Just a warning, freenom isn't very reliable, they just dismissed my domain & listed it as a premium domain on their website without any warning / information . So I lost access to my domain & now anyone else can pay a few dollars and get access to my domain and publish whatever they want.
So I recommend just to use it temporary & not treat it as permanent.

There is always a price to pay for free. This won't be an issue when you are just getting started. But once you have a name and traffic, these kind of issues popup. I can just assume so many security issues popping up.

Thanks for sharing your experience. And sorry you had to go through it.
