Hi Everyone,

I am trying to build myself a website and have decided to use a pre-configured wordpress-type theme from Elegant Themes.

However, I need to ask the guys some support questions and they keep asking me for my URL so that they can have a look at the code and assist with changes.

I am currently just testing my website by "localhost" but would love to have it hosted instead .... is there any free/cheap hosting companies that I could look at that I would be able to incorporate my theme onto ?

Thanks
Vic
 
You need a domain name. Registrations for www.za.net expire this week Wednesday, so get one before it's gone.

Then you can have a look at free hosts like 000webhost, domaincheap or others.

Could I use one of these just during my testing and construction phase ? I would not want a .net domain later on once the site is constructed ... I would like a .com site (it's a commercial website)

Yes you can use it during testing, there shouldn't be a reason not to.
 
any other places that people know of for free/cheap domain names ?
 
cool ! will check them out ... I am very new to this so please bear with me.

Can I pay for an account on a month-to-month basis and cancel whenever I want to. If I at some stage want to move to a different hosting site, can I still keep my domain registration ?
