Cheap and you retain full control of your domains regardless of where your hosting is.

Alternatively, what's in a name? Why not just use the ip address? It'll be as memorable as many domains available these days! Go on start a new trend.

Came across these guys who are working out quite cheap:

With any of these services I'd check what hidden fees there are for renewals and transferring a domain name to another party or host as some companies offer very cheap initial prices then sting you when you want to do something more with the domains.

Not saying any of these are culprits (haven't checked the small print) but worth looking into, to be sure, to be sure.

Has anyone tried

The basic package looks to be very good value! - like free

The drawbacks seem to be that you would have to develop the website online though - I cannot see any others - can anyone with superior knowledge enlighten me (apart from the fact that its Microsoft)

hosting

If you buy your domain name from ukreg (fasthosts) it costs about a tenner.
Then as a freebie from ukreg you can have your domain name redirected to anywhere else (you provide the link)

So then if you sign up or use an existing isp that offers free web space you can host your files for free, and get your domain name directed to them.

hope that makes sence.
