So I'm at the point of starting really doing whole marketing stuff, because it seems to me like nobody know what Computer Virus Simulator is and I really want to change that.

The truth is though, that I can't pay for paid webhost now so I can't use any paid solution even though I want to. The features I'm looking for from such host are:

- PHP/MySQL access, obviously.
- 500+MB of storage
- No transfer caps (unmetered traffic)
- FTP access (so I can upload custom stuff, like presskit())
- Absolutely no ads
- Reliability (i.e. it won't go away overnight or get host's ads overnight)
- Support for binding user's TLD domain at no extra costs

Anyone know of such host?

There is a good chance, that this kind of hosting don't exist (they need to live, so have some kind of business model that make them earn money). You will probably have to supress at least half of feature you seek.
You better go for a paid host. Price of paid hosting start from a couple of buck every month.

For dedicated hosting, would 50-100$ a year be too much, because you can easily find shared hosting like that. Only thing is that almost no one will offer unlimited bandwidth. Do you expect heavy traffic, because you can easily get 20GB+ monthly for the price range mentioned?

Darkhog, I have some unused bandwidth: pm me and perhaps we can work out a deal. I can't give it away for free, but I can make it cheap?

Unfortunately, as stated in OP, I can't afford ANY paid hosting now, otherwise this thread wouldn't exist. As for unmetered traffic, this isn't unreasonable question as I've seen hostings with such, even free ones.

Can you barter anything?
I'm open minded. I understand you don't have money to spare, but perhaps there's stuff you have or do that may not necessarily have value to you currently which could have value to me?

Dakhog, what do you need to host? I can give you a bit of space in a web hosting I have for the next year or so. I do have a bandwidth limit though, so that might be the only problem you'll encounter.
