I think Astahost is the best free host. Even though you need forum post, it pays off with Free Professional Hosting.
it has as many Mysql databases as you want and a massive 500mb of space for a free webhost provider.

I get people telling me that this is the best

Being new on this site, I haven't actually tried out the AstaHost web hosting but package wise AstaHost is the best. Geocites is horrible, as I tried to host a site on their servers made with M/S FrontPage and the themes on the site packed up. One that isn't on there is 100WebSpace, which I host a site on at the moment. It has brilliant features but i am changing as it has put unsuitable ads on my site, eg. Dating on a Sport site.

So, AstaHost it is then! Like i would say anything else on their board.

After a LOT of experience with other hosting companies, including Googlepages, Freewebs, Byethost, Xtreemhost, and others, I think that this site, Astahost is one of the best, if not the best.

Googlepages is a bit lacking on costumization, and lags on my computer. Freewebs is okay, but all the templates look too clean and uncostumizeable. Also they put advertisements after every 7 paragraphs per page, and only allow 20 pages maximum. The only good thing with them is that they have a good do-it-yourself password protection without the knowledge of htaccess, perfect for beginners.

Byethost and Xtreemhost, I think, are related companies. Byethost's features aren't all that great, and many times redirect you to one of their pages. Xtreemhost is a good hoster, but also has the redirection problem.

Despite the recent problems, I still feel that astahost is the best free host around. Some, however aren't far behind. For instance, Core-Fusion, my previous host, had excellent features. However, their support staff are poor at best. It took them a long time to change my account type, after they changed their post to host system (once it was based on quality posts number of letters, now it's using postcount), in fact, I'd moved to astahost before they changed it. Then there are some slightly better ones, such as byethost, however, as mentioned by the above poster, they occasionally redirect you to their pages, making permanent use of it unfeasible at best for large sites. Freewebs is vile and disgusting. It lacks so many features, and when I see a site hosted on it, I instantly ask the owner to get better hosting. Geocities is almostas bad. Huge advertisements are an irritation, and again, lack of features.

I think addfree and free proessional hosting beats most. I used be a member of a place called hosmatrix who offered the same services as ATA host but they were very very unstable

Their server keps getting hacked, and people were loosing their accounts. The amount of space given was just too little to do anything with.

I recently lost all my info, and account with their hosting..Can't say anything cause its free but i would like some stability. SO i will vote for ATA, even though i am still yet not sure, how their service it

I use hosgator paid hosting but
i really cant find a got free host
and i hope that astahost is the one for me.

I have tried more than a dozon free hosting services. 000webhost.com is the best.

OK so obviously its astahost but are there any free hosts that have all this stuff? ;

* Cronjobs

all the features of aokhost.

Freewebs is the only other free host that I've ever used, but compared to Astahost, it is NOTHING. Freewebs has their own ads, horrible service, and not much space. Astahost, on the other hand, provides lots of space, great service, and you can put on whatever ads you want - for your own benefit! Considering that all you have to do to 'pay' for Astahost is post a few times a week, I think this is much better than having a crappy free service, or an adequate one that you have to pay quite a bit for. Also, Astahost has a great cpanel, about 10x better than Freewebs'.

Personally, I'm going to be sticking with Asta for a long time .
