TheFreeSite.com: Free CGI Resources
In this section, TheFreeSite.com takes a look at free services that allow you to easily add CGI (Common Gateway Interface) content to your Web site.
CGI has many uses, including offering you the ability to add dynamic and interactive content to your Web pages. The only drawback to CGI content is that it is usually a complex task to implement such scripts on your Web server. (In fact, many free Web hosters don't even give you the option of adding CGI content).
However, the free services below allow anyone (even newbies) the ability to easily add CGI resources to a Web site, usually by simply filling out a series of forms). The services we review offer remote CGI hosting, which means that you don't even have to configure the necessary scripts on your server. For more Webmaster-related freebies, go here.
