    How do you host your website on free web hosting services or free web hosting sites?

    What is web hosting? If you have a website, which is basically a collection of static or dynamic web pages and you want to make your site data public then you need a server which can store your pages in it, so that these pages can be invoked by users. You can also use your system as a server to host your site on your own computer. But you have some limitations when you host your site on your own computer as follow: 1.

NFC is more than that in some countries. It is about to replace your debit and credit cards with your mobile phone.
