Hello, I am trying to host my local website made with wordpress. I have a .me domain, recently i tried to host it on github pages which is for static sites and doesnt work with wordpress, I am trying to find a good host with more than 500mb of storage and also reliable, i have come across www.freehosting.com. But i have no idea on how to do this, youtu.be/rdH1jRiDHfs this video is showing how to install wordpress on freehosting but he is doing it with the online wordpress, i have local. Will "All-In-One WP Migration plugin" work with something like that? Its a plugin which imports your local site online. I use windows and my website is 460mb total. Any suggestions will be appreciated!
Thank you,
 
You have two options:
- Download,install and configure all of the components needed by WordPress: HTTP server (Apache), SQL database (MySQL), PHP for your OS. Not abtocketbsvience, but not for novices;
- Get a preinstalled, preconfigured virtual machine image, and install it into your PC. You'll have to configure networking and port forwarding.
