Thread: Hosting Forex Sites...

I have about ten sites with hostgator and tried to set up a Forex site yesterday with them. I emailed them about it today and they said I couldn't because it was against their TOS.

Where can I register and host a Forex site?

I have a forex site but it is only for info. mostly adsense. What type of site you have. Not sure why it was against TOS? I have digitalspace host for my site.

Also I may add if I remember correctly My first year was free. I found them from searching for free bannerless hosting. I have since renewed service and am on my second year.

I have a forex auto blog hosted with hostgator and have never had any issues.

if you're thinking of setting up a forex broker site, go offshore or something.

If you're thinking of setting it up with a US hosting, you will need approval from the FDA or something,,

Do you mean the SEC?

I think its the FSA or something.. not FDA...:P

Try offshore hosting..it is the best for forex..

FDA.... lol

From the hostgator TOS:

Thats really bizarre.. not sure why hostgator doesn't allow investment sites on there..... They don't allow sites about RPGs either I think whoever wrote this TOS was drinking on the job...

mate, rpg consumes lots of bandwidth consistently, even if you get unlimited bandwidth, its not -fair usage policy...

as for forex, it pretty much speaks for itself. You need proper certification and legal compliance to run a fx site, hostgator just don't want to mess in this crap.. No one's drinking on the job, its just another newbie talking rubbish.
