Why dont you go for managed DNS service, with managed dns service you can enjoy domain freedom you can host with any were, across the world. mostly managed dns service takes 5 minutes to get the NS live.

I am trying Max4web managed dns service from past one year without any problem and it supports 5 minutes updates with 2 domains per account capacity, I paid 1900 to get this service for 2 domains.

i do not want to pay anything initially.if the response is good only then i will shift the entire thing to a dedicated server.

if the response is only lukewarm,i think the free hostig is good enough.just will keep regular backups!!

Whats the size of your website total...? i mean how much MB Max4web having 25 MB free package with 1 mysql database with 50 MB max. Just try it i don't have any personal experience with free hosting because i am having paid service but their response is great.

Read reviews about rack111.com here :

It maybe just the subdomains that are casuing the problem. But, it is better to be on your guard.

all the above sites i have checked.but the thing is they do not have php safe mode off,which is one of the most important things i needed.thy all require a special request,then they will have a look at the material,and maybe then turnit off..
the sites i mentioned have php safe mode off.

Freehosting is not reliable, earlier i used to use 50megs.com for hosting my blog, but frequent downtimes,lots of errors, forced me to shift to a paid hosting.

i shifted to paid hosting in month of jan, it has been 30days and uptime is 100%.

So better spend some money and move to paid hosting. these days its really cheap
like Rs.500 per year

^^ there is nothing like free hosting.
These companies have many strict rules so you cannont do whatever you want. You cannot host images on these hosts. Most of them dont allowed you create database tables host php api etc.better go for paid.

Very Well said. I completely agree to this. We Indians still get attracted to whatever things that are free.But are unaware of the disadvantages of free for example free hosting services.
