I was going to post this in one of the earlier Cyberwings threads but since that offer (for $3.90/yr hosting) is no longer valid, I figured it would be inappropriate.
Anyway, as posted on their web site, Cyberwings has now completed orders up through May 15 (about two weeks ago). They should complete the rest of the orders this week. I would assume they will be back to a "2-3 day" turnaround time for new accounts starting next week as they have previously done.
Now, here's the good news. As mentioned a few times in previous threads, Cyberwings is once again offering individual (level 1) host plans again along with their other plans as stated on their web site. The individual host plans range from $3-$60 PER YEAR (or $5/month at most).
Unfortunately, as I previously stated, the $3.90/yr plan is no longer valid; instead the price is $7/yr for that same plan, which is still hot, I believe. Quite a few members of AT signed up, I'm sure, and for those that missed out on the earlier deal, this may be the closest thing you'll get to a second chance for now.
UPDATE 5/29: Cyberwings has a promotion that offers a "buy 1, get 1 one free" on all individual hosting plans. They don't mention how long this promotion will last though.
UPDATE 5/31: This deal just got a little sweeter. Apparently, if you order now and before they remove the text explaining this offer from their web site, they will DOUBLE your space and give you an additional 50% of bandwidth for both your paid plan and the free additional plan.
UPDATE 6/2: From now until they remove the text from their web site (which might be this afternoon), all individual hosting plans will receive DOUBLE the bandwidth instead of 50% additional bandwidth. That's on top of the "buy one, get one free" promotion.
So if you purchase the infamous plan 5, this is what you should receive for $7 for the entire year:
Two (2) hosting plans, each with
220MB storage
12GB bandwidth
As usual, the price you pay when you sign up is the renewal price year after year (unless, of course, you change plans). One last note that I have to mention; this deal is only available if you purchase using PayPal. That might put off some people but I wanted to make sure you knew about that requirement.
UPDATE 6/3: Thanks to Mr.Diggler, providing update about the chat room specials that will occur tonite.
UPDATE 6/5: I just found out that Cyberwings is having another chatroom extravaganza sale from now until midnight EDT. If you have a favorite iRC client, it's probably better to log into the #cyberwings channel instead. Full details of the sale will be constantly updated during the sale at their web site.
UPDATE 6/6: Updating for a couple of things. There are new prices for the individual hosting plans which I thought were only good for one night (updated thread title). Second, there's once again, another chatroom extravaganza sale so check it out if you have some time.
