What you should know about free web page hosting

Plenty of hosting companies now are offering free website hosting accounts, seducing more and more clients. The free-of-cost service is fine if you have a personal web page or if you do not wish to invest money for a paid professional web site hosting account. Let's have a peek at some of the strong and weak sides of the cost-free web space hosting solution in general.

Asset Number One: Free Web Page Hosting is... Free

The greatest advantage is that you receive a top free hosting service - this would eliminate any costs associated with possessing a personal page, an online blog, a forum, or even a small-size company website. Since the free web space hosting distributors are also furnishing regular shared hosting packages, they will do their best to offer you a decent service and to persuade you that their servers are dependable. If you obtain a good free-of-charge service, it signifies that you'd receive an even finer paid service, so it is in their own best self-interest to offer you a decent free-of-charge hosting service. This will render you more inclined to contemplate getting a cloud web hosting solution from them in the not too distant future.

Strong Point No.2: Saves You Cash

The free hosting service is a suitable choice if you do not wish to invest money in your web page or you are making your initial moves in web site design and wish to notice how well you can manage, but you are not willing to pay for that. Furthermore, if you need an online portal for a special event like a class reunion, a fundraising campaign, or local elections, you may think about a free-of-charge site hosting package as you will not be restrained by any service contracts and you will not need to pay on a monthly or yearly basis for the site hosting solution, which you may not even avail of after the event has passed.

Weak Side No.1: Forced Adverts

No matter how adequate the free-of-charge web site hosting service might appear, it also has negative points ? exactly because it is charge-free. Since the customers do not pay for their website hosting accounts, the only way for the web host to provide this solution is to insert commercials on each page of your web portal. Certain companies even use popup windows and this may deter the visitors to your website from exploring it or from coming back again in the near future. The advertisements will also make any corporate page appear inadequate ? few people would purchase anything from a hosting service provider that cannot afford to spend money for its own personal web site.

Inconvenience Number 2: Restricted Tech Support

There are some technical restrictions as well. As the hosting service is free-of-cost, the data space, web traffic and file size quotas are traditionally quite inadequate, whereas e-mail or database support is not always available. You can upgrade either the entire plan to a reliable hosting plan, or you can upgrade only a single functionality, such as server space, on the basis of the upgrade alternatives offered by the free web hosting corporation that you are utilizing. Another negative point is that you may get insufficient or no client and technical support and that there is no warranty for the stability of the hosting servers. Every provider would like to offer dependable solutions, but since you do not pay a dime, as is the case with the free web site hosting service, you cannot insist on receiving such services.

Discounted Web Page Hosting - The Finer Choice?

Considering the positive and negative sides of the free web space hosting service, you can elect whether you want such an account or a professional one. Some web hosting hosts like 'NewHost Global ', for instance, provide a bunch of traditional web hosting plans that are very cheap and enormously exceed the resources delivered by any cost-free webspace hosting package.
