Domain name and web host for free
Although I don’t recommend begin a online business this way, you may want to know how to get a domain name and a web host service for free.
Let’s see how you can do this
Free Domain name
The three most knowed web sites that you can register a free domain name are:
- Free Domanin name: Free domain names and free website hosting are gained by using points earned by showing genuine interest in a few advertisers products. You will have full DNS control of the free domainname, and you can transfer it to another web hosting company, or you can host it with their own free website hosting service;
- Free Domain Name & hosting: Apply for a free top-level domain name and free bannerless domain hosting on powerful cPanelX servers with 5 GB disk space, 250 GB monthly bandwidth, Fantastico, and full PHP and MySQL features, with no forced adverts. It is available for several international countries, though not all, and they must complete stage one of an application to get a Green Card. A credit card is not required. U.S. residents may need to complete other offers that do not cost anything (but time).
- CO.CC: is is free for personal use and there is a small fee for professional and top domains (like .com, .info, .biz, etc..)
I have been using Co.CC for a long time and I recommend its services.
Free Web Host
There are much more companies offering free web host. When I was in the beginning of my online business I always asked myself how those companies earn money offering a free service.
The answer is ads! The sites of those companies are full with ads. Some put ads in your site others (most of them) don’t.
The best site to search and compare those free free web hosts is this site: Free-webhost.
There are more than 2 hundreds of companies offering this service. So you should spend a time finding a company that best fit your needs.
I recommed Free-web-host.me that I have been using for a long time.
