Web hosting - paid or free?

[country]

Very often i come across participants of the world web asking and inquiring if a paid hosting service should be hired or a free one.

I am of the view that a paid posting service comes with service committments that have to be honored. There is an economic interest of the service provider to ensure that the website owner/developer gets a smooth ride through the tenure of the deal.

Whereas for a free hosting service there are no such bindings or service committments from the service provider. You cannot blame or question him for loss of data and any sub standard services. You have to live with what has been offered becuase it's free. Moreover it would be too much demanding on the customer's part to ask for professional services comparable to the paid service.

Always have a paid hosting service because it pays to pay.

Personally, I use free web hosts. Why? I usually don't have enough money in my PayPal for paid hosting, even though I can find extremely cheap ones like $3 USD per month. I'm a member of a lot of money making sites and one in particular pays a lot and I might switch payment to PayPal, so I might consider starting to use paid hosting. But I would have to first ensure that my website will be a success before possible wasting my money.

The current free host I use I have been using for around 7 months. It used to be very good- although now, since it's a post2host, spammers are spamming the forums and they use that to get their hosting. The mods there aren't that great and everything is automated (hosting, etc) and they don't do much to stop it. Switching to paid hosting would most likely gaurentee quality unlike this.

I think its better to pay for your hosting. I always pay for my hosting and I normally always get good hosting because of it. If I ever get any problems then I have a right to complain as I have paid for it.

In my experience with web design, I am whole heartedly in favor of paid hosting. You have so much more freedom to post what you would like and it is your space. It also shows that you are serious about your business or whatever other endeavor you may be partaking in. It is generally hard to find free hosting that is truly without ads, which tend to be a nuisance for you and your visitors. Lastly, I find it more reliable to have paid hosting, because that way you can be assured that it is guaranteed (for the most part, anyways…).

I'm going to bump the tread up.After burying his mother nine months earlier, a client of the local mortuary finally had enough money to purchase the expensive coffin he'd originally wanted. So we exhumed the body and transferred his deceased mother into the new steel casket. "What's so special about this coffin?" I asked the funeral director. He replied, "It has a lifetime warranty."------------The WOW gold Online Store, Open 24/7 Looking to buy wow gold (http://www.u4game.com), Items or Accounts? You would find the cheapest gold here.
