You could host your own

It is simple, really. =]
Use a any website hosting [example: Freewebs], and build your website like you really don’t care about the name of your website’s URL.
After that, google up Free Domain Hosting. Domain hosts make your [freewebs.com/namehere] into something like [yourownnamehere.makes.it], or any other [.] address.
Some of these site have many ads though, so always be careful in what your visitors think =]
Zoom Share or Geo Cities. Be aware some of the others will let you build a wonderful web site but if you don’t pay for the better services they offer they will start deleting your pages right out from underneath you. I have built web sites from scratch using HTML scripts. Which is not easy. And I have had them do away with my service when I didn’t pay for their paid services. Be careful! Zoom Share has no advertisements unless you add your self to a free search engine.
Get free hosting from MyMonkeywrench.com. That gets you MyMonkeywrench.com/example. If you want to get your own domain, use the URL forwarding feature of most dmain hosting (domain.com, addresscreation.com).
If you are currently a paid Internet subscriber, you are entitled to a “homepage” which often contains simple navigation and editing tools. And if you use the Netscape browser, the built-in Composer feature is a superior HTML authoring tool. You can easily generate a full-blown website as a Homepage. Nevertheless, the “homepage” URL is likely to be “http://homepage.earthlink.com/subscriber… name” and that URL can easily be overwritten via a redirection service, i.e., “mydomain.com” which allows you to link any registered domain name to “mask” another website. For example, should you type in “domainname.com”, you will be immediately transported to the homepage and the hompage URL of… name will be masked by the domainname.com. And the charge for the redirection service [even at godaddy.com] is normally FREE. Here’s a demonstration: Type in the URL window: “www.pizzanextdoor.com” which will bring up their pizza website. Take note of the domain name. Then type in the URL window: “http://home.pacbell.net/vten/1a/pizzamen… and you will see that this is the original homepage which is unmasked without the domain name!
Good luck!
If you want a short domain, maybe you nick a little money by your own domain. that very cheap, (you can buy it from Yahoo is ok).. maybe that’s about $1…$2..that will be your own domain after you buy it ! but you must get the free web first, and than you change that domain to your long freeweb name !
