Free hosting for static websites

You know, my 7yo has been asking for me to let her create a web page for some idea she has about crime reduction. Might be a decent test case.<p>Also, GeoCities 2.0, c/d?

Nice, coralrift is slick. It does look super similar to <a href="http://staticloud.com" rel="nofollow">http://staticloud.com</a><p>I wonder how much inspiration they have taken from there. It looks like they have uploaded their demo site to: <a href="http://dane2.staticloud.com/" rel="nofollow">http://dane2.staticloud.com/</a><p>Who would be the target market for this sort of service. It is potentially quite niche. Is it targeted towards users technical enough to be able to write html, css, and javascript. But not technical enough to use say Amazon's new static web site options on S3 <a href="http://bit.ly/h1rcJ8" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/h1rcJ8</a> or github's static hosting option?

This is pretty impressive. It will be nice to see a way of adding your own domains though.<p>The video was a little hard to see though, but the simplicity of the process probably negates that fact.

I like it, very simple and easy.<p>small bug/feature is that single letter domains are not working, i.e. <a href="http://a.coralrift.com" rel="nofollow">http://a.coralrift.com</a>

I love free stuff!<p>Small suggestion: the first instruction was to "drag zipped website here", but it did not mention that I need a file exactly called "index.html" inside. Maybe change it to "drag zipped website containing your index.html here" ? I understand that it gets too long, but then, your first response to customer would be "womp womp womp".

Looks really nice for the non-technically-inclined!<p>I'll probably be sticking to github or dropbox for my free static sites though. Does this provide any sort of versioning or live editing?<p>Also, very minor, the FAQ mentions "You can upload .html, .css, .js files." but should probably include any image restrictions.

I think that in the video you should get rid of the elevator music and have someone narrating the most important points about the service, such as how it differentiates itself, what are the limits (storage capacity, etc).

CoralRift and the sites it is hosting are hosted by Dreamhost.<p>As a fellow Dreamhost customer, I'd be curious to know how it is handling the subdomain creation stuff ... Dreamhost API?
