Get Free Website for Your Blog

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

Many still using free blog service such as blogspot, myspace, etc. Want to get your own domain name? eg: yourname.com

Many blogger just ignore it or not really understand how. All these reasons stop blogger to get their own website name.

In my opinion, I think money investment is the first reason. Second is don’t know how to maintain.

How to Get Free Website ?

Yes. It is free to get your own domain name (.com) and web hosting. Of course it is only free for serious blogger.

HyperWebEnable is the first company that provide really free domain name and web hosting I came across. Any other provide the same service? Please let me know in comment. Request a free website for yourself while it is still available.

If approved, you get a domain name of your choice (eg: abc.com), 1GB web hosting space, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited emails account, script of your choice (eg: blog, forum) and no hidden fee. You can even monetize your website to make money! (more…)
