SPACE IS LIMITED - FIRST COME...FIRST SERVED

WANT MORE WEB SPACE ???

By default, users get 10MB of space per person.
We've noticed that some of you have made MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS to get more webspace.
This is a TOS violation, and to make room for everyone who wants a site, you are limited to ONE ACCOUNT.
We are going to start cracking down on this and deleting the extra sites to make room for others.

HOWEVER

You may get an ADDITIONAL 10MB of space for your account if you agree to the following:

As you know we DON'T put ads on your pages, actually we hate ads, that's why we started this server up,
to offer websites with NO ADS for FREE ! We don't make a dime off these sites, but it's our way of giving something
back to the internet community and we're willing to eat the costs associated with surfsites exsistance.

We'll give you the extra 10 mb of space provided you place OUR LOGO for surfsites on your index page.

NO it's not a banner ad ! NO we're not going to start running ads on your pages!
YES we're trying to attract new users to surfsites !

The logo , as seen here is relatively small and you may place it anywhere it's VISIBLE on your main page.
