    Hi people. I am just querying about the availability of a simple free web hosting space that's proven to work for students. I have tried Geocities in the past, but last year it was a disaster and kept posting a "server is busy" type of claim all of the time when it was working outside of the school. Has anybody got any links for alternatives or even a viable set up that I can pay for with my limited budget? I need to get some work FTP'd for students to validate etc. Any links would be helpful.
 
Cheers,
Mike Portley
