Where is the best place for free web hosting if you have a domain name that is already registered?

[Reece]

I already have a domain that I have purchased and I am now looking for some where to host it for free?
Any help appreciated

I think you're going to have to pay. I've never seen a site that allows free hosting of domains. However, some hosts aren't that expensive. I set a site up for a teenage group last year at serversea.com for $25 a year and it included many services.

go to http://www.freewebspace.net they have hundreds of hosts for you to look through and they are rated as well. They have an advance search option wich allows you to cater to your needs (PHP< CGI<Control Panel<etc. I am sure you can find what you are looking for there. Best of Luck!

If your current internet provider is Earthlink, AOL, SBC Global and others which provide a homepage; you can easily FTP your own webpage designs as a new homepage. And using a redirection service such as mydomain.com or the forwarding of a parked domain name at godaddy.com, you can easily "mask" the homepage URL with a proper domain name. So in a sense, you have a working ecommerce website disguised as a homepage while still paying your normal monthly Internet access and hosting fee.

Good luck!

http://www.lbshosting.info has free hosting accounts with Domain Manager. After setting up the account you just add it to the domain manager, then submit the Name Servers to who you registered the domain.

Also you may be able to save some money on your domain name if you transfer it to http://www.domaincityhosting.com who has free hosting w/ domain purchase.

Never had any problems at all, they will help you with servers etc. control panel is easy to use.
