Free websites

Hey guys

I have started a small business which is doing quite well and use freewebs for the site. Now that it is doing better I want my site to have more space but freewebs changes horrid prices for tiny little things. My friends say that there are a lot of free websites out there which are good but I dont know where to find them or have any experience with them.

Any recommendations?

Thank you

    I know a couple.
    Jam jar, I know they do free hosting but I know they did stop new people signing up due to lack of server space a while ago.

    fast-hoster.com
    I think they do free and paid servering.

    I personally would never use a free host for business. They may take your sire down for too many customers going to your website or maybe worse still place ads for competitors all over your site. Hosting is cheap but essential part of having an online presence like elecricity is to offline business. Hostgator will host your site for £7 a month. That's unlimited bandwithe so no worries about your site going down due to too many customers.

    Thanks but even though it is doing well I want to wait a little longer before I go there. It has been up two months is making a good profit but is the sort of thing that could go up and down so don't want to risk it.
