Who has used it? What was your experience? Are there any free hosting companies you recommend? How would you compare free hosting to other types?

I have tried free webhost called 000webhost. I used it for test site and did not use for a long time as I already have my own hosting package. I am not sure if it still exist or if it is as good as in old days.

The parent company, Hostinger, is quite cheap, so I wonder if it's worth it to stay with it.

For instance, the cheapest plan gets you 25 add-on domains for 2.99 USD (not paid monthly).

Long back. Not in the last decade. I will never use one anymore. The lessons I learned are enough to keep me away from one.

They disappear one day, taking all your stuff. And, you are doomed, end of it,

In the 2000s, my guitar lesson page was on free hosting. It was just an ad-supported static page.

I know it is hard. Online business has gone costly, especially after the pandemic.

Actually, hosting seems quite cheap. What do you mean?

Quite cheap? Are you on a VPS? Or a dedicated?

I'm on shared, but the other stuff is still cheap.

i've used free hosting in the past like Freewebs, but I haven't used any in years.

Cloudflare offers free hosting though and Github though.
