::Web Solution::

Gone are the days when web space used to cost a bomb. Now several companies are following business models that allow them to offer free web hosting without requiring to show their ads. These ad-free services also come with many features such as PHP, MySQL database and large web space in gigabytes. You can also use your custom domains with them. Here are some of them which I have tested myself.

000WebHost

• 1,500MB web space
• 100GB of data transfer
• PHP
• MySQL database
• FTP access
• Free sub-domain
• Facility to use own domain

000WebHost also allows you to install several blog software, wiki and CMSes with just a single click. A very handy feature if you wish to use it for hosting some blog or wiki.

Zymic

• 5GB web space
• 50GB data transfer
• PHP
• MySQL
• FTP access
• Free subdomain
• Facility to use own domain

This is the host which I would recommend if you plan to host a blog or wiki that will have lot of content. Though it lacks easy installation feature for Wordpress, Drupal or Wiki, it gives more space.

110MB Hosting

• 5 GB Space
• 300GB data transfer
• PHP 5
• (MySQL not free)
• FTP access
• Free subdomain (yourdomain.110mb.com)
• Facility to use own domain

Use this web host if you plan to host a site that does not require MySQL database. Reason -- 300GB data transfer.
