lemonwonder 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2006 domains are never free, you prolly get a free domain or free hosting when u sign up for the other which one.Try things like Xisto, or (although i dont reccommend others) try searching Free Cpanel Hosting on google Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hype 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2006 You will never get .com domains for free or whatsoever, unless by purchasing something or what... But you could get a subdomain when registering for free web hosting... Try out Trap 17 here and you'll get what you wanted, or you can grab one you're interested by going to the link at my sig that says "free web hosting"...

Try out Trap 17 here and you'll get what you wanted, or you can grab one you're interested by going to the link at my sig that says "free web hosting"... I agree, those ads that says free domains are really just scams. I have tried to search for free domains for a long time and I haven't really came across any. As for the free sub domains, there are some, but most still demand you allow them to place an ad on your website. So basically, those are not free either. Now the next question you should ask is are there any close to free domainss, my answer is yes, there are some for as low as 2.99 dollars, but thats just for 1 year, by the 2nd year thry are usually back to usual price. So unless you want to settle for a free subdomain, better be ready to cough up some money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FLaKes 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2006 There is this website were I learned a lot about html:http://www.w3schools.com/ It not only is great on xhtml, but it also has css, javascript, and almost anything you need to get a website going. Besides having all that, it has a free exam on every subject to test your knowledge on the area. THey also write them down, very easily to read making it very clear.The almost very best part about that site is that it has online examples that you can even modify, its such a great site. I also recommend googling for it and you will find a bunch of places were you can learn html. It depends on which one you like, and which one you find easier to read.Good luck!

Mich 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2006 Hey, I bought my domain name from  http://www.active-domain.com/  2 1/2 years ago. It cost me $9.95 a year and I have paid annually. I just get a bill in the mail that reminds me that I need to renew it. I see they are advertising $3.95 for the first year now. You can choose to have them host it for you if you want to pay, but you don't have to. I have used one other host before Trap 17 and haven't had any problems with directing the pointers to the hosting site. Active domain provides you with a control panel so you can take care of this. Take a look. My site has only cost me the $9.95 each year and most of us can afford this. The trick is getting free hosting. Now that you have found Trap 17, that problem is solved. Good Luck!

husker 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2006 Trap17 is the best free hosting that I have had. I have had probably 10 other sites, but they all shut down. My last one shut down and it said something like, "Michael is an idiot and hacked our database." This service is reliable and has been up for over two years. I haven't had any problems here. BuffaloHelp and Opaque do a good job. All you have to do is post! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lyon2 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2006 I don't understand what you want, just a litle bit, so i really wish you explain it better.There are free domains and domains you must pay if you want them.Free Domains:http://www.dot.tk/en/index.html?lang=enhttp://dot.tk/en/index.htmlIn the above website, click and visit, then choose your domain like :http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/'>http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/Of course, the offer is not entirely free, you must have 90 unique visitors in 60 or 90 days, so you must have a good website to have this visitors in each 60 or 90 days, which i think is not too much.Of course, your website will have a banner, not very big, in the top of your website, but if you build a flash site, it will look cool, i tryed and it looks better then html website with that banner, but you must understand html, at least, to arrange things to look nice and compact in the end.Domains you must pay:*.com*.net*.orgThe most important domain, the most used and wanted by search engines to show their queries search results :*.comexample: http://forums.xisto.com/ or http://forums.xisto.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TypoMage 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2006 I do not want anything I just want to explain and talk about the situation. I mean what would it be like if you went to a website and it said here you go yourname.com Domain! That would be awesome if somebody did that. Or are you not allowed to? If not tell me I would like to know why no one has done this. Really a free domain. Even Xisto isn't actually free there is some sort of thing you still have to pay!Oh ya and people asking me to go to sites that cost money to get a site? What are you doing get out of these posts In case you have not notice we are all talking about FREE websites. So leave I mean come one I bet you work for the sites.(Yea I think you do) Others thanks for the help keep on posting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
