I am currently not looking for a host. I have closed down Akai Hana tutorials. Feb. 2010
If you reached this page it is because my host is closing down. That is my reason for looking for a host.
I am only using this page to inform potential hosts to review and consider me to be their hostee. Think of this page as my resume. ;P
This page tells you what I will be using your space for and what I offer on my site when I had it open.
So, please read the detailed information if you are reviewing me as a potential hostee also view sample works at
the bottom of the page for an idea of what I will be using as my content. And if you are interested in hosting me than contact me. - Crystal

I decided to close my site down and leave my host |
What you are hosting: A resource site. Graphics and tutorials with anime related site layout.
What I know/have: Enough coding that allows me to run a site... which includes HTML, CSS, basic use of XHTML, PHP & JAVASCRIPT. (If I had to rate my coding skills 7/10) FTP program or webFTP is ok too. Capable of designing/coding own layouts. Capable of using the following programs CS3+ photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign and other design programs. Basic use of news management software, Cutenews or Fusionnews.
I will: I will agree to the host's rules. Put the host's link on every page. Only upload the images for the site layout and pages. I use other sites for image/file uploads.
I will NOT: Use your hosting space to gain any profit. Upload music, videos, graphic images, download files or anything illegal.
Updates: I try to update once a week but I'm looking for a host who will allow me to update once a month.
Moving in: At this moment I've been really busy with school. So I will need lots of time to move in. Minimum of two weeks please.
Keeping in touch: It depends. I'm really bad at this, especially if I have school.
Hits: My stats show me that I have good days and bad days. I have checked other hosting offers and some want a certain amount of hits. So, I will not post #s for visitor hits or page hits on my stats section (below). I don't want a host who is after hits.
Hiatus: I take random hiatus' that don't last more than a week. I won't tell you if it's only a week. I will if it's over a week.
What I want/looking for:
A subdomain, http://mysite.yoursite.whatever
Enough Space (More if needed)
Enough Bandwidth (a month)
Reliable, Patient, supportive, helpful host
*optional- a host who is willing to install whatever they offer
A host that will keep their site up for at least two years. It's sad to have to look for a new host.
I prefer to be hosted by someone who has a site that is anime related in one way or another, even though my site doesn't have much anime on it anymore.
After all this is said. If you still haven't left this page yet and are still interested. Contact me. I will look through all offers and I'll only go with what I consider the best offer/option. I apologize if I inconvenienced anyone.
