OK, seeing that FileFront is going bye-bye (something I'm quite pissed about, but that's another story), I've looked at terms and conditions on my own website's hosting service and found that they are rather non-specific about how much of a website is used for files as opposed to HTML, and that they usually offer warnings when they think a user is pushing it, so here is what I'm going to do:
- I'm going to first clean up my own website (which badly needs updating anyways) and remove all the old junk cluttering the server
- Seeing the hosting plan I have has lots of support for multiple user accounts and such, I'll research - again - how to set up accounts for others, something I'll find out about in the next week or so
- I can try gradually allowing people from here to open accounts and upload things to my website, and,
- We can just see how it goes. If I get warnings, I can taper off and put limits on how many installers are up at a time.
My hosting plan says "unlimited" for storage space and bandwidth, although it also talks about that being within reason, which isn't specifically defined.
If it seems to go OK, I can hopefully later add sections for Mac and Linux installers, depending on what happens.
