In principle, its main advantage is the lack of investment and, therefore, need to determine what advantages we can get, while saving on fees. They are listed below:
- Special templates for creating the site. This could include and popular CMS – automated management of your resources;
- Support for all major programming languages and databases (eg, PHP, and MySQL);
- Support Domain names and sometimes the third level;
- Free mailbox;
- Easy to install counters, forums, chat, guest book;
- FTP-clock access;
- Access to the .Htaccess file, with the help of which you are managing a site;
- Unlimited traffic;

Now look at the disadvantages. At first glance, there are only two: a small amount of free space and the assignment of domain names, typical for the free hosting service. But think deeper, we see others, in many ways more significant deficiencies that may interfere with the subsequent promotion of your site.
Namely:
- Presence of advertising banners on almost every page, the annoying visitors and closing the necessary information;
- Weak probability of exchange links with larger projects because of the low status and inability to improve their indexing by search engines;
- Failure to place advertising, and shopping links advertisers and partners;
- Off site (sometimes even several days) without warning the user;
- Lack of support for certain languages ??and databases;
- Work with only one mailbox on the same site;
- No ability to create virtual accounts;
- Poor security system.
The list goes on. Therefore, although at the present time, many providers did their best to improve the quality of their services, to a good, reliable and dedicated hosting. So, it is better not to regret not-so-big money and spend it wisely. But even among the “paysites” also need to make a choice.
Paid Hosting
Qualitative paid hosting is entitled to all the above advantages, typical for most popular free service companies, and have their own merits. In this case, you need to pay attention to the balance between price and quality services. Also worth reading reviews of former clients (left them, for example, at various online forums), performance ratings and other materials that can be found on the ISP network.
Excellent site to view reviews, ratings, comments, and other features like Hosting Review where you can determine the choice of a free and paid hosting.
