A few things to know.
Clear answers about the free plan, how you can build, and what happens when you need more.
Is the free plan really free?
Yes. x10 Basic costs $0, has no trial clock, and does not require a credit card. Paid upgrades are available, but optional.
Can I install WordPress?
Yes. WordPress is available through the one-click app installer, alongside 300+ other apps including Joomla and MyBB.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. Bring a domain you already own, or start with a free address on .x10.mx, .x10.bz, or .elementfx.com.
What support comes with a free account?
Free support is community-based through the x10Hosting forums and Discord. Dedicated tickets with our in-house team are included with Premium hosting.
Do I choose how to build during signup?
No. WordPress, templates, and custom code all begin with the same free account. You can decide how to build after your account is ready.
How many free hosting services can I have?
Free accounts are limited to 1 basic hosting service per account.
We've been the free host since 2004.
Free hosts come and go — x10Hosting has been here for over twenty years. The free plan is still the front door, and it still doesn't need your credit card.
