Free and Paid Hosting

gamestriker · Apr 17, 2005, 02:42 AM

I'm looking for some good webhosting services. I hope that in the future I can possibly host my website by myself, but for now, I need to find somewhere to host it. I'm still building my website at the moment, but I want to start looking for some space now. I prefer to have free hosting that lets me use my own domain and that has PHP support, but I'm open to all suggestions.

I appreciate your help.

good luck finding PHP support with a free host.

Only free hosting is if you do it yourself. Which really isn't free in the end.

I use dreamhost.com
You can get 2400 MB and 120 GB per month for less than $10 a year if you enter the code "777".

Did you mean to say less than $10 a month or is it really less than $10 a year?

DreamHost is far more than I need (maybe in a few decades when I'm a multibillionare

) but Surpass hosting's Standard plan seems like it would just enough overkill so its not too much (Not sure if I worded that well enough

).

I also found a free one (www.100webspace.come) but it seems sketchy ("too good to be true") so I was wondering if anyone had heard of this one or knew if it was any good.

I appreciate the help.
