The problem with free web hosting plans
May 15, 2008
In my opinion, free web hosting is one of the most misunderstood concepts on the web
today. Free web hosting plans are becoming increasingly popular as new webmasters
bite into the idea without actually analyzing the consequences. I myself spent many
years, at the start of my webmaster career, using free web hosting plans. This
experience has giving me an insight into the down-side of free web hosting plans
that many people seem to miss.
Would Coke promote Pepsi on their website?
Although the rhetorical question above seems ludicrous, this concept is one of the
fundamental problems with free web hosting plans. Forced advertising is the way that
hosting companies can afford to provide free hosting. Whether it be through
pop-ups, pop-unders, headline ads, or implanted adsense you will be hosting
advertisements on your website that generate revenue for your hosting company whether
you like it or not. Not only is this annoying it can also ruin the look of your page;
the majority of the time you cannot control what the ads look like or where they go,
they are simply dropped down onto your site and there is nothing you can do.
Traffic Jams
The bottom line in web hosting is that bandwidth (data transfer) costs money and if
your plan is free it is most likely your bandwidth will be limited. Too many times I
have attempted to access a web site hosted on a free server and been given the message:
This user has acceded their bandwidth limits, please try again next month. As a
webmaster this can be infuriating. Imagine building a solid page, marketing it,
gaining an audience, and then losing that audience because your page is not allowed
anymore hits for the month.
SEO woes
This is a problem that caused me a ton of frustration, but in the end taught mea lot
about how search engines work and how search engines handle name resolution. In almost
every case free web hosting plans do not allow you to point a domain name
(www.yoursite.com) to an actual page. Instead you are forced to use a concept called
URL redirection. URL redirection allows a webmaster to identify a site that the URL
should point to. So if a user types in www.example.com and we have configured it to
redirect to www.freehost/users/mysite.html it will end up on that page. This does not
seem like much of an issue until you begin trying to get your website indexed in the
search engines. So you submit your site (www.example.com) to some directories and you
ake some good link partners and then you start to wonder, why am I not being listed in
the SEs? I have 100 solid back links pointing to www.example.com, what is happening.
The problem is that www.example.com has no data, it has no content, it simply redirects
to your actual page at www.freehost/users/mysite.html. SEs not only will not index a
page with no data or content but they may even view this as an attempt to fool their
algorithm, thus banning your domain name. The only work around is to forget the domain
name and optimize for your free hosting address, which is not really an acceptable work
around.
But wait!
Although I am a strong believer that free web hosting is not the way to go it is
possible to find a free web host that works for you. There are some out there that do
not force advertising, do not limit your bandwidth, and will allow pointed domains.
The problem is finding one that does all three. If you are a serious, or even only
slightly serious, webmaster take the hit and pay the money for web hosting. In the end
you can get an awesome web hosting plan for as low as $5.95 a month, and trust me this
will be WELL worth the money.

May 14, 2008
There are so many services on the web hosting market today. And it’s sometimes very difficult to identify what is best for you. Some web hosting companies now offer Free Web Hosting and the name is very tempting but is it worth it?
To figure out whether to choose Free or Paid Web Hosting read the article, which is called to answer this question. What is Free Web Hosting?
Free web hosting means placing hundreds of web sites on the same physical server. All users share same Disk space, Bandwidth and Operating System.
These services can be free of charge as the web hosting provider benefits from advertisements that are he places on your web site. Some web hosting companies offer free web hosting as they hope you appreciate its benefits and then perchance a paid web hosting package from that web hosting company.
Facts for Free Web Hosting
Price

Facts against Free Web Hosting
Free web hosting is often considered to be a perfect choice for the beginners but you shouldn’t take “Free web hosting” literally as in case you pay no money it doesn’t mean you pay nothing at all. * you pay with your web business security as in this case you are not protected from hackers or any other interference in a proper way. *you pay with your comfort as servers that are used for free web hosting are usually not reliable and overcrowded and they usually go through a lot of downtimes.
*you pay with your confidence as the companies that provide free web hosting often don’t provide its “free” clients with qualified support or any support at all.
*you pay with your suitability as plans for the free web hosting don’t usually include some advanced features, such as PHP, MySQL databases or FTP accounts.
*you pay with your web site look as you are required to place advertisement banners of third parties that might be annoying *you pay with your reconcilability as you are not allowed to register your own domain and you operate your subdomain under the web hosting company primary domain.
Paid Web Hosting?

