Blocked website for TOS abuse

Today, my site was blocked for abuse… “Your website xy was reported by 3rd party abuse detection system - SiftScience.”

What the… What abuse? For hosting my OWN created addon files, for a videogame?

How can i restore it?

Sorry, 000webhost has been intended to be a free hosting platform for students and beginners to test their skills and see how cloud hosting actually works.
We are not a file hosting platform.
If you need file hosting, either upgrade to a paid plan


Buy a VPS

Or find a file hosting provider between thousands of companies.


I have unsuspended your website, you have 24 hours to remove that content, else you will be suspended again :slight_smile:

Since when this change happened? In the last few years it wasn’t problem…

If i switch to paid service, then you’ll leave my file downloads work as before?

If you switch to a paid service, you can do that :wink:

Anything else is needed? So everything will stay as it was before, (domain, the files), or not?

Nope, you will unlock way more features!
You just have to contact hostinger when you purchase your paid plan, and they will move everything for you :slight_smile:

Still can’t reach the site via FTP connection. Server, user, pass is ok, yet “authentication error”.

Hi @kiskocsog!

The FTP works fine for your website. The credentials are these:

• host: files.000webhost.com
• username: dmtqhm
• password: your website password
• protocol: Plain FTP

If you have troubles logging in, please go to 000webhost cPanel > Settings > General > Change password and try again with the new chosen password.
