Had nothing to do so landed on bigrock.in and saw that all the plans listed here have phpBB app. So does this mean that I can get a domain name & hosting and then enable phpBB to make my own forums? :???:

Has anyone here used bigrock? :unsure:

Many hosting providers provide fantastico these days. It's not something great in any case. you can upload any script in zip file and extract it using file manager from cPanel.

BTW, if anyone want free hosting just for parking domain or trying out their site, HostZilla is good. provides 100MB. Only drawback, you cannot install your own scripts, just from fantastico

Well, SOPA exempts GoDaddy domains and GoDaddy is known for it's asshattery in the past. They still haven't officially denied their support for SOPA.

hey guys pls recommend where to purchase domain and some good hosting.

Requirements:-
domain:.com
disk space : 100MB will be enough
bandwidth: 1GB will be enough for now
most importantly I need unlimited domain support or at least 5-10 domains

My site will have this type of files other then most common(html,css,java script)
php
mysql
and some blogging(I don't know which so if you can then pls recommend this too)

so this is very basic so all host will provide but better to mention.

Hi friends, planning to buy a domain and hosting space.
I centered upon these:
domain: bigrock (a .com for 10 years @ 4890INR)
hosting: outpowerhosting (not yet planned may be the beginner plan)

Is it worth spending the above money?

Please throw in some valuable suggestions

PS: My english is bad.
