Free Hosting

Some ISPs offer free web hosting. Free web hosting is best suited for small sites with low traffic, like personal sites. It is not recommended for high traffic or for real business. Technical support is often limited, and technical options are few.
Very often cannot use own domain name at a free site. Have to use a name provided by host like http://www.abcd.com/users/~yoursite.htm. This is hard to type, hard to remember, and not very professional.
