    I want free hosting for my site to practice and build, then i will transfer it to purchased hosting.
    I know 000webhost but they offer too less disk space, i need more than that.

    I am using binhoster.com. They give 10GB space and 100GB bandwidth. But bad customer support. Anyway they have good uptime, ftp access etc.

    I nevеr recommend free hosting bесаuѕe іt haѕ а lot оf disadvantages ѕuсh as
    # Can't add interactive features (chat rooms, message boards, games, online ordering etc.).
    # Your visitors may doubt your credibility.
    # Long аnd hard-to-remember web address (instead of yourdomain.com).
    # No branded emails addresses (you@yourdomain.com).
    # May not be free forever.
    # Limited web page space.
    # Search engines often ignore thеm A HUGE disadvantage!
    # May havе banners and/or pop ads on уour homepage and/or аll оf уour pages.
    # No guarantees оf site availability аnd longevity.
    # Poor help аnd support options (if any).

    1.5Gb disk space should be plenty for practice in building a site. Either way though, there are other providers offering more, but I haven't had experience with any of them first hand and cannot comment. Looking in DP's "Cheap Stuff" forum, you may find what you need :)

    indeed free hosting is good for practice but if you want to build professional website then go for paid hosting because you can access lots features defiantly which not in free hosting and get full support

    Free hosting even for a practice site is risky. Make sure you have backups of everything you do, as you can wake up one morning and everything is deleted from your account. You get what you pay for. Best of Luck

    I've been using myPDV
    You can access all your information from wherever you are around the world. It is pretty much cloud storage excess it is very organised and you can sync all your information to your iPAD or iPhone and manage all your work offline. You can then go online and sync whatever new information or data you have posted. Pretty cool considering you can have everything stored all in the one area. Hope this helps :)

    I don't recommend free hosting even for a practice website. But, that myPDV does peek my interest. OK, so if you do go free to get your tasks and site in order then do make sure you have a backup copy is the only thing that I will add. When you are ready for a paid host come back this way and I am sure you will be able to get many good suggestions.
