What service do you guys prefer for your websites. I know there are freewebs and angelfire. Someone mentioned sites.google as well but which one gives the most.

Is that even legal to ask for a credit card like that?

I've used hostmonster (which I'm pretty sure is the same company as bluehost) and they're fine. Never asked for a picture of my card though....
Or you could host your own with something like DYNdns.

dunno if its legal but they havent charged it since the initial payment so i guess they are legit. bluehost are a well known company too. ive heard good things about hostmonster too. dyndns (or contacting your isp and asking for a static ip - a lot of them offer this) is a good option too especially if you have something like a raspberry pi lying around

I use blue host as well. I dot think they asked me for the credit card photo.
I've had no issues little downtime and the times I couldn't figure out what to do they were pretty helpful

So it seems bluehost is pretty good seeing as the majority of you use it. But I would like to see if there is other alternatives. I dont want to get started on a website only to find out that there is a better option. Thank you for all of the responses so far though.

Damn, use a comma sometime.

It might be a way to stop people using credit card numbers that were stolen online.

Sure it is, if you're uncomfortable with it, you just don't use the service... I think there are better ways to accomplish the same thing, however.

Very good point.
