CREATE NEW SITE
Click over Create New Site at top left of the screen, then a dialog box popup. Enter password & website name you want which will be followed by “.000webhostapp.com”. Then click Create.

This means I have created a sub domain in 000webhostapp.com, Because it for practices purpose let it be, If you want a dedicated domain like myidea.com or myidea.org, you can buy domain and web hosting.
