People are talking about designing websites whereas some people are struggling creating one. Each time I look for dormain and host,they say "pay $1 every month. I believe there's better way to do create site only if you help.thanks!

For free domains you can try my.dot.tk

For free hosts, search Google for "byethost" or "x10hosting".

Then for a beginner or small website you can use www.9jahoster.com

Gives you free domain and host with many features for just 3000 Naira per year.

Thank u bro but what's the difference domain and host?

Domain is the url address. like www.nairaland.com is a domain, while the storage where all the posted things you read and the PHP files is called host.

We host your website at cheap rate you can call 08034283159

why look for a free host when you can get cheap one

If you don't know the difference between between domain and host, you are where I was one year ago!
Its not bad news though.
Take my advice. START READING HARD.
Search for web tutorials on google,
read and practice like.. like.. a raaat
Forget anything free, get an affordable host and
make him your unwilling teacher like I made Mr. Perfect.
That reminds me I need to ask him what chat application is FREE
and is targeted for mobile phones.
Wish you all the best.

9ja Hoster is not a fraud !
These are the explanation behind hostcoal situation.

Hostcoal opt for "super alpha master reseller" when this plugin was at a beta level, unfortunately, everything works well for her except that the zamfoo reseller plugin refuse to work on her account, we opened ticket for her at zamfoo helpdesk for them to resolve her case. But she had no patience maybe because she advertised her business before setup was complete and she is eager to have it running.

She never opt for refund but threatened to blackmail if the situation was not fixed, since the issue is not the server's fault but a third party plugin there was less we can do for her while the issue is being fixed by zamfoo (the reseller plugin vendor).

when the issue was fixed, she was sent an email and she was called several times to make her know that it was fixed. Afterwards she only replied the email saying that she has gone somewhere else.

How is this a fraud ?
