How to host a Dynamic(PHP) website for FREE | Infinityfree (2020)

hey there this is Kemal and in this video we're gonna see how to host a dynamic website for free so let's get this started before going further let me clarify a few things for you when it comes to websites we have two types of websites the first one is a static website and the second one is a dynamic website so what is a static website a website which is created using the front-end part leaving the backend is known as a static website so in a static website we use HTML CSS and JavaScript without any of the database integration when it comes to a dynamic website we use the database as well so we use language like PHP for scripting and MySQL for the database and in this video we're gonna concentrate on the dynamic part but if you want to see how to host a static website on github for free forever then check out the link in the description below moving on let's now actually see how to do it open your favorite browser and type in infinity free open the first link so this website provides us with free unlimited web hosting there are paid versions as well but the options that they have are different and we do not require that the free version is more than enough for us so sign up for an account here once you're done do the storing they'll gonna send a verification email to your Gmail account so verify that once the verification was done you will be redirected to this page and as you can see here we have an option to create an account and if you look at the bottom you have the option for number of active accounts and as you can see the number is 3 that means you can run three different domains simultaneously so for now let's click on create account so this is the page where you have to actually select if you want to use a subdomain or you wanna use a custom domain so if you already have a custom domain name with you you can use that by using the name servers that they have provided or you can use a subdomain which is actually free so you're gonna get your domain name dot app easy calm or RF dot Gd you can use any of these ok for now let's go to subdomain so I'm gonna name mine has a kid good official so then click on I'm not a robot so now your account has been created so click on View client area ok so these are the details which are going to be very useful for you right now as you can see our account is being set up so refuse the page after few minutes so it's going to take usually around one to two minutes so after it's done you can refresh the page and this message will disappear on the right hand side we have the ftp details so if you want to establish an FTP connection to this website and transfer your files through that connection then you can use these you have the username password and hosting meanwhile let's go to the control panel you have to click on I approve once that is done it's gonna open the cPanel for this website so here you have the databases and PHP myadmin so for now let's set up the database let's create a database here click on create database all right so now these other it is that you have to input in your database script ok so let me open a dummy project to showcase how it's done alright so I haven't probably dope in here so this is my project and in that I have a database file so here I'm going to provide the hostname the username password and Rita based name so here you have the username right just copy this and paste it here and the password for this is gonna be your v-- panel password so this is the password that we have here so just copy this and place that here as for the database name that's gonna be this so let's copy that and place it here for the hostname it's going to be this copy the ID and place it here so now let's upload these files to the server and you can do that using the FTP connection that I mentioned earlier or you can do it manually so let's do the manual method okay so now let's refresh the page so it's been verified so now you have the option to click on file manager so click on file manager then go to HD Docs let's remove these two files these are dummy files now let's drag and drop all the files for the website that we had created if you're having any trouble while uploading the files you can manually do that from here and you can upload a file or a folder or a zip okay so now that the files have been uploaded we are done with the setup and as you can see here let's mention that it's gonna take around 72 hours for a new domain name to start working everywhere it does not happen every time but sometimes it does take time so just open your website in a new tab and check once in a while if it's uploaded or not if not then you have to wait for some more time but at the end it will be done uploading and the website will be live okay and this is your domain name so that's it for this video guys if you have any queries please post them in the comment section down below if you like what you're watching now then please hit the like
