Free 1 Year Domain Name & Web Hosting for Students from Digiweb.ie

WIZWEB

Well I've leeched enough from this website and now it's about time I contributed!

Digiweb.ie are offering a free domain name and a years free hosting for 3rd level students. They are a well established company with decent reviews. (I don't work for them) I even hear rumours that boards.ie might be hosted by them!

Admittedly I have not yet availed of this offer myself.

Total Value= €56.83

I signed up for this 2 days ago, got the email verification and replied to it but haven't heard anything since...

Has anybody else got their account details?

TPD

Thanks, must try it out.

They might have to verify every application with each college I suppose.

Isn't the college branded email address the verification system they use?

Good to hear. Just checked my email and my account was set up at 17:04 PM.

Think you might have motivated them!

I got mine fairly quickly, i applied yesterday and got the second email today, i did apply after 5 though so you can understand why it wasnt sorted until today. 2gb's of space and a .net address aint shabby for sweet **** all thanks to the OP

Gauge

Anyone who already has an account from last year try to re-apply for a new one yet?

i've got a coup;e of websites here http://www.110mb.com if you want an alternative

To all the people who signed up around this time last year this should be some good news http://hosting.digiweb.ie/news/

Oh yeah I should mention that as the applications are being processed manually to make sure no naughty spammers sign up all the applications get done in batches so if you do not hear a response after you verify your e-mail account give it a few days and you should receive your login details as your batch is processed!

For all the students who signed up last year we have great news! We shall be renewing your domain and package for another year free of charge!

How do they if you're still a student this year? Surely some people would have been in final year.

And tbh, I think I set up wordpress and that was it, haven't used it at all, might get around to it this year though.


EDIT: Yep, I should really update things a bit.

Gauge

Woohoo! I really like my domain name, won't have to worry about losing it now.

TPD

Got mine too. Must get designing a site now...
