Top Free Web Hosting

 

Before I tell you about the free web design software, I assume that you know the difference between free web hosting and free web design software. Let me try to provide both the resources. But before moving on...I would like to highlight few practical elements for your consideration.

If you are thinking of building a profitable or commercial venture website and making money from it, never go for these free elements. Remember to start to business you must invest in the right products and resources. It's OK to know how to make a free website if you are planning for a casual website say like personal, kids, church or family in nature or create a website just for fun!

 

Remember you want to make a website but you don't know how to choose your right domain name, your niche, your keywords, your on-page and off page SEO criteria, building back links and value exchange and much more. Making professional websites is not a great deal these days, thanks to technology you get great softwares but the important factor remains in ranking well with search engines. You must be in figuring within 30 of the specific search term in Google. Else get lost in the information highway. A hub or a blog can be better if you are looking for free options.

 

OK, now coming back to your request about free software for web design, they are below:

In case you are wondering about the best web design software but not a free one here it is XSitePro2. This costs one time $197 but a great value for money as you can make unlimited professional designed websites like a pro. I personally used front page, dream weaver but nothing compared to XSitePro....this is just a superb piece of software.

 

Free Web Hosting:

 

First the major disadvantages of a free hosting:

 

Reason 1) You do not get your own domain or web identity name, but you have to be happy with a sub domain type extension which looks very scrappy, lengthy and unprofessional.

 

Reason 2) Search Engines never find you for indexing, hence you can never expect true organic traffic automatically.

 

Reason 3) Your website will be full of banner and other advertisement of the free hosting provider.

 

Reason 4) Very very small and limited web space.

 

Reason 5) Not a good control panel from where you control the website building.

 

Reason 6) Your visitors do not get a good user experience and hence may not like to visit your website again.

 

Reason 7) You will miss the freebies like professional templates, easy website design system what the paid hosting provides.

Reason 8) You hardly can make money from this free website and if at all you try to you need to spend a lot of advertisements.

 

You can get your free sub domain name extension and a portion of the disk space to store your web files. There are few providers in the market who give you this opportunity. The most popular being free Yahoo webhosting known as Yahoo Geocities. If you are planning for a small personal website for fun or just an experimental to start with. The web-builder wizard is also available with this.

 

There are few other similar ones like Free Webhosts. This is probably the best one.

Thanks Rethansmith, writeanything for your views and comments. Being a professional web developer (not mere designer) my experience is that these 'free' hosting, or making money from 'free' elements in internet don't really work in the longer run. I again reiterate that the point is not really making just a website...but to make a successful website to get organic visitors who can be 'pre-sold'.

I would be keen to get more specific information and links to the websites to prove that 'free' websites do work without spending a dime on additional SE advertisements.

Thanks,

Totally agree yahoo 123. Free websites and free hosting in my experiences is a total waste of time and effort.

Great hub