Why to Choose Paid Hosting Instead of Free?
May 14, 2008
Many of you faced with the question today of having a web site.
And after developing your site you will probably starting to find good free hosting.
What’s the catch with the free hosting providers?
There is nothing in this world for free. Ask yourself a question - how do they survive?
They have to pay for servers, bandwidth, server software and got no income?
The answer is - advertising, yeah they place an ads on your site and usually have a tracking tools to decide whether traffic on your site click on their ads and generate income or not.
If not do not be surprised your account closed.
- Free hosting companies usually place their own ads on your site.
- There are some free hosting companies that do not place an ads but if you get some traffic on your site your free provider may close your account and place his own page with ads instead of your site.
- PHP, CGI, Perl and many other tech tools are disabled.
- You have very limited disk space and limited bandwidth.
- You have not memorized by others address like /freehoster.com/somedir/~youraccount
- You don’t have useful tools like Site builder, add-on scripts which some paid hosting companies offer for free.
- You don’t have email address similar as your account name.
- A lot of free hosts change their Terms without warning you.
- Because they are offering free hosting, the majority of them can not afford to offer 24/7 or any support.
- Very few free web hosts offer a control panel with their plans.
With pay host you eliminate all this inconveniences except one - it’s not free.
I know this is not simple step to decide to pay for hosting. So if you need just information
page for your friends then free hosting option is right for you. But if this is your presentation
site or you plan to do some business and need tools like PHP, CGI etc…
I’d recommend to take a look at paid hosting companies.

Free Web Hosting Services
When you’re searching through the Internet you will find endless amounts of information, about everything, and all at your fingertips. The Internet is the largest source of knowledge in the world. Why is this? Because anyone can get their information on there. All you need is a web site and a resource generous web hosting company. When you’re searching through the Internet you will find endless amounts of information, about everything, and all at your fingertips. The Internet is the largest source of knowledge in the world. Why is this? Because anyone can get their information on there. All you need is a web site and a resource generous web hosting company. Many people think that getting their website on the Internet is an expensive venture, fortunately though, this need not necessarily be true; if you find the right web host, the benefits of having a web site will definitely outweigh the costs. There are many different ways to benefit from having a web site, whether it is for personal gain, or to aid your business success. Those who have their own personal websites generally use them to further an interest or a hobby; having a web site is a great way to share and exchange knowledge with others. Businesses on the other hand use a website to promote and market their goods and services, while cutting back on such expenses as postage, couriers and advertising, etc. These are but a few key benefits of owning a website: Increased awareness of products and services - Businesses can now greatly expand their markets, no need to constrain the focus to only the local scene, but by using the Internet, businesses can venture into international and regional markets, with greater ease. This dynamically changes the nature and the marketing activities of some businesses, possibly encouraging the business to expand the diversity of its products and services, to meet these new markets. Websites, in their nature, allow hundreds and thousands of items to be on view 24/7; thus encouraging wider viewing, and extended trading hours. Freedom - With the freedom of being able to post your information on your website, hence on the Internet, at any time of the day; available information of all variations is increasing at a huge rate. The freedom to browse anywhere and interact with anyone is enough to tempt the smallest of businesses and the most introverted of people to get on the Net; hence Net users are increasing in numbers, at an alarming rate, approximately 50,000 per day. Businesses are buzzing on the Net, they have found a way to compete on an even field, with even the largest of corporations; and within a daily increasing customer marketplace. Cost advantage - Net businesses are extremely aware of how they can profit by being on the Internet; they can advertise their products and services without the huge costs, and delays of printing, publishing and distribution. The market is a global one, which adds greater value to the costs outlaid for promotion and marketing; compared to the limits of offline. E- commerce facilities can be incorporated into the website, transforming 2D screen visuals into user reactive models, for example, consumers can order their products and services online, greatly reducing administration expenses. Reduction of telephone calls to potential customers; follow ups by email; newsletters digitally made, promoted by email or downloadable from the website, with reduction of distribution costs; less promotional material sent out, printed and wasted; extended trading hours without a human presence; are just a few ways to cut costs. The current opinion is that any business not on the Internet now or in the near future is not only missing out on the rewards of this new and vibrant industry, but is adding itself to the list of “the forgotten”.Don’t waste time scratching your head wondering what the Internet can do to benefit your business, you will be left behind; instead, think about how you can take advantage of this new and cheap form of industry awareness. Look for a web designer, or web developer, get a quote, and tell them what you need. To evaluate a web host, the price is not the only important factor, the client will need to take consideration about other characteristics.

