" Ha sido imposible encontrar la página solicitada. Inténtalo más tarde"
Means this: "It was imposible to find the requested page, Try it later" as you could see they don't get any profit from that. They don't redirect, etc.
About Terra, It's the ISP used by 80% of spanish surfers and as HQ said, they are the owners of the biggest network in the world, including terra, tripod, lycos, plus several telecoms around the world, including Deutsche Telekomm, Telefonica de España, Telefonica de Argentina, participation in Bell Atlantic, participation in AOL and more than 70 TV channels around the world.
Think on it, that bandwith it's nothign for them, think on sponsors givng away sport cars, id they don't care it's because they got much more profit. When you offer something for free, it's because advertisement, not to get profit directly from it.
Another point, terra started as telefonica internet department, Telefonica was the first abnd only spanish goverment company for years untill spanish allowed more companies to start in that biz and made telefonica a private company. All phone lines in Spain were built by them. Their main point is to get the whole spanish language online bussines (counting ppl, not resources, is almost as big as the english one). So their terra.es portal got tons of income from their front page advertisement and even loosing money, they main point is to get future customers.
And the most important thing is this: Their free hosts it's only for their customers and they DON'T ALLOW PORN at their free host!!! but as old goberment company, they got tons of lazy guys working for them, almost as many boss than workers (mybe even more) so they move so slow, takes ages even to close a CP site, etc. Sad but true. But there is a new law in Spain, really hard against the online bussines, so Terra will close porn sites faster now as they could be sued by the spanish goberment.
