doesn't have a sub domain? For example, www.bobsmith.webs.com or www.bobsmithisgood.weebly.com.

Not that I'm aware of!

You can purchase a domain name and have it directed to the address of the free web-space.

But then this would in-validate the reasoning in getting a free sub-domain.

Correction. There is. http://www.freedomain.co.nr/ . You get a free domain ending with .co.nr (NR representing Nauru Islands). I want to know if there is a free hoster of websites. I looked on YouTube, and it seems pretty easy to host a website @ home, but I was just wondering.

You can also go to http://www.dot.tk and register for a .tk domain, or domain forwarding from a .tk domain. you'll have any domain name you want but with .tk on the end.

Example: http://www.mywebsite.tk

Not my field, but I think freedomain does provide a domain name, but to use it effectively, you still need to link it to a provider. (Which in my case, I have to pay for)

Yep, www.dot.tk is the one I know of (already mentioned by Ace) - seems pretty neat that you can get a free domain name

Yeah I might get it. Now my choices are either .co.nr or .tk. BTW, anybody else think it's funny how all these free domains or cheap domains come from these islands??? Tokelau, Nauru, Fiji, etc. It seems like it's really cheap there to buy a domain.

Yes, I have heard of that the first day the ICANN announced it. I won't be getting it though. It's too expensive, so I'll just get the .co.nr or .tk.