Free or Commercial Hosting. Which is Best?

Free or Commercial Hosting. Which is Best?
Once you have created a Web site, whether it is a personal site or a business site, you will want to put it on the World Wide Web, right? But where? You want the best service at the lowest price and you’ve been seeing free hosting advertisements. Free is good, but is it good for your website? FInd out now if a free hosting plan is a viable option by considering these facts;
There are two main types of web hosts.
- One is a free web host - a company who offers free space on their servers to post your pages and is usually used for personal Web sites.
- The second type of Web host is a commercial Web host - a company who charges you for Web space on their servers where you can post your pages and are usually used for business and professional Web sites.
Most people think that you need to get your Internet access and Web space from the same company. Most Internet Providers otter Web hosting but your site does not have to be hosted by your provider. Shop around at different providers and host companies to find the features you need at a competitive price. Depending on what type of Web host you are looking for, there are some main things to look for and be aware of…
Choosing a Free Web Host
Advertising
The main drawback to free hosts is that you will most likely have to display their advertisement banner on your site, or an advertising pop up window appears ever time a page is loaded. This is done to cover the costs of providing your site with tree Web space.
Your Files
A very important issue is the host’s method of creating/uploading a site. Now, many of the hosts offer templates and user-friendly methods for creating and uploading files for your site. If you do not have any HTML or design experience, this is the way to go.
Amount of Space
Make sure that the host offers an account that will provide you with enough space for your site. Your need for space will vary depending on how many and how large your graphics are, whether you have audio or video on your site, any large databases, etc.
Reliability and Speed
This is another important factor. Make sure that your site won’t experience long amounts of down time and slow loading when visitors try to access your pages.
Choosing a Commercial Web Host
Reliability and Speed
A site that is frequently down or slow will always loose visitors. Make sure you host has a fast connection to the Internet (T-3 lines are a must) that guarantees a minimum of 99 per cent uptime.
Space
Be sure that your hosting package allows you enough space for your site. If you have a large Web site or many Web sites that have numerous pages, images, audio files, video files, animation, databases or scripts be sure to have at least 100 MB of space. The same goes for bandwidth.
Technical and Customer Support
I cannot stress enough how important this issue is. Make sure that its technical support functions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Test them out by seeing how long it takes them to respond to e-mails, call the tech support line on weekends, late at night, etc.
Features
Look for a host that provides features for your site such as a CGI-BIN for scripts, SSI, a secure server for secure items or online orders, FTP access, POP e-mail accounts, a Control Panel where you can view you account stats, Telnet etc.
Price
This is perhaps the most important element to consider when choosing a host. Cheaper is not always better. There are many companies that seem competitive and often unbelievable prices, but end up providing unreliable uptimes, slow delivery of your site to visitors and slow support response times. Invest into a hosting provider that offers average prices, chances are the higher prices are committed to support functions such as a 24/7 support staff.

How to Achieve # 1 on Free Hosting
May 5, 2008
A domain name and paid hosting are considered essential for an internet marketer.Majority of the websites that are successful have their own domain name and a paid host.However , is it possible to run a successful website on free hosting ?
A lot of people will answer no to that question.But it is very much possible if the right marketing techniques are applied.First of all , what is free hosting ? A website is basically stored for free on a company’s server and in return some will put their ads on your site for free.
This can be very annoying indeed sometimes.In the case where there are two or more pop-up ads displayed , some people will not bother to look at your content.
Another thing to look at is that you will lose some credibility. Having a website on free hosting will not show you up as being truly professional. People will wonder what are you doing with your revenue if you generate any.

