Hosting

lwq

I am not sure if this is the place to ask, but would like to know where I can find free hosting for php?

I have tried a few free hosts, and to be honest they suck. I recommend you to find a host that is cheap instead, then you can at least expect that the site is up 99% of the time and that the server is configured correctly.

I cna't purchase any hosting,no budget to do so.haix, therefore must seek free host or if anyone kind enough, mind allocating a bit of free space on your server for me(for free)?I will only just be putting my blog or perhaps one or two small little scripts. 🙂 Thanks.Haha.

No budget at all? If you have a couple of (US) dollars, you could try NearlyFreeSpeech.

The site is really cool!However, I have totally zero budget(even in SGD, me from SG).So, I guess I have to continue to search for a free host. 🙂

If you are working on a Free / Open Source project, you can likely find a free host for that project that doesn't suck. Generally though, free hosting is pretty bad, and involves having lots of things like adverts all over the place.

So, what do you want to do with this php site?

Oddly enough, this isn't the worst free host I've seen:

I was stunned that they allow mod_rewrite/htaccess. No ads whatsoever.

Hmm, I just need a host for my blog(using wordpress) and just some scripts that I wrote, but since I lost most of it, then that just left my blog.

I just need a free host to access a webservice and then send the result to my PhP program on my real host.

lwq: i know you can host a wordpress blog for free on wordpress.com (hosted by the same guys that write it)

teguh123: how come you can't access the web service from your "real host"?

Haven't tried it but looks good free hosting with php email:
