Is free hosting any good?
Do you think Free hosting is cost-effective? as it is usually slow, and most of the time, with advertisements...

It may be ok to start with, but definiely not good for a site long term.
Though I have scored a free dedicated server in the past. |

All you need is a couple bucks and you'll have a domain +everything you could
ever want for a whole year. The second you do it you'll never go back!

Free hosting is a complete waste of time. Sure, it's good for kids that don't get all that much cash, but you can get hosting packages from somewhere as cheap as $10.00. However, domain names are not ever really cheaper than $9.00 per year.

Most of the free webhosts sux, but you can find few good ones too. If you dont have a serious webpage, you can easely consider to use free webhosts. I found few good free webhosts, where i also have my webpages.

I started way back when with a free website on xoom when I realized (didn't take long lol) my dialup wasn't going to cut it. Free is good for beginners. :-) Most anyone with even a slightly serious interest in having a website will almost always migrate to a domain and hosting.

It's better to pay for a domain and host, you get much better, faster and more reliable service.

If you make money with your website it is not safe to use free hosting, it is every day possible that your website unreachable is.

Free hosting is good for mucking around and testing things out. Free Hosting most times is slower than paid hosting and less reliable. If you are looking to create a website that will be running for a while, and you need to keep it running, it is best to use paid hosting.
