Brinkster Offers a Six-Month No Strings Attached Free Linux Hosting Account

Brinkster today announced a six month, no strings attached, free Linux hosting offer. Adding to the announcement of low priced full featured Linux hosting made in mid-July, Brinkster is now offering customers a no obligation opportunity to try before they buy. “Often customers do not know if they have chosen a quality web host until they have spent money. This offer will allow Brinkster to prove the quality of its services,” says Jared Stauffer, President and CEO of Brinkster.

Not Your Average Free Hosting Offer
Many free hosting offers in today’s market have a limited feature set and environment. The six months no strings attached offer from Brinkster features a regular “sized” hosting account. “The free Linux accounts come with 750 MB of web space, 15 GB of data transfer, and 200 e-mail accounts,” says Ben Chambers, VP of Marketing. The free accounts can be used for personal or business use.

To further distinguish the offer, Brinkster is offering $1 domain names with the promotion. Alternatively customers can transfer in an existing domain name. International customers are required to purchase a domain name to assist with identity verification.

No Stranger to Free Hosting
Brinkster is no stranger to free hosting, having offered the free Educational Plan or it’s equivalent for nearly six years. “A lot goes in to providing quality hosting to hundreds of thousands of free and paid customers. Brinkster has spent many years developing systems, software, and infrastructure to successfully support our users,” says Jared Stauffer, President and CEO of Brinkster.

The free Educational Plan is a free hosting account that provides an ideal environment for people of various experience levels to test and hone their skills in HTML and Microsoft’s ASP and ASP .NET.
