    Off hand, I don't know of any free hosts. I think the problem you may run into is either limitations or ads, or something on your site. The free hosts have to make money somehow, and they will. I would check with a few hosts, I'm sure a few of them would be willing to help you out. Probably for free.

    This is quite common for a free host. I would suggest you to go for paid. Nothing is free in the world though ;)

    That's very true. Nothing is free, and honestly, free hosts will make their money too. They'll make it through ads, or they'll limit you so heavily that you'll need to upgrade to a paid plan to get your stuff to work.

    In that case, I'd look for another host. Just my .02.
