits ect.
if you want more stuff buy the more expensive plans, but it just depends on what you want. Like some come with a invision board forum (paid version i think), shopping cart ect. some support multiplayer others don't. They will have communities for them, but currently no. Right now I have to wait for my business lisense, so they are not available. :confused:

So you're limiting yourself to sourceforge-type projects, but you're charging for it and from what I can see not providing anything that sf doesn't.

I'm just waiting for something to make me choose you either over sourceforge or a proper hosting service.

As some constructive critiscism, please have a second go at the visual layout. It starts on the first page, the bottom banner just has no asthetic relevence to the rest of the page, it looks Dodgy. The bevel effects ect are quite tired, and the hosting plan page is hard to read due to the painful primary blue & black combination.

I noticed for the free account people have to transfer files via email. Why not make your life easier with an automated web interface?

When you're a hosting company, page layout, function and style really matters.

As said over at flipcode you are going to have to do better than that if you want to attract people. If a game is opensource then SF is awesome. If a game is large then bandwidth is a huge consideration as is backup and reliability and a more expensive place would be better. If a game is small then there are many free hosting places that offer as much as you. ftp, mysql, php, etc. Most of the other things are free anyhow like forums and such.

Just exactly who are you trying to target?

Also the infinite plan sounds awesome. I would love to sign up to backup more than a terrabyte of data over at your place for only $5/month. Seriously though, you can't make anything infinite, there are always limits, just say them outright.

Currently, I am working hard on changes. Thanks for the help guys. :D I want to tell you, your forum would be add free, everything would have NO adds! So It depends. If you want to pay 50 cents extra a month then yah, It really makes a difference. So far I am looking for people to join my team, so my site can really get better! If anyone would want to join my team, it would help. The more people join the plans the better my site will be. Once I get a reseller plan the site will really kick off. So far a have not alot of space. that is why I am whating to move to spokane washington. I will get payed a lot so Better Plan for Me! Eventually I want to get a the best plan.. B)
