In all honesty, Welcome to the real world where you need money for anything and everything (pretty much)

Its a simple fact, free stuff like hosting/subdomains that you get for free will only take you so far, you will never have a super popular site with free subdomain site. Nor would it hold up under free hosting.

As for Tekken i'm sure I can find hundreds if not hundreds of thousands of other Tekken sites out there. If you want a popular site you got to work for it, mean how do people even know about your website right now?

I can prove to you how money makes or breaks a site. I have a site www.ffximc.com I started as a modding community for english users, as there wasn't one. I had all the means to lead people there and got them there and be popuplar, as I helped with major breakthroughs for the community.

But I didn't have money, I used some borrowed hosting from my brother, and domain, it was going ok, but the host had problems/cheap/unreliable. I lost members, I got a new host came back up, converted the forum system to seditio, bought a domain, got a special deal from someone on hosting. More problems, cheap, downtime. Then when I finnaly got back up and stable it was to late most moved on, even though I was still a major player, and my site was 100% better than the others (more features etc) it came down to money etc.

So if you ever hope to have a good site, bottom line get some money, learn HTML/PHP/MySQL. Unless you can become super rich and pay someone to do everything

Now that this is way off topic already it might as well just be closed....
