FTP Manager 21. Backup Facilities Available 22. Disk Usage stats 23. Password Protect Directories 24. Custom Error Pages 25. SSH/Shell Access 26. FrontPage Extensions 27. Web/FTP Stats 28.

IP Deny Manager 46. Change Language 47. Error log 48. SSL Manager 49. 24/7 Support by Forums 50. Online Chat support That is a friggin LOT of features for a free webhost!!!! But as I said before, there's a slight catch to this goodness, you have to "earn" it. By registering and posting in their forums, you can earn "credits" based on the length of the post(I got 4.99 credits on my first post ). Once you earn 30 of those credits, you get all of those features. After you get set up, all you have to do is maintain a somewhat active status in their forums. That is a miniscule price to pay for such a great service!!! More webhosting than most people will *ever* need for free simply by talking with people! What are you guys opinions about this? ROFL, I was so excited I forgot the link. here it is
April 29, 200521 yr Author Unfortunately I couldn't find anything about that. If you do a subdomain it'll be a .com because it's a subdomain of their website, astahost.com. But for their domain hosting... who knows. It may be that you have to provide a domain name or maybe they provide you one for free or for a price. You could go the .tk rout by setting up as a subdomain at astahost.com and then getting a free domain name with the .tk extension. That way it's assured to be free. I wouldn't quote me on any of this however because it's just asumptions based on no actual information from their website. I'll check it out more and get back with you guys.
