Popular Free Web Hosting Summary

There are lots of Free hosting service providers in the market since high demanding for non-tech user to get a website for personal usage or small business. Unfortunately, most of them are not worth even for trying since bad reputation for many companies to limit important features or adding ads into your site, even delete or take your domain away from you. 

There are some (small portion) providers do providng some reliable and steady free service for quite a long time already. I have been trying some of them. Here are some of my personal experience to summarize their features and limitation on their services. Before you wasted your time to try any of them, take a look to see if you can find one matching all your requirements and also you can accept their limiation. 

Strongly suggest to get a free VPS from Oracle which you can build your own server or websites without tolating those limitation from the free providers. At the same time, you got full control of your domain, traffic, and services.
