Other Replys:Before venturing into signing on to any host provider, did you consider utilizing your Internet provider%26#039;s hosting services via the %26quot;homepage%26quot; supplement. Please read the following discussion which may be a less expensive alternative to spending lots of money for an outside hosting service.
Begin with setting up your own webpage as your current internet provider will provide free hosting as discussed below.
If you are currently a paid Internet subscriber, you are entitled to a %26quot;homepage%26quot; which often contains simple navigation and editing tools. And if you use the Netscape browser, the built-in Composer feature is a superior HTML authoring tool which is totally free. You can easily generate a full-blown website as a Homepage.
Nevertheless, the %26quot;homepage%26quot; URL is likely to be %26quot;http://homepage.earthlink.com/subscribe... name%26quot; and that URL can easily be overwritten via a redirection service, i.e., %26quot;mydomain.com%26quot; which allows you to link any registered domain name to %26quot;mask%26quot; another website. For example, should you type in the %26quot;domain name,%26quot; you will be immediately transported to the homepage and the hompage URL of http://homepage.earthlink.com/subscriber... a homepage URL which will be masked by the domain name. And the charge for the redirection service [even at godaddy.com] is normally FREE.
When you acquire a domain name, connect it using a redirection service [as discussed above] and submit/publish the domain name on major search engines/directories in order for Net surfers to find your website.
Good luck!

Other Replys:You really get what you pay for here. And you%26#039;re asking for a lot of which no free web host will give you. At best, you can get a free web host account with plenty of other people%26#039;s advertisements on them and limited space and no use of PHP or a limitation on what scripts and programs you can install, hard drive space and bandwidth.
Today web hosting is quite affordable. You can get web hosting for less then $5.00 a month! I have a number of friends who got web hosting %26quot;reseller accounts%26quot; that allows you to put as many other domains under your account and giving each person their own web hosting account. Just do a search for %26quot;web hosting reseller accounts.%26quot;
A reseller account is really just a regular web hosting account, and cost less then $12.00 a month. You then can invite your friends and others to buy their web hosting account from you. With the click of a button you can instantly create numerous other web hosting accounts.
What%26#039;s nice is many of these web hosting accounts have lots of the latest software you%26#039;re looking to install. I have a number of servers and web hosting accounts myself and we have a program called Fantastico that allows you to select from dozens of the coolest programs to put on your website and all you have to do is click and it automatically installs the program for you.
Good Luck!
