    I gone for a free hosting company and they have suspended my account saying my account quota is over.I am now going for another free hosting provider for 1month and then change over.My question is,will it be a problem if I keep changing hosting providers for the SEO and ranking of my site?
    I mean will the on page SEO factors in anyway affect my websites search engine and ranking position?
    Also I am seeing website which is now unavailable due to the suspension of my hosting account still ranked at no.7 for google search results.
    Will my website disappear from search engines during google's next crawl?

    I don't think changing hosting providers will affect your SEO if the transfer is seemless and there's no downtime. Since your account is suspended/unavailable however...

    Changing the provider has been commonly believed to affect the SEO and Page Rank efforts. However, it seems like it is wrong as far as the Page Ranking is concerned. Under normal circumstance this should not happen!
    Make sure though that you still keep your domain name after the tansfer. The domain name is the one which affects the PageRank, so if you do not change that one, it should not affect you.

    Nevertheless, in some instances your SEO algorithm might be affected.
