Default Reviews about Paid Hosting and Free Hosting?

Hi

I think, the hosting is where we will hold the name of our business (our website) on the Internet, we called it as a "Hosting Service". But which things differentiate paid hosting and free hosting from each other?

There are many important difference between free hosting & paid hosting. The fact is, there are many companies that are dedicated to providing the domain and free hosting service, but this is going to out very expensive to those who use it, because these companies normally use your website to advertise their products and services, placing banners or eye-catching ads that will distract attention of your site visitors and they may leave your site instantly. So rethink about your strategy.

The most crucial drawback of using free service is that the loading time of your website is going to be very slow, if you opt free services instead of paid ones. It will become a concerned issue for you soon or later and that is because the free hosting providers server are most probably very overloaded.

Another important drawback is that your website will give a bad image, and if you want to promote a business, you have to give a more professional look to it, so it is advisable not to use those free services. Your site's web pages should be more effective, and they have to load up within a few seconds.

Paid Hosting has numerous advantages over Free Hosting, and let me provide with some of them :-
1. Paid Hosting provider offers 24x7, 365 days support to its clients.
2. Provides website up-time guarantee.
3. Unlike in the case of free hosting, paid hosting will never add banners and/or pop ads on your homepage and/or all of your pages.
4. And the most important of all, Quality never comes for free.

Thus free hosting is not at all recommended. However you may go for the low cost shared plans.

On many different forums I have seen free hosting providers promoting themselves. To me that doesn't makes any sense about such kind of services. In my opinion, it's always good to go with a paid hosting solution, because in most of the cases it will be more reliable and more feature rich option.

With the free web hosting service you will have the limited resources, limited web space, limited bandwidth, no backup solution, no customer support. Its good for those who are learning web development and designing. But you can't expect more from these free things. Besides you will get what you have paid for with paid web hosting.

If your website is valuable to you, and want to get quick technical support, need guaranteed uptime, then certainly paid hosting is your only option. But, if the website is not important to you, and high availability or uptime is not a concern issue for you, then you can go with free services and save your money. But remember monthly cost of the normal shared hosting plan is almost cheaper than our daily expenses.
