What happens if more people go here and request for your hosting? Won't the server be all filled up and the bandwidth allocation would be less and post counts for free hosting would get higher?Also, admins might not be able to approve everyone fast, since there are a lot of requests coming in. Im just afraid that HM might lose its clients if the service changes...
Iv read the reviews in clickherefree.com and it was all EXCELLENT! (I reviewed HM myself). I believe it would really attract more people here, but Im really afraid about the rush of people and the service...I hope I am wrong... :(
More power! :D

I think the idea is that more people = more advertisements clicked and thus more money. So in theory the service should sustain itself no matter how big it is.

Yes wildfire is right.
We wont compromise on quality for quantity.
We wont run out of space, don't worry.
And thanks for the review at clickherefree.

That's what Im thinking too...but it doesn't necessarily mean that if there are more people in your site that they are going to click on those ads...its not a guarantee...
Oh well. maybe thats just how the business works, sometimes you have to risk some stuffs...and hope for the best...thats how small websites started out anyway and ending up big...
I hope HM makes it to the top then...

Dont' worry iecep, we will buy more space whenever more genuine requests are coming in. Also we dont expect everyone to visit our sponsers. But what ever we get from the ads we will use to improve the services, buying more space etc. ( perhaps our own dedicated server :D )
For the time being we are concentrated in building up a nice webmaster community.
Hope that clears up everything. :)

I wouldn't mind hosting small ads on my site for the benefit of hostmatrix (I'm not suggesting that this be required for all users; but personally, i wouldn't mind as long as the ads aren't obstructive) I already have text links on all of my main pages that point back here but if there's a small banner/logo available, please point me to it.

you see... what happens with adsense is pure genious... the more impressions you average in a day, the better ads are displayed. Meaning... if you get 0-100 impressions a day... you will only see about $0.20 a click... you get 100-500, you might see $0.50 a click... 1000, $1.00 a click and so on.
So if the site gets extremely popular, the clicks will be worth more, meaning that the few people that do click, will give the site more and more money... resulting in enough money to make up for the costs of more and more servers. :D

Hmm that sounds really nice ($$) Oblivious...I may take it into consideration...hmmm do they require any minimum number of visitors to your visitors before they accept your application? (Google adsense..)
Thanks for clearing things up Creator...Im sure HM will go a loooong way!
Thanks for the unyielding service..regardless of "ad clicks!" :)