Free Web Hosting - Why Might It Be A Bad Idea
May 5, 2008
When talking about free anything the legitimate question that first pops into your mind is why pay when you can get it free? And as for free web hosting there are plenty of places to get it from.
When talking about free anything the legitimate question that first pops into your mind is why pay when you can get it free? And as for free web hosting there are plenty of places to get it from.
As spread as they are, if you are not a stranger to the whole Internet experience, you might even have a web site hosted for free. Are you satisfied with your provider? Is it everything you wanted? Probably not. Anyway it is true that is comes with no cost and no other aggravations or are there any?
Free web hosting cost no money but what can you expect from one?
Your web site will be turned into an advertising machine that works for the free web host. Expect, banners, pop up windows, frames. They will all mess the look of your web site in terms of design and accessibility for your visitors that might be literally flooded with popups almost after every click-through.
You cant make advertising revenue of your web site, as most free web hosts dont allow it. This is not such a big issue when you are maintaining a personal web site, but the cutting-off advertising revenues can mean significant losses for a business. For this last case, only a paid web hosting solution might be the right answer.
Very little space for your web pages. With free web hosting provider offering 5 to 15 MB of disk space, your sites expansion will severely restricted. Growing your web site above the offered quota would result in transferring to a paid plan offered by the same hosting provider or finding a different paid web-hosting provider. In both cases you end paying for your hosting and you might loose traffic to your web site due to changing hosts.
No online store can go without secure server to enable secure online credit card processing. The great majority of free hosts dont support secure web servers. Customers fearing fraud and concerned about their personal information will make it impossible, at least very hard for an online store to survive on a free host. And anyway, have you ever heard of a successful online store hosted by a free web host? None will hear from yours either.
The uptime of your web site will be like the weather forecast. Hope for good, but prepare for the worse. Downtime through free web hosts is unfortunately very common. As web hosts generate their revenues from advertising, they dont feel very much compelled to care for the web site of a subscriber who doesnt pay them anyway.
To whom will you turn when experiencing the abovementioned downtime or other technical problem with your web site? Free web hosts usually have a limited budget and dont afford to hire large customer support teams, if any. You will find yourself alone, staring at the FAQ page.
Your domain name will be measured in feet and will tell nothing or very little of your business. This obviously results in low traffic scores, as your visitors wont be able to remember your URL. Can you rely only on search engines, linked sites and people bookmarking your web site? If yes, at least consider the fact that in the age when companies try to create a personalized image, your web site will be condemned to be just another subdomain of your free host.
Will your customers trust a business hosted by a free web host? What credibility will your web site inspire? Not a very high one.
The above list is really rather long, but as surprisingly as it might be, it is far from being complete. Other additions to it could be that free web hosts not always offer FTP access to your web site file, or you only have one e-mail address to work with and probably looks like mysite@anotherfreeserver.com .
Yes, paid web hosting requires money, but the prices are lower than they used to be, and the advantages are rather impressive. Just turn all the above you cant or you have to do without list around
You are searching for a solution to host your business or even a professional personal web site, dont look for it at a free web host.

How to get Domains and Hosting for Free
April 30, 2008
How to get hosting and Domains for free.
Are you paying too much for your Domain names and Hosting?
I was before I started checking out things.
I was paying 30$ a year for a single .com Domain, and I didn’t even get good service, a free email account or any possibilities of controlling anything regarding my Domains my self.
Then I started checking out things and now I am actually paying nothing for my hosting!
How is that possible?
Well let me tell you how things work. You can get a .com Domain for as low 1.99$ if you for instance go to www.ShopA.name or many other places. But you will have to by something else to get it at that prize, because nobody is making any money at that prize, and they only sell it to you at that prize because you then hopefully will by your hosting there and stick around for several years. So in the long run they will make money on you. Remember THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH, so if you save money on your Domain you will have to give money for something else or every domain seller would be out of business very quickly.
Where you can save money and even make money is if you become a reseller of Domains. If you become a reseller of Domains you will by them at a wholesale prize that is lower than ay prize you can get anywhere else, plus you will be able to make money from selling to other people. That’s what I do. Whenever I need a Domain name I by it from my self. A .com Domain cost me 7$, so you see selling it for 1.99$ means loosing money, so nobody is doing that unless they make money on something else. The best thing you can do is therefore to make money on your self, that way you get your Domains and Hosting as cheap as you can and you can with a little effort even make money by selling to other people.
Godaddy is the #1 registrar and they sell finished web shops for selling Domains. They use their sister company Wild West Domains to sell reseller plans. They provide 24/7 support for your costumers, so you don’t have to worry of anything. There are two different reseller plans the small cost 99$ and the big 199$, but here’s another scoop. Some people have chosen to become master resellers, selling reseller shops, and they are usually giving a discount, to win market shares. If you go to www.masterdomaine.com you can get the same Wild West products for 90$ and 179$.
So for only 90$ you can get all your hosting and Domains as cheap as possible and you will even make money at the same time selling to others!
That’s how Domains and Hosting became absolutely free for me.
