    I have my domain http://bestcustomcomputer.com hosted by 000webhost.com. Is there some catch to this web host? It says it's free but there must be some catch. At the end of my page there is some code that I can't get rid of that the host put there. It is this...

    <!-- www.000webhost.com Analytics Code -->
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var websiteID='bestcustomcomputer.com';
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://analytics.hosting24.com/s.php"></script>
    <noscript>
    <a href="http://www.hosting24.com/"><img src="http://analytics.hosting24.com/s.php?websiteID=bestcustomcomputer.com" alt="web hosting" /></a>
    </noscript>
    <!-- End Of Code -->

    Is this some kind of malaware? Should I be concerned about this host? Thank you for talking your time to read my thread.

    If you serious about your site, you should move to paid hosting. You can't really relied your business on a free hosting provider.

    They are simply adding this to any new website to get search engine higher ranks for key word "web hosting"

    I've heard they can be slow and your data isn't always safe. Just pay a few bucks per month from a host on DP.

    No, it's just some harmless tracking code for analytics.

    and this analytics code can be removed easy, right there. Just ask the hosters and they will tell you how to do it.

    If an account fails to get at least 10 visitors per day and it is not changed in 14 days, user account is terminated.
