Web Host for Adult Content
I'm looking for a web host that's not necessarily porn-oriented but that allows adult content for an erotic ezine I'm creating. Any ideas? Thanks! Jul 17 06 05:47 am Link Hey there! How's it going? I need to respond to your tag, but I thought I'd post here real quick. Actually, I'm looking for the exact same thing. Not necessarily a porn site, but a site that can host an adult-oriented site that can handle subscriptions and security. I know nothing of these things... Thanks! -P- Jul 17 06 05:51 am Link YOu might want to check out the forums on www.oprano.com It's a site devoted to adult industry webmasters and producers but they have links to some of the best and most reputable content-neutral hosting sites. Scott Jul 17 06 07:07 am Link I thought godaddy.com was okay with posting nudes (not porn) ??? I was going to go through them. Am I wrong??? Jul 17 06 07:10 am Link I always found this site helpful: http://www.findmyhosting.com/ Put in criteria & it'll suggest potential hosts. Several have policies about this sort of thing. It is definitely best to make sure your host is okay with your content before you commit. Jul 17 06 09:04 am Link Dream host is not only one of the least expensive/most available and most responsive to customer requests I've ever been able to find, but their TOS also contains no terms prohibiting nudity or pornography...only what would be illegal...such as child pornography. So long as it is legal to take pictures of and show, it's legal to host with them. The above is a referrer link, and they have a great referral program which does give me a benefit, so I'd appreciate anyone who is signing up with them use it. Thanks so much. -James Jul 17 06 09:39 am Link Sara Danielle wrote: their TOS is a little vague on this matter: GoDaddy.com TOS wrote: Basically it says *to me* that they reserve the right to cancel your service if anyone anywhere has any sort of problem with what you're posting...including an ethical/moral problem. GoDaddy.com TOS wrote: So if you're planning on using their cheapest services that are ad supported, you can't have anything pornographic, obscene or excessively profane...which, can be almost anything as well. Jul 17 06 09:49 am Link Thanks to everyone! Good stuff. ;c) Jul 17 06 11:32 am Link www.westcoasthost.com tell them Nicoletti referred you. I knwo these guys personally and host my personal site there. It offers the best support and utilities. Its also not windows based so it runs so much smoother with less glitches but you would not see the difference in the interface. The CPanel management interface is great and it supports FrontPage extensions as well. I wish MM would use them! (lol) They have redundent back ups so no chance of losing your data and if the server goes down it switches to another server with a few minutes so you don't really have down time. The host a lot of shopping cart sites so they have to be up and running smooth all the time. Nicoletti Jul 17 06 11:45 am Link www.westcoasthost.com tell them Nicoletti referred you.

Nicoletti Jul 17 06 11:50 am Link You can try looking on http://www.xbiz.com They provide links to all the most popular/reliable adult friendly hosting, billing, etc. Jul 17 06 01:02 pm Link eboundhosting.com handles adult material without worries except for the usual child porn, hate material, spamming and copyright infringment, check em out, I have been with them for about 2 years now and the couple of times I had to call them (nothing major) they answer the phone or you can query online with a normal response time up to 1 hour or so. They are UNIX based and handel all kinds of plug in and scripts. Jul 17 06 03:10 pm Link DHD Media. http://www.dhdmedia.com/ I host my eroticphotography web site with Itsamac.

Hosts adult sites and porn. Never had any downtime since I've used them which has been over a year now. Everything you could ask for is available in your control panel. ie blogs,shopping carts, etc. etc. Customer service is quick and reliable whenever you need them. Jul 17 06 11:33 pm Link I know of another student who was in my class has a site called www.zombieporn.net. Her site isn't up yet, but if you go there you'll see the name of the company that is hosting her website. And yes, she has adult content on it. Viewed her work in class with the rest of us students.
