Hi 'it_waaznt_me'. I regestered there by the name 'funcity'. Now whenever i enter there, the message comes 'Welcome to the world of Spymac', then it redirects me to the homepage. Now where should I go to check for my mails or my webspace or any other activities ? When I click the mail button it again takes me to the login page. HELP ME !

You should find that in the confirmation mail they sent you .. And if you are like Ice who has deleted that message then I can post it for you ... Right now I cant access email sites as they are blocked by my College's admin .. I will post it when I m at my home ..

Edited .. now confirmed

by the way ..
ur address will be :

http://funcity.spymac.net

Install a ftp client and fill this info ..
server: funcity.spymac.net
username : funcity
password : **** (ur password)


Upload files to the server .. that easy ...

Now can anybody tell me how can I get a STABLE subdomain which gives me cgi access, ftp support and above 15 MB webspace. I think i would use DOT.TK and the subdoimain to get my job done. NOTE ::: Freeservers is a good subdomain provider but it doesn't provide FTP support !

guys why don't you search for them in Google i found a few sites that are good. Tripod has cgi-bin access. but i use www.tripod.co.uk which has php and mysql. and it actually works.
search www.clickherefree.com and you can query for various types of hosting options.

I will tell u THE BEST SITES!!!

For free Domain : www.freedomain.co.nr (a .CO.NR domain -- no popups/ads except a button)

Free webspace : http://www.lf3h.com/ or www.lfhost.com ( a small google ad on top) it gives everything from FTP /PHP/SQL etc...

Telling u by experience... these r good.. aleast for being free..

I used many like lfhost, quickfox, triopd, collo, dot.tk, cjb.net , spaceports, geocities, webfreespace.. lists n lists of them..

Brinkster has stopped providing the free services.. u have to pay even for their 30 MB storage & old customers are still available...

i mean the old members can still host their sites free !

I can give a free domain if you take hosting from me .

Anyway, in my opinion, even if you get a free domain you should never go for it. It is not expensive. A .info domain is about US $ 5 per year. A .com for about US $ 12 (or may be even less!!). Its not expensive. Go for it. Then there are plenty of free or paid hosting options to suit your needs.

You may opt for a free hosting, but please don't opt for a free domain.
