Best Free Hosting

Update: March 4th, 2013

If you are tight on budget and needs a website up pretty quickly, then you need a reliable yet free website host. We have been through the pain of having to move hosting many times over. It is not a fun thing to do when you have to copy, reconfigure and rebuild your website because your current hosting is not reliable or does not meet your requirements. To help you to pick the right web hosting, we present to you some of the best free web hosting sites you can use. Each of them have their own advantage and disadvantage so pick them based on what you really need in a website.

  1. HostgatorHostgator review
    Great hosting service with free trial using Hostgator coupon code below. You can try their full featured plan or even their reseller plan for free (almost – because you pay only $0.01). Read this Hostgator review to see why this host is better than other big names.
    Pros: Unlimited space, unlimited bandwidth, host unlimited domains. PHP, FTP and MySQL allowed. Ad-free.
    Cons: First month for $0.01, but then need to pay regular price.

  3. Webs.comWebs
    Pros: Ad-free. No pages/bandwidth restrictions.
    Cons: No FTP. Cannot upload own files. No PHP or database. Templates not great.
  4. WeeblyWeebly
    Beginner-friendly website builder similar to Yola.
    Pros: Good Site Builder. Ad-free
    Cons: No FTP. Cannot upload files. No PHP or database.
  5. YolaYola review
    Yola is a reliable and feature-packed web hosting and web building program. You can build a beautiful website in minutes. We have people reporting that the features are outstanding, the customer support is responsive. The free account is just fine for most people, but even the cost of the paid account is very reasonable.
    Pros: Free and easy to use website builder. No ads. 1GB of storage per site.
    Cons: Yola’s page editor quite limited. HTML knowledge preferred.

Which is Best?

That depends on your requirements. If you want a short-term full fledge web hosting with PHP and MySQL capability and big discounts, then you want to signup with Hostgator. If you want your own domain and do not mind some ads temporarily, then register your domain at Godaddy and use their free hosting for now. If you already have a template or you’re going to get a designer/programmer to build one, then Weebly might be best, as you could import it.

If you really just want a blog with a few extra pages then WordPress is probably best. If you want a product finder, you’re already paying for web hosting and/or you want to build lots of sites, then Wevinator may be for you. Flash devotees can choose between Wix and Moonfruit.

Just take note that none of these web builders are really free if you want your own domain. If you to have some web applications with no ads on your site or want a half-decent template anyway, then you need to pay extra anyways.

In addition, if you are ready to spend some money but do not want to spend too much, try cheap web hosts like Justhost. If you have tried them, we would like to hear what you think about them. Leave your Justhost review in the comment box below.
