I am always trying to know about the resources of internet – those I can get for free. Because I love free and open source things. So when I am collecting information about the hosting services, I noticed that – most of the blogger doesn’t like free hosting and nobody said they are good. That’s interesting, because still there are a huge number of people who are using free hosting. My short discussion is about that.

Free Hosting
These are hosting that offers space without cost to you. Actually it’s not like that. They put adverts in banner or text format in your website to sum up the cost. Sometimes they use pop-ups too. So this is the general idea of free hosting.

What you get is a amount of 200 MB to 1 GB space in these kind of free hosting and there is a limit of data transfer rate within 1 GB to 5GB per month. That’s what most of the free hosting is offering. And even you can’t have all the facilities a paid hosting offers – in these free hosting. Some of them may not give you to add your own domain. Or don’t give you FTP access. And the most important thing is there loading time and down time.

I choose
OK – there’s no doubt about that a paid hosting is better than a free one. But what if someone give you the paid hosting in a limited form for free. And this limit is better than any of the free one around the web!!! Yes it’s true. you can enjoy the facilities of a paid hosting in the free hosting that is offered by Byethost. Let’s talk about it.

Byethost is offering two type of free hosting. Vista panel and cPanel. Both are great. You can get up to 5 GB space and 200 GB data transfer in Vista Panel hosting. Addon domains, Park Domains, MX Records, Sub domains and FTP access all are included there.Go to 000space or byethost.com to check the full details. I am quite impressed with their options.

Again there is cPanel hosting – the best I think. You can check it at megabyet.net. A fully professional cPanel hosting. No advertisement, no popups and it’s for lifetime. How could you miss?

How They Afford It?
As I told you- nothing is free. So how they afford this kind of hosting? I have mailed to their support and got good answers. I did following questions and get these answers.

Question 1:How you managed to give away this kind of hosting? I mean how do you afford it?

Answer: We started by offering free hosting using advertising to support us, over time we have had many people upgrade to premium hosting, these monies from upgraded hosting accounts can be used to subsidize the cost of the free hosting.

Question 2: What is your benefit from this?

Answer: Through people upgrading we can build a larger network for all peoples benefits.

Question 3: How much free a person can get?

Answer: This is all subjective to the ‘load’ that a site creates, but if your site is not causing any adverse load, then you can host here for free forever.

These were their answer. That’s a clear and good response. So if you are looking for a hosting without advertisement and want the facilities like paid hosting, I am recommending you to Byethost. They are simply great.

What Is Web Hosting? – Basic Ideas of Web Hosting

Web hosting is the space where web pages or files are kept to make them accessible on the world wide web. After designing a website, the files of the site should be kept in a PC which is connected to the internet. This is called web hosting & the PC having this space is called the server PC.

Types of Web Hosting: Web hosting is mainly categorized based on the operating system of the server PC & performance.

Based on the OS of the server PC there are mainly two types of hosting -

1. Windows Hosting: The hosting where the server PC is run on windows. Windows hosting is a perfect choice if you want to use dotNET, ASP, access database & other Microsoft products. The main limitation of it is that it gives limited access to Telnet, SSH, CGI, Perl etc.

2. Linux Hosting: The hosting with linux run server is called linux hosting. It is more popular than windows hosting for it’s security, access to telnet, SSH, CGI, Perl etc, But if you want to work with ASP, or access database, linux hosting is not for you.

Based on performance, resource (disk space, RAM, CPU) usage & user’s access to the server, there are mainly three types of hosting -

1. Shared Hosting: This is the hosting where some accounts are hosted on the same pc. In this hosting, all accounts share the system resources like RAM, CPU, Disk Space etc together. Here you may have a specific amount of disc space & bandwidth, but there is no guaranty of systems resources. Sometimes you may get 60% of the system resources or sometimes below 30%, which actually depends, on the resource usages of other accounts on the same server at that time. In this hosting, users get the least control over the server. They can only read/write files on the server and can’t change any server settings.

2. VPS (Virtual Private Server) Hosting: VPS hosting is the hosting where several accounts are hosted on the same PC but work as independent PC. In a VPS, accounts have their own RAM, disk space, CPU etc so that the performance of one account is not affected by others. Even if the resources of an account are unused then it won’t be shared with others.

VPS gives users complete control over the server. In a VPS, users get full control so that they can change any settings on the server or can install any required software. Even they can reboot or shut down their server whenever they want.

3. Dedicated Server Hosting: In respect to the functionality, dedicated hosting is same as VPS hosting but in dedicated hosting only one account is hosted in one pc. So when someone buys a dedicated hosting, he actually rents a whole pc instead of part of it.

Dedicated hosting is the best choice for high traffic sites & sites with complex functionality like ecommerce sites or database driven big sites.

For hosting a website, it is possible to set up a server on your own pc & host sites there, but it’s a complex process & requires high performance PC with high speed & reliable internet connection. It also requires running that PC 24 hours a day to avoid downtime. This is why it’s recommended to buy hosting services from professional hosting providers.
