The best way to find higher placement in the search engines with good repute is registering your own domain name. People will also find your site with ease. So instead of joining a free hosting service, use your own which will pay you a good dividend. You can opt any word or series of words that you like and use it after the http:// in the URL with a .com or .net, or something else, at the end as long as it is available.  

Choose A Name for your Site Choosing a right domain name for your Web site is the primary thing on your success path. The name should be explanatory and unique to your product or what your site contains and also more importantly it should be a common word so that people can remember it with ease. It will be more advantageous if a name that will also serve as a keyword for the site is chosen because the search engines will show up your site when people search for sites like yours. For instant, if your site is for your widgets from your workshop younamewidgets.com is probably your best bet for a domain name. 

When people are looking for your service or products they usualy look at the search results of some search engine. The first thing they see is the domain name.
