Hello friends, Unziptech has always been helping others by
sharing useful articles. Today I will post about another free web hosting
service provider. By the end of the post you will learn how to get a free web
hosting account from Awardspace. Awardspace provides free as well as paid web
hosting. But this post will talk about only free web hosting service. If you
are using a free hosting service you need to compromise with limits in terms of
bandwidth and disk space. But for the people who can deal with the limits, this is
a great web host.
Awardspace has been nominated for best free web hosting
service providers many times and it has also won some awards in the same
category. Awardspace focuses more on providing Quality web hosting for both
free and paid customers without placing any ads. Now let us review features of
this web host.
Features of Awardspace free web hosting

If you are hosting a wordpress site with this or any hosting provider, free or not, be sure to inquire how regularly they back up your site, and what kind of support they offer. Commercial hosting providers consider WordPress as an “application”, and therefore officially do not support it. In practice, many of them do provide some level of support (Hostgator in particular is quite good). However, they will not help you with relatively common errors, such as corrupted files, theme installation issues, user errors, etc. If your site gets hacked, or if you make a mistake and take your site down, you could be on your own. You would need to scramble to find a programmer, and your site will be down during this time.
ReplyDeleteMarc, you have a point. But they give you an option to take backup of whatever you host on them. I used 000webhost as well another free hosting website, they also gave backup options.
