Free Web Hosting with Free MySQL Database

These are free web page hosting sites that offer free MySQL databases to use on their web server. The My SQL databases are useful in conjunction with PHP or CGI scripts for running web applications on your free website such as phpBB message board or PHP-Nuke (a web-based news publishing and content management system). "MySQL" is a very popular "open source" database, which means that that unlike most other database servers, there is no expensive licensing fees for the web hosting company to use it. MySQL databases are known for speed and reliability, and its great popularity makes it easy to find MySQL tutorials, support, and scripts. Generally the free web site hosting service will provide an already installed phpMyAdmin script to help manage your free MySQL data base.
