What is Free CGI Hosting?

Free CGI Hosting is a free web hosting service that supports CGI (Common Gateway Interface), an interface standard for executing a server-side script or program to generate dynamic content. CGI programs, which are designed to accept and return data, are the most common way for web servers to interact with users dynamically. Many HTML pages that contain forms use a CGI program to process the form's data once it has been submitted. Another common way to provide dynamic feedback is to include scripts or programs that run on the user's machine rather than on the web server. CGI scripts are usually written in Perl, Python, C or C++.
