Tripod used to be one of the leaders along with geocities in free webpages and e-mail accounts to go along with them, however, through a series of stupid mergers the company is trying to be too much like it's counterpart, Lycos, which is defective in itself. I have nothing personally against Tripod really, I have no vendettas or axes to grind, I just know a lot about them through a lot of web experience using their free webpages and web management tools. Tripod is one of the few webpage providers that's been able to design an effective web development community, while you don't feel a ... more

Tripod is the easiest web hosting site to use, the largest and one of the fastest (Considering these services are classsed as "read slow"). But its pop-up windows containing advertisements are making me look for another web hosting company. I signed up to the site about one month ago, and as a first time user, I found Tripod an excellent site due to its partner FTP software called Trelix Web. I actually found that you could host a site on Tripod for free by accident. I did this when I bought my new computer that had Trelix Web pre installed. As I was playing around with making a web site, I ... more

Tripod was once a independent web hosting site but was recently taken over by Lycos. When I first started out designing web pages and needed web space, tripod was one of the sites I used for web space. Free web space is always good. It is a great way to get your web site online with the minimal amount of knowledge of what it takes to create, upload and maintain a web site.

There are plenty of extra tools and scripts available from complete designed web pages where you only have to add your text and ... more

I was lloking for a way of setting up my own web page and Tripod seemed a cheap (Free in fact) way of doing this. I have checked out a number of different options but none are that impressive. Tripod offer free web space and a number of tools to help you build your web site. You can access the site by ftp and upload or download files to your site. It has been a bit slow lately but they apparently moved to new servers last night so hopefully it should improve. This is a good way of getting into your own web page for nothing ... more

Having used Tripod.com for my first website because of the large amount of webspace available and the ease with which their software enabled me to create pages, I leapt at the chance to have a UK site when the UK branch opened. You get 100mb to use on your site and I defy anyone to use that much without resorting to major downloads or video clips. If you're looking to earn money from your site or simply generate publicity then Tripod offer "Pods" where you can be easily found under a relevant topic. Each month a site within the Pod is made "Best of Pod" and featured on Tripod for all to see ... more
