Hi,
I would recommend "Host Gator" for your Web Hosting because it’s very cheap and reliable. Their support service is awesome. This company offers site building tools, application vault, web mail, antivirus, Php, MysQL ,e-commerce and hosts unlimited websites in one plan. Don’t go for free web hosting.They are not reliable. Check it out here :

It’s a standard exploit what he did to your website.
What you want to look at is the permissions of your files. 777 permissions should never be used, as anyone can write to them. So, all your hacker needs to do is access your files through PHP and overwrite them with his content. This is a fundamental system in all Unix-based machines, and the current fix is called PHPSuExec. Basically, it disallows 777 permissions and PHP is controlled under your user, and not an anonymous user through Apache.
Next, 000WebHost may work well as a hosting provider for the average personal website, however the main purpose of this service is to encourage signups to their paid service Hosting24.com (listed top on the review directory on their site). As for the quality of that service, I can’t attest because I’ve never tried it, but 4,130 results for "hosting24 sucks" compared to roughly 8,000 clients – pretty substantial indeed! Perhaps they really are "better than [their] paid hosting"…
As I run a hosting company, when I say all these negative things you naturally assume I’m overall negative about our competition, but that’s not the case. If you didn’t want to use our service IsMyWebsite.com, try out Zymic.com, X10Hosting.com, AwardSpace.com, FreeHostia.com. These are all good services that behave in an honest and ethical manner (as far as I can tell).
The one thing you want to do – it doesn’t matter if you go free, paid, dedicated, etc… is research. For example, all our hosting is provided through third parties (not direct). These companies manage the servers for us, and since we use 7 separate companies, we have the flexibility to switch out the worst performers. So, usually we spend roughly a month researching before ever signing up with anyone. We talk to the staff. We test support. We learn their history. We aim to understand WHY they are doing what they do – because that has a lot to do with the quality of service you’ll receive.
It’s important to pick a host with a good long history. Ours is 4 years, which makes us one of the oldest free hosting providers, though others I mentioned above are around that range as well. The reason you do this is because it gives you stability. You know this provider has a higher chance of being here tomorrow.
You want to consider whether you’d rather be a number, and receive overall decent service, that probably meets all your needs, or sign up with a more exclusive service, which is a lot harder to find or get into, however you usually end up with a better deal and better support (until they become large anyways).
So, what I offer you, if you can:
1) Provide a description of the end goal of your website.
2) Wait patiently while it’s reviewed.
3) Place effective advertising.
We will provide:
1) All the resources you need to achieve that goal.
2) A good reliable server. Ask for Node 4, since it has 99.99% uptime guarantee (comes from the company we use, not us personally).
3) Long term hosting so you’ll never need to switch again. If things go poorly, we can switch you within our network.
4) If you leave, you keep your subdomain (technically a SLD with our service) and we can point it at your new host.
5) Extra revenue (if any) from the advertising can be used through the credit system to get free domains, etc…
6) One on one support through our Advisor system.
DO definitely check out other services. Don’t take my word for it. It’ll be inherently biased towards our site. Even we have the occasional negative review. You can find most of them here:

So, once again, the list: IsMyWebsite.com, Zymic.com, X10Hosting.com, AwardSpace.com, FreeHostia.com. Check them all out.
