    Hi
    I have a blog on wordpress and i want to host it and give it a .com domain name, but i want to try with a free host service website just to be familiar with control panel as i am just a beginner.
    Thanks

    What free hosting got to do with domain names? to answer your question it will be better if you google for a free hosting that supports WP. all this assuming you got your .com domain name already.

    Good luck

    I say i will get a domain+host after i test with free service, is it difficult to understand ??
    And better is to keep your answer if you will just told me to "google it". I want people who had experiences with good free hosts compatible with wordpress as i have to buy a template to use it after. I hope you will understand.

    This is in the wrong section. Regardless of what you're planning to do in the future, at the moment you're looking for a free webhost.

    To answer your question, try byethost.com
    They don't use cPanel for their control panel but it's still a good one. It's called Vista Panel.

    Exactly! There is a hosting section where your question can be answered more accurately.

    www.freehostia.com and www.eu5.org are too good bannerless hosting services with PHP/MySql support, both using custom control panels, but if you google "free hosting cpanel" you can find many others offering such control panel if needed, since it has either Fantastico or Softaculous for quick Wordpress automated installation.

    megabyet.net and x10hosting.com are good too

    but x10hosting.com problems that if your traffic goes over 200 visitors per day,
    your website will slow down! :s

    Thanks for the help, yesterday i found x10hosting.com and i am using it now and like it but it's a little slow even without no visitors, it have cpanel like you say + fantastico, i installed wordpress and am a little familiar now with it. I will just use it for a week until i use a paid hosting service.

    I've tested many free hosts - for me freehostia.com was the least problematic. And zymichost but lately they've been quite slow...

    I agree. Freehostia was an awesome host for me. The only problem I had was with their limit for MySQL databases and queries.

    Have you already registered domain name?

    There are many free web hosts, try to do a search via Google.
