.../> What Is It?
Bravenet.com has been around a long time (1997 to be exact) I have been using some of their services for a few years now. There aim was/is to provide the average Joe with the best free web tools going. On their site they state they are one of the top 50 visited websites worldwide and have 7 million registered users.

...services you may have a bravenet.com advert showing on your page for some of the services.This ranges from a text links to them on a guestbook or a small button next to hit your counter for example.
Have to have a different account for each website you use there services on. It would be really handy if you could say have more than one guestbook for each of your sites so you can check them all at the same time rather than having to log in for ... more

UPDATED 9th October 2001 Hi, just thought I'd like to let you know the latest, Bravenet are still offering the vast majority of these free "Webmaster Tools", actually they are still offering them all, apart from Human-Click, to use this now you are required to upgrade to the proffessional version, which will put you back a massive $249.00! As, you can imagine, I won't be doing that...Update Ended. ------------------------------------------------------------- ...
...so, do you want to know where to get the BEST and easiest to manage web-master add-ons and extras available? Well pop along to “Bravenet.com”, and you’ll see.

Brave New Web

Advantages: Good range of highly customisable tools all available for free
Disadvantages: Haven't found one yet

The main problem with writing an opinion on this site is how not to bore everyone with all the intimate details of what the site has to offer, because it offers a lot and all of it is pretty good. The only way I can think of to do this is to limit my opinion to some of the services on offer to web site owners. This is not to say that the unlisted tools are any worse or less useful so to get a full list go to www.bravenet.com for yourself. The first ...
...that they can see who is viewing there site. The instructions on how to install the a counter is very straight forward and the number of different appearances and options is very good. You can even have differnet counters for different areas of the site if you really want to. The counter can also be altered once it is running and information on visiters can be protected or available to anyone. The bravenet logo is pretty small on your page and you ...

Brave Bravenet

Advantages: Some great looking hit counters and an excellent level of support and help both from Bravenet and Bravenet users. Impressive range of services for the sake of taking 90secs to register with them.
Disadvantages: Limited customisation across the services - there is so much more that can be customised.

Bravenet are one of the best remote host services around, not least because everything they do is free and all you do is sign up for an account, choose which services you want to use, put the supplied HTML code on your page, upload it and there we go. Extrememly easy. One user name and password grants you a guestbook, forum, greeting cards, mailing list, email form (for things like "Contact Me"), an FAQ database, mini-poll, votecaster and loads ...
...services are all run externally at Bravenet and there is no need to have CGI access on your webspace because everything happens at Bravenet. This is much better than downloading loads of scripts to run locally because its easier for novice users to copy and paste some HTML into a web page (though some total newbies have problems even doing this, but let's not knock them, we were all new once). Because this is a free service, there are adverts all ...

Brave the net with Bravenet

Advantages: Hige range of webmaster resources for free
Disadvantages: None

In the process of setting up my website, I began to wonder how to go about adding all those nice little gizmo’s and gadgets that lots of sites seem to have. I wanted a guestbook and counter and oh one of those voting survey things. I didn’t have a clue about how to find these so started searching the web and learning more about these extra’s. The first thing I found out was that I was actually looking for “remotely hosted” ...
...hosted) you can’t have your own CGI scripts. If I had done some more research I could probably tell you what CGI means but for now, suffice is to say that it’s a certain type of computer language that most freebie website hosts don’t allow for security reasons. However – this doesn’t mean you can’t have extra’s on your website – that’s where Bravenet comes in. I stumbled across Bravenet late ...
