what's your experience with free hosting

Hi bordello, well i use much times the free hosting, i have a good experience, i use one account with over 1 year in a free hosting with no problems.
One time i start to pay one host, well... 2 months later the Owner close the host and i dont have time to make the backups and loose my sites and losse moneys.
If you will got a free host, try to get some host where have a forum with adsense, and you will click everyday in adsense to help the server.
When i enter in free host with post needed i donīt have any problem with then.

So i ahve a very good experience with free hosting ^^

I haven't had much enjoyment or success with the one I used.

Apart from the fact that I couldn't use the domain name I had and wanted to use on it, the amount of ad's which were placed on my sites pages was ridiculous. I perhaps should of researched them a bit better, it was a site I wanted to 'test the water' with and so thought it a good idea.

Around 20% of the time the site was down and when I emailed the tech support section, it would take over 48 hours to get a useless response.

I got my own hosting account now and would never use a free one again.

Free hosting is something really great. It really helps people to hoist their views on the web. Some may not bo able to afford it. So it is really helpful for them..

Well for newbies it's great to get their feet wet in the internet world.

But nowadays I feel blogs have taken over free hosting. As blogs are more search engine friendly plus the biggest advantage of blogs is the ease of content management. Any one without the knowledge of HTML or frontpage, dreamweaver etc can start their own site with the help of blogs

However if you are looking to start some thing professional related to business than forget free hosting and blogs. Go get yourself a paid host, designers and programmers. This will benefit your business.

SORRY, DUPLICATE POST.

If you don't mind getting your site down and experiencing crappy customer support, You can go for free hosting. Except in the case of some new hosting providers who try to get sign-ups for paid hosting by providing quality hosting and service free for one or two months, almost all of the free hosting services seem to be a waste of time. I have heard from a lot of people who used free hosting, but none of them were positive. Some put excessive banners on your site, some respond after 2, 3 days of our complaint, some can manage to give 50 to 60 uptime (even though they say 99.99%)...the list goes on like this. By the way if anyone of you are satisfied with a ad-free free hosting, please post here. I have been looking for one.

Free hosting is great to get your feet wet... so to speak... It lets you venture into website building without any great monetary investment, though hosting doesn't cost all that much these days.

Pretty good experiance with free hosts. I didn't encounter any big problems. Sometimes I did have troubles with outdated software, but otherwise great

free hosting is good from following websites..
110mb.com
789mb.com
hyperphp.com
netfast.org
funfog.com's hosting is also good..

sitesld.com and x10hosting.com dleted my account 2 times.. So i hate these servers

I would strongly suggest Kwix-host if you all are looking for reliable web hosting. They are on of our servers, which brings you the reliability of Trexhost.com, mixed with the free hosting service they offer. They do ask that you post a minimum amount of post on there forums to keep your account active, but there are no ads, etc. The owner there is Jonny, let him know James, the president of Trexhost referred you over there, he may give you a good deal. Real nice guy there
James
