    I need a hosting service which is free for first 2+ months. After that if i find it's worthy(my site income and hosting package) i can continue with paid hosting.

    My Requirement:-
    I have done domain flipping,But I am new to this hosting and site development so i will love to start with wordpress and try to gain traffic and earn some something .

    After few searches i have found hostgator providing 1 month $0.01 and 1&1 is giving 12 months free on "Great for family or hobby sites" package but lil confuse If I register with them. Do I have to pay anything else in begining , and is it possible to transfer my hosting to other paid provider if i didn't like there package.

    Thanks.

    You need to read through the terms of Hostgator and 1&1 to answer your questions.

    Why not just go with Wordpress.com to start with. If you can garner some traffic, you can either migrate to a paid host or sign up to use your own domain name with your Wordpress.com hosting.

    Anyway, what kind of site is it? Maybe I can help you out. You only need a Wordpress backend right?

    You can also try few hostings who offer 30 days money back guarantee, So if you dont like the service you get refund and it comes to one and the same of getting free hosting. Would not prefer to go with free hosting offers.

    Free for first 2 months? believe me, but you can't expect any sort of reliability with free hosting.
