Have you at freeola ever considered offeing a paid for service as well as the freebie???
With al this talk of not being able to upload via ADSL connections and not having the monthly pay packages for dial-ups, I think you might want to consider a paid for service for hosting???
Simpy it would be a case of £5 a month or something for the standard unlimited Webspace/E-mail and all the stuff you have at present, but with the added bonus of not being restricted to your dial-up, and alowwing use with ADSL or monthly dial-up packages to take advantage of the great service you offer.
Also, you could consider highr packages, with MySQL and all, maybe even Pre-installed Scripts, Secure Servers, Sub-Domains, the ability to let other people have an E-mail address with our Domains, without giving them our master usernames/password etc..
... what do ya' think???

Unfortunatly you were to late in ADSL, so I've already signed up with pipex. But instead of sticking with my old dial-up, could you not quickly introduce a small monthly fee for the ability to connect to Freeola Services from anything other than just your dial0up?? At present, I'd guess I'm using Freeola very little in terms of Dial-up's, so guessing I make you guys about 50p a month .... pretty crap, don't you agree??? Plus no doubt some of that goes to BT.
Maybe say £5 a month would allow us to simply have the service we currently use, just no restrictions on using Freeola Dial-ups?? I think that would improve your share in the hosting market .. as your service is one of the best, but with more people using ADSL already, and people using Dial-ups using Monthly tariffs, I don't see Freeola going to far down the line.
Also, just out of interest, is there a reason for wanting to set Web Space limits on ADSL/Paid for services when you offer unlimited for free?? What a I missing??? And does this mean you'd also no longer want to give unlimited E-mail Addresses??

I think limiting webspace is a bad idea.
That would seriously cut back the amount of media on site.
Mine had alot of screenshots and we have only just begun. I use Broadband, but would prefer the slowness of Dial-up if i thought the webspace would suffer!!!!!
I dont mind paying a little more every 2 years, but a £5 a month doesnt sound much but it soon mounts up!

There was a plan for this and I think we may still be offering this service in the future. There would be a limit on web space (50 or 100 meg) but you could pay for more and for most people that would be fine. We are also going to be offering our own ADSL service soon.
Nice idea! Hopefuly some unsuspecting member of staff will read this later today and use your idea !
I think this is a great idea: I signed up for web-hosting when I still had dial-up and it is now very frustrating having to switch off broadband so I can check email or upload stuff. I wouldn't mind paying a reasonable amount for broadband access to this stuff.
