Everybody needs a website, but how do you get a website and domain name without spending a lot? Easy: just find a free web host. A free web hosting company will give you a free website and a place to keep all your web site files so you can be live on the web. You can use this for business or personal use. So how do you get a free domain? Read the article and find out.

Steps

1. 
   1
   Do a search for a free web host. You can also look for free website or free web hosting; they all pretty much mean the same thing.
2. 
   2
   Check out some of the free web hosts that come up. Unfortunately, there will be thousands to pick from.
3. 
   3
   Check out the ones that are truly free. Some sites will claim to be free to show up that way on the search engines, but when you go to their site, you have to pay something or make posts or some other crazy nonsense.
4.

   Find a web host that has what you need. In other words, if you just have a small web site, don't get a web host that offers 100 gigabytes of web space. You will never use it and it will be a problem in the long run (I'll explain later).
5.

   Find a web host that gives you a decent amount of disk space, bandwidth, emails, and maybe some pre-installed applications. They will save you a lot of headaches later. If you want to install Wordpress, for example, it is much easier to find a site that has a one-click install for Wordpress instead of having to download, then upload, unzip, install, configure, etc.

   Find a site that is easy to get signed up with. Some places ask you to make 50 posts in their forums before you can even apply for a website. That is just plain ridiculous. If you can't just sign up and start creating your website, move on to a better web hosting company.
7. 
   7
   Find a company that offers a free domain available through them. Some companies offer free domains in their control panel. Make certain it is truly free.
8.

   Look for a web host that has a web builder if you need it. If you are not experienced creating web pages from scratch, sign up with a host that has a web builder. Trust me, it is much easier than making your own pages.
