Do you pay for your hosting or have something that is free? Some people even pay for deciated hosting. I have had free hosting and now pay a couple dollars a month for hosting.

I pay for hosting. I can't trust free hosts. Most don't last long and the ones that do usually don't have very good uptime.
Whats a few dollars compared to knowing you site will be up and customers can access it?

I alternate on hosting. Depending on what projects I have && how much money I have. I use mediatemple's grid-server to host most of my websites.

Other than that, I use VPS. Will someday use dedicated.

I would pay for hosting but I set my mom's site up and she bought the hosting and let me steal some for payment. I would highly recommend buying hosting. The free hosting is nice when you are starting out, but after awhile you need some real capabilities that allow for MySQL and PHP.

FREE hosts are always unreliable. I have always used paid hosting since my webs-ites are precious for me.
Now, since a year, I am a client on my own web-hosting business :D

Since a long time i have been using free hosting providers as I was not ready to invest money for hosting a website. But I must say that most of the free hosting providers are not reliable and those who are show some kind of ads on your website. The reliable ones also have a lot less features to offer!
I think it's a better option to spend a couple of dollars per month and have some basic web hosting plan from a good company.

In the past you couldn't get very much storage or bandwidth by getting free hosting and if you used paid hosting it was very pricey. Nowadays with Hosts like GoDaddy, it is just too cheap for paid hosting to not pay for hosting. I mean if you can't afford to spend $36 a year for a hosting account, then you have bigger problems and don't need to be worrying about a website. Dedicated hosting. Hmmm... Is that just more or less your own server stored in someone's datacenter? If so, I know that isn't cheap. The only possible reason for really using something like that is if you have high bandwidth usage, like a youtube or myspace kind of site, or an ecommerce site. Even then... (I did research on this recently) it is only dynamic content that pulls the most bandwidth. So even an ecommerce site shouldn't need dedicated hosting. Really you need to be making a lot of money to warrant the need for dedicated hosting.
