Free Webspace

Commercial (paid) webspace

  • gloHosting - inexpensive, Cumulus-friendly hosting
  • DreamHost - good value for multiple domains
  • E-Rice - Low cost ($10, $20 or $30 a year) web hosting used by many weather related sites. A great way to start out. All you need is your own Domain and away you go. Offers PHP5, MySQL and more. Does not provide crontab abilities however.
  • Godaddy
  • Hostgator - Both individual sites and reseller sites. Works very well with weather related sites. Especially useful if you need multiple domains contained within a single management system (reseller account).

Non-Compatible with Cumulus

  • Google Sites
