Query on Free Wordpress Hosting

Does any one know how to host our own Wordpress blog for free? I have registered a .info domain. If anyone of you know any good free hosting service where i can host my WP blog then please do suggest me.

Many Thanks

PS: I have Google'd it and found innereyes, blogsome and many turned up. But I am not sure what to go with. Also, if possible can you please guide me on how to host it or show me the path if there are any documents already

No worries mates! I have now found with the help of Google: XMGFree.com, Byethost.com, funpic.org. I have signed up with Byethost.com and one my close friend is helping me out I feel this Byethost is doing a bit as they even have flash tutorials on how to install wordpress and getting it done!

Thanks for all your precious time

you can also try freehostia.com
you can host your own domain or subdomain.
they have wordpress pre-installed, setup is very easy just like on a cpanel hosting.

Thanks for the info Vino. I tried it. But it says, "You are not allowed to sign-up. Your IP/IP range has been blocked due to abuse." Any idea what does that mean? I guess sign up with their service is allowed only for USA citizens.

I never had a problem with it. I've just try to sign up and I can access it.
Perhaps you can try to use a proxy on your browser? I never tried it myself though.

Not sure about the freehostia as I have not tried them. But talking about Byethost, they dont demand you for anything but they do place few ads on the top of your site but still it is amendable (in the sense it can be relocated anywhere in your website). We can even change our site's template/background to suit the color of the advert so that it will give a look as if it was your own adverts Lol

If you find free hosting, it's likely to come with annoying ads.
