Feature: Host Your Domain with Free Apps

Want your very own web site address, but don’t want to mess with pay-for hosting packages or server configuration? Today you can buy a domain name for around 10 bucks a year (or less) and map it to a variety of free web-based apps for no-mess and no-cost hosting. Typical commercial web hosting starts at around $100 a year and comes with clunky webmail and apps you have to set up yourself. Instead, you can have a full-featured web site with multiple spacious email accounts, blog or static web page hosting, and other services for free. You don’t have to lease server space or run your own server to have your own URL. Let’s take a look at how you can set up a complete domain name backend for free.

I found out about free hosting packages fincluding freewebs
from Lifehacker and hours later a student told me she had used this
successfully for a web design project so I am going to get my ITGS
students to try this out.
