DotRoll free hosting

If you buy a domain from DotRoll Kft, you can use a 50 MB static storage space free of charge. This means that the dynamic-based system (forum, content manager, blog) cannot be operated from this repository, however, we can store our pages created in raw HTML, with editors if necessary.
