Welcome to Xisto! Since you’re looking into free hosting, I want to make sure you’re aware of our requirements. You need at least 5 posts before requesting a free hosting account. This rule helps ensure that new members are genuinely interested in being part of the community.

Also, it’s important to stay active on the forums. Your activity earns you credits (mycents), which you can use to renew your hosting or unlock additional features. The more you contribute, the more you get out of Xisto.

How to Get Started

  • Post Meaningfully: Share your knowledge, ask questions, or help others. Spam posts won’t count.
  • Monitor Your Credits: Your cPanel account shows your credit balance. Use it wisely!
  • Support the Community: Engage in discussions about web development, hosting tips, or even off-topic chats. Xisto is built on participation.

If you have any specific questions about cPanel setup or domain linking, feel free to ask. I’ve been around for a while and can help you navigate the system.

Thanks, Rob! I’ve been reading through the forums and it’s starting to make sense. The 5-post rule seems fair to prevent abuse.

One thing I’m still not clear about is how exactly the credit system works. I see people talking about ‘mycents’ — do these accumulate automatically based on post count, or is there a manual approval? Also, once I get hosting, do I need to keep posting periodically to keep it active?

Any clarification would be awesome. Really appreciate the warm welcome and the guidance!
