Is it a personal or a business website ?
I won't recommend you a FREE Hosting for many reasons rather spend few £'s and use our Fully Managed, Secure, Reliable Hosting services

It is a business website selling lingerie, i dont really want to pay a monthly fee for hosting at the min untill my business kicks off hence the reason i would like free hosting. I am looking for unlimited emails, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited web space, cpanel server software basicaly everthing unlimited lol.

Well, for business website hosting uptime and security is most important which is very rare on FREE hosting. Usually they offer free hosting in exchange of banner advertisements on your business website which is not good for any serious business owner.
Most important part is that you never know when your FREE webhost will shut down hosting services.

Sammy, can you please answer few of my questions below.
Why the post was removed from such highly reputed forum?
Do you have more references for other forums recommending your preferred FREE host?

Sammy2011 · #10 (**permalink**) 13-09-11, 12:45 AM

Im sorry but I do not remember what forums I have been on but the company also has reviews on Free Index. Why is there a problem or something? I dont know why the comment has been removed and its not my recommended (preferred) FREE host as you know i seen someone else recommending the company. I am a little confused here on why you are asking me questions about a comment I shown you. All i wanted from your forum was a little help didnt realize it would be this difficult.

Sammy

Hello Sammy,
We won't recommend any FREE hosting provider nor we tolerate such discussion for a specific webhost. (such threads will be treated as a spam post )

Its not recommended to go for free web hosting.... And i agree with harry...

Selecting the right web hosting service on your internet business, web presence or site can be quite a challenging and hard to do. It is important to look for the best web host for your website to make sure that everybody donít have to worry about downtimes and web server problems.

Web hosting is more of an investment than expense. Therefore the first priority must be given to the quality of web hosting services offered and the appropriate web hosting plan as the performance of your website is dependent on it. You must ensure that a 24/7 technical support is offered for 100% uptime of the website. Look for affordable website hosting companies instead of free ones.

The smooth functioning of your website depends on the hosting server you select and the website hosting company you sign up with. Therefore it is essential to select the best one. The visitors to your website must be greeted with a fast and impressive website and this can only be done with an appropriate website hosting platform that is comprised of the latest technologies and industry leading features.

Never opt for free web hosting companies, the only advantage it has is that its free. However, as mentioned by other members that 24x7 customer support and uptime guarantee are the most important factors to consider, mostly such free hosting companies lack on such features. Also, since they offer free hosting, you never know when they gets shut down without informing you and taking all of your data forever with them.

Hence, it is better to lose your pockets and get a plan with certain resources from a trusted premium web hosting provider.
