I registered 2 internet domain names and at the moment they are hosted with freeola. However, whilst getting into this PHP and CGI business, it became clear from help in this forum that MySQL is not available. I had a look at a few sites and I came across Free2Surf.

Does anyone recommend this site?

What I would like is someone to host my 2 domain names, with CGI/PHP/SQL etc etc support, and possible a unlimited inclusive access like freeserve anytime. I am currently with Freeserve hometime.

However, money is short so thats why F2S looked good. Does anyone know how much they charge to host the domain names?

What might be a good idea is to Host the Domains from Freeola, so you can control all your E-mail, and just put a little index.php file on the Web Space with this:

header("Location:http://www.yourF2SSite.com");
exit;
?>

Then have your Web Site on F2S for now. You can use your current ISP to Upload and manage your F2S Web Site, as they don't ask you to Dial up, and When Freeola introduce MySQL for customers (They said they would like to do this when they can) you should just move your Site over to Freeola.

I've found that my Site on Freeola is a hell of a lot faster than what F2S offer, and even though they do offer MySQL, if I can help it, I wouldn't use them to host a site, as (from my expirence) it's slow.

Just something you should look into I think.
