These days, everyone is hoping to get something for free. Whether you’re trying to cut costs in your existing business or looking to start a new one on a small budget, any free service will be mighty tempting.

Free web hosting is just one way to cut costs in your business. You get a website that’s all your own and for less than cents on the dollar. But is free web hosting really free? Some free web host users would say that this budget friendly service comes with a cost.

As with most things in life, you get what you pay for and nothing is free. Free web hosting is no exception. For the most part, free web hosting gets you an address and that’s it. Don’t expect technical support or additional service from your provider. You can also look forward to limited storage space, limited site design, and limited functionality. In a word, free web hosting gets you limited everything.

For your basic website, free web hosting is a great way to go, especially if you’re test driving the whole website thing. But for a competitive website that’s dressed to impress, you’ll want to shell out a few bucks from your budget for a paid web host.
