Rules and Requirements
In order to be hosted here at Faery Circle Host, you must abide by a few simple rules. Please read this section
thoroughly before applying.
- I am open to hosting any sort of site, be it a personal site or a fan site. If you want to host something that will take up a lot of bandwidth, such as a message board or fansite, I should be interested in the site. Fanlistings should also preferably relate to my interests. If you want to know a bit more about my interests, check out this list.
- You must be a fairly decent web designer. You should know how to use HTML/XHTML and CSS. PHP is a plus but isn't necessary by any means. Please make your own layouts, and don't use premades. Gifts are fine, but please try not to use them all the time.
- You must provide a link to me on your main page! It doesn't have to be a huge obstrusive banner, just a text link or small button.
- You must know FTP or be willing to learn. If you are having trouble figuring FTP out, I can help you. It's not too difficult.
- I will not host sites that contain mp3s, porn, hentai, or illegal content of any sort. Things that will use up my bandwidth very quickly, such as streaming videos, are out as well.
- Please stay in contact with me, be it by AIM, MSN, email, Livejournal, or just commenting on my blog. I would also be very appreciative if you joined Faery MB, the FC Host boards.
- Your site must be updated at least once every two weeks. If you go on hiatus, let me know and put up a sign or notice of some sort on your page.
- You must make frequent back-ups of your site. I will try to back-up everything when I can, but I cannot garuntee that, in the event of being hacked or the server crashing, I will have a recent back-up of your files.
- Be literate. Everyone makes spelling and grammar mistakes occasionally. I know I do. But please, please, try to type in a way that I will be able to understand what you've written!
- You must have some sort of content up on your site within 2 weeks. If there is nothing but a "coming soon" page after 3 weeks, I will delete your account.
Listing all these rules makes me feel cranky and cold-hearted, but I'm afraid I need to have some guidelines, and I can't open up the hosting to
anyone, regardless of talent, behavior, and literacy. :/
