Even after opening free signups twice per day, instead of once per day like the last 19 years, free accounts are still filling consistently in only a few seconds in both time slots. Since the stability of Johnny is still doing great so we're going to increase the number of accounts we give away each day. As long as the uptime and speed of Johnny stays good we'll continue trying to give away as many accounts as we can support each day.

Both Johnny and Tommy now have fully licensed Softaculous available to everyone to install the latest version of 459 different software packages with just a single click. If you're not familiar with Softaculous it automates the installation of most popular software with the latest version, and can help you easily stay up to date as well. Since we offer free hosting we attract a lot of people who are new to web hosting, and installing some software can be very confusing if you don't know what you're doing. With Softaculous you just pick the software, enter a few variables, and click install. When we switched control panels we canceled our Softaculous subscription because Plesk comes with a built in software installer, but after using it for a few years we found it to have very out of date software, and not very many options. We recently reached out to Softaculous and they agreed to give us a non-profit discount to help us fulfill our mission to provide high quality, free or low cost hosting options to students, small businesses, and anyone who can't afford paid hosting. We hope you enjoy it. Let us know how it works for you if you test it out.
