uuhu, hostrocket.com is a quite big hosting company and if am not mistaken , one of the hosting reviewing site has interview the founder b4.
 
The URLs are subdomains - domains don't seem to be supported - for those that are wondering (just a FYI, not a criticism).

The guy who posted that Post is the owner of HostRocket.
 
No offence, hostrocket.com had made a very good job of hiding the adddress to its ftp server. :D

If you type the link given to you in the welcome email sent by hostrocket.com to reach the Control Panel, the "ftp manager" is disabled. This led me to believe that ftp access is not allowed even though it was stated that there will be, "FREE 24/7 FTP Access"

What you should do now is not panic and cancel the account. ;)

Look at the welcome email given by hostrocket.com. Locate the area where they say something similar, "IP address" for your account.

This IS your FTP address. So, open up your the ftp program and enter in the server address which is also your IP address.

Don't enter something like,"ftp.hostrocket.com" - This WON'T WORK.

I hopes this help. :)

hmm...it seems that the free hosting at hostrocket.com doesn't provide free POP3 email service. However, i have sent them a trouble ticket and we shall know the real answer soon. ;)
 
Hiya, i had promised to give ya an answer whether POP email service is support in the free hosting and here's the reply:

Hi,

I'm sorry, that was a typo on the free.hostrocket.com page.
It was overlooked by the person who created the site and I
apologize for any confusion. Our free hosting accounts do
not offer e-mail server.

As for this, i have hosted a website using their free service and have confirm that PHP IS SUPPORTED in their free hosting.

However, i'm not so sure about Perl and ASP. But, their customer service, FAQ and the forum should answer your question very fast.

I got a reply from their Customer Service Officier within 3 Days after i sent a trouble ticket to them.

For Mysql, get it from www.unlimited-sql.com. They are currently the fastest and the best till now. ;)
 
I'll see what I can do about those links, because they flash its kinda a pain to get fixed. You can reach all of the same links from the flash at the top of the main site hostrocket.com
