7 Best Free Web Hosting Sites To Host Your Blog

Do you know more than 70% of the bloggers are afraid to create their own blog? And most of them say that they don’t want to spend a dime unless they’re certain of a reward in return for their efforts and money. But how about I give you a way to save one big amount and launch your blog right away?

Sounds great, right? So, what is that one BIG way to save you bucks on creating a new blog?

Signing up with free web hosting sites

This is true. You can have a way to host your blog or website just for free. All you need is to find the best free web hosting sites and choose one to get you started.

To save you time and effort, I have created a list of top 7 free web hosting sites. You just need to review them and decide. So, without further delay, let’s get started.

3 tips to become a productive blogger

1. www.000webhost.com

The company has been in business since 2007. They have hosted millions of websites and blogs. The best part is a no advertisement feature and all for free.

They assure you to provide 99% uptime guarantee, which probably no other web hosting company do. In addition to this, they also support PHP and MySQL.

However, to receive better services they have their premium accounts as well.

One glitch, although, we found when researching was a report submitted by Forbes magazine in 2015. The author highlighted an incident where 13.5 million accounts were compromised.

After October 2015, no such incident has been recorded. But it’s wise to do a little research yourself so that you don’t have to face any such trouble.

Our rating: 4/5

2. X10hosting.com

The company claims to serve over 12 million pages only in March 2017. This is HUGE.

Same like 000webhost, this free hosting service is in business for 10 long years. The support the latest versions of PHP, MySQL, and cPanel. With their top-scored private cloud, they stand ahead of many free hosting service providers.

Not a single bad incident has yet been recorded so we would score this hosting provider a full score.

Our rating: 5/5

3. Freehostia.com

They call themselves the “The Hosting Paradise on Earth”.

Installing Joomla, WordPress, phpBB, and other PHP scripts are just a click away through their 1-click applications installer.

Although the space offered by Freehotia is only 250MB (000webhost: 1000MB), the company offers 5 hosted domains, 3 email accounts, 6GB monthly traffic and more.

The company also offer VPS, semi-dedicated, and dedicated servers. These offers come with a price and are best for larger sized businesses.

Earlier, the company faced troubles and users weren’t saying good about the company. However, a much recent review says otherwise. A reviewer says that the only problem he faced is their poor customer service. But he/she still doesn’t stop you from getting their free web hosting service.

Our rating: 4/5

4. Freehosting.com

There are no monthly charges. No ads, banners, or links, to disrupt users. And free bandwidth.

With their free site builder, it is easy to upload your website or blog. Or you’d use any compatible web script. Their charge $9.49 for a domain name. But you aren’t bound to buy a domain name from them.

Freehosting is best suitable if you want audio/video streaming or it’s compatible with Shockwave, and Flash.

Based on some reviews [read here], this free web hosting site couldn’t catch our interest. But it’s still not a bad option for a starter.

Our rating: 3/5

5. 5gbfree.com

E-commerce business is up on the rise these days. You’d sell almost anything on the internet. But this comes with a bit cost and safety issues.

5gbfree is one such free web hosting sites which claim to be the best service provider for eCommerce solutions. They’ve installed highly-efficient servers which provide better security.

No ads, support is also available for free users (forums), and they also support PHP, MySQL, and CURL.

Their $2.95/yr is also worth checking.

Our rating: 4/5

6. Biz.nf

This is not a very favorable hosting service providing company. However, you can review their prime services

Their free plan includes:

• 1000MB free disk space
• 5GB traffic
• Free .co/.nf domains
• Available support: PHP 5, MySQL 5, WordPress, Joomla
• Instant activation

When you’re using this free web hosting service, you’ll be provided a guide to creating a fee website. The guide is comprehensive and goes along the user. However, a video tutorial is a better source to guide users.

Read some reviews.

Our rating: 3/5

7. Uhostfull.com

This is the last free web hosting site in our list.

What makes them different is a collection of templates for blogs, eCommerce sites, and photo galleries. Uhostfull offers 20,000MB free space and 200,000MB, which makes it unique from other service providers.

Time to Host Your Blog

Now that you have a list of 7 best free web hosting sites, you can choose one and start the process to create your own blog.

However, I would add suggest to convert your free blog hosting service to paid after let’s say a year or so. Free hosters do sound good. But you have witnessed several issues with them. So, when you start getting a good traffic on your blog, think the paid web hosting service.
