I have been scouting around the world of free web hosting for ages, and I never thought to make a Free Hosting request. I suppose it could have saved me a lot of time... but Better Late Than Never!
For ages I had been using one of those co-branded hosts that offered VistaPanel hosting. VistaPanel was perfect for the skill level I was at then: my websites were made up exclusively of HTML pages and images. I had no intention of ever moving on to something more advanced.
But fate had it I wound up making more than HTML sites: I moved all my stuff onto a different free host. This one offered unlimited everything and had a lovely auto-installer which had current versions of all the scripts I needed. The only problem is it was absolutely :angry: maddeningly :angry: slow. The only reason I stayed with it for the six months I did is the auto-installer option. I had never encountered a host that provided such an excellent auto-installer. This was not Softaculous, I had never heard of that. But, I eventually got sick of the slowness and moved to...
...yet a THIRD free host! This one featured Softaculous, as well as unlimited space, bandwidth, et cetera. The only problem was that this one was almost as slow as the last. Not quite so much, but still slow. Tolerable, certainly, but I began to think I might look for something else.
Hence, I wound up here. I thought I would post in the requests section and see what pops up. Here's hoping something nice will appear.

MY REQUIREMENTS
At least 1.5 GB Disk Space or more
Some sort of auto-installer that includes current versions of WordPress and Drupal; hopefully this auto-installer would be Softaculous, but it not being so would not be a dealbreaker
CPanel 11
Preferably ad-free, but if this is not an option pop-up ads would be the next best thing
The ability to handle free domain names, such as de.vu, dk.tc, cz.cc, ce.ms, co.tv, cz.cc et cetera
Preferably no post-to-host services
Please let me know if you know of any hosting companies that meet these requirements. Oh! and as this is my first post...
