Should You Pay for Web hosting?

Questions arise often when you have to find the right host for your website. A paid hosting plan is an investment, but must you really waste money when you can get it free? This will solely depend on the type of website that you want to host as some will essentially require paid hosting facilities not offered by a free hosting service.

Though the free offer might seem appealing, there are also some disadvantages in having a free hosting service; advertising overload, limited space, file type restrictions, or long domain names. But if your website does not demand so many facilities, you can opt for free hosting.
