It’s always cool to have an idea of
having your own “website” where you
can blog, display or sell certain
products or even create an online
magazine, but what you might not have
known is that if you’re not paying for
it… you’re only renting and playing as
another site to promote ads for other
companies. Free website hosting is
ideal if your budget is small or like
most of us, non-existent. It can be the
perfect thing for a personal web site.
It can be a good choice for new
webmasters who have simple website
content and a very tight budget as a
free website hosting provider charges
nothing for their hosting services;
however, for a business, free hosting is
not recommended. The following is a
list of some clear advantages and
disadvantages of free web hosting.

Advantages Of Free Website Hosting

1. It does not cost you anything. There
are not any monthly fees, and
everything you want can be uploaded
to your website.

2. Free website hosting sites are
generally user-friendly. This can be a
good website hosting option for
newbies, who are still learning about
all this.

3. Time is not money. A free hosting
site, has no monthly fees like some of
the best paid website hosting
companies, so you do not have to feel
you are not making good use of your
money. It takes you a long time to
learn.

Disadvantages Of Free Website Hosting

1. Free website hosting only has a
limited amount of space you can use.
Free hosting accounts often do not
provide enough storage or bandwidth
for most businesses. There is not
enough room for a large website site
with many colourful graphics, some
video and multiple pages.

2. You may wonder how free providers
can afford to offer free website
hosting. Almost always, they make
money by putting advertisements on
the free pages. Therefore, you can
certainly expect your pages to show
ads on them that you did not place
there. The worst is when a free host
uses popups, which is very aggravating
for visitors. Free web hosting sites
term and conditions often require that
you allow their online banners and
advertisements to be placed on your
website. As they will say, it is what
pays the bills.

3. A free site has their name along with
your unique domain name in the
address. If you have a business, a
potential client might think you are not
successful enough to have your own
website, and turn away to find
someone whose website is with one of
the best paid website hosting services.

4. You must use their website designs
and system and cannot upload other
popular website products like
WordPress into the free site.
