Who would not want a free stuff by the way? However, not all free could lead to an improvement, just like registering to a free web host. There are few disadvantages you ought to know when trying to register a website with a free host.
A host, unlike paid web host, does not offer any specific domain name of your own. They would only give you sub domains or directory URL. People may think twice regarding the credibility of your company or organization. Free host allows lower bandwidth, too.
There are limits of what they can offer, because the website is not yours. Limited web space and fewer features are the likes. Instead, to get a full access on your website features, they will offer you to upgrade. Upgrades are not for free! Sometimes, you even pay more than the offer from those paid Web host Company. Support is limited also for free web host.
Most of the time, free websites ranks lower by the search engines.
Through your website, the web host could use it for promotion of their own that could lead to a page overload. Server load follows that make time-consuming for your visitors.
