I would like to put in my 2 cents here. The bullshit seems to get really deep until someone pulls back the curtain to show the wizard at the controls. There is absolutely no way that anyone, and I do mean anyone, can run a freehost off of just the 404 traffic!!!! And so you say, Tim how do you know this for a fact ?? Well by just looking at my traffic on my domains that I run tgp galleries on, I can say that there just ain't enough clicks there to pay the bill folks. Here is my stats for a partial day.

Analyzed requests from Mon-29-Oct-2001 10:46 to Tue-30-Oct-2001 08:42 (0.91 days).

Successful requests for pages: 377,686
Distinct hosts served: 154,560
Data transferred: 56.476 Gbytes

6160729: 200 OK
69998: 206 Partial content
8723: 301 Document moved permanently
533475: 304 Not modified since last retrieval
53: 400 Bad request
85: 404 Document not found

That is almost 60GB of traffic with only 138 pages that they might capture for themselves!! Anyone on this board able to cover 60GB of traffic with 138 viewers ??? And these are exactly the kind of pages that they are hosting, tgp galleries, so I can't see the traffic being that much different, but even if there was 100 X more 404's I still don't see how they could pay just the traffic bill, let alone the rackspace and hardware needed to run a large freehost!!! So if someone would please pull back the curtain, and show us how the great and wonderful OZ does it, we would all be indebted to you forever

And no I won't buy that story that they make it off the webmaster list either
