Hi,
I think it depends on your knowledge of HTML. For someone with very little knowledge of HTML geocities is great. People that want to add more advanced features to a website or edit in HTML might not like it as much.
I've only tried a couple of free website services in the past so can't really comment on which is the best.
Cheers,
Arradia  |

Even that is not necessarily true as their are a few sites made in geocities that are very well designed and rank high in google, one in particular in the top 10 for the keyword "home business". However i do see your point and it is dependant on the developers knowledge of HTML as well as their experience in designing sites in general. |

My suggestion would be host.sk (www.host.sk) - they offered free hosting long time ago and people who opened account at then really got it for free... now they have minor $20 one time setup fee, but believe me, it worths much more than that! Server is very fast & stable with no banners, popups, "hosted by" links, with full FTP access, PHP, mySQL, WAP support and what is most important to programmers like I am - full Linux shell access - I dont know any other 'free' server who will give you that. I think its all for 150MB space which should be more than enough for most sites... |

nice suggestion... its too bad that ISPs often support only plain HTML without any server-side techniques and often give really small amount of MBs without ability to attach your own domain name [not sure if host.sk allows you to have your own domain name because i didnt check it lately, but if they dont support that, i withdraw everything good what i said about them]... but why would they when it just comes as a small gift for opening dialup or other personal account... many people even dont know that they have that  |

Kevin,
Although Stone Evans is very smart to have invented the pluginforprofits sites (I'm sure he makes a good amount from them)........ I was more referring to a fully customizable website...... not just a bunch of affiliate programs packed into one site. (which looks the same as hundreds of other sites)
I admire Stone for his ability to sell........
But not really the "free website service" I was referring to........ |

The only problem with free hosting is: you get what you pay for  |

Be careful with FREE websites because you usually get what you pay for! There is a strong possibility of downtime, automatic ads on your site, less control over the site, less professional look, not as many options, etc... They may even up and cancel your site for no reason leaving you with nothing.
Webhosting is pretty darn cheap these days. I would go with a cheap paid service rather than free. |
