“Free” Hosting
Hosting in return for tasks.
Overview of Free Web Hosting Allowances (2025)
Free hosting services typically cater to small personal sites, blogs, or prototypes, with trade-offs like subdomains, limited support, and occasional ads. Storage (disc space) ranges from 250MB for tiny sites to 10GB for more substantial ones, while bandwidth (monthly data transfer) often hits limits quickly under moderate traffic (e.g., 1,000–10,000 visitors/month). “Unlimited” bandwidth is common but fair use is enforced—sites exceeding ~50,000 daily hits may face throttling or suspension. Other allowances include databases (usually 1–unlimited MySQL), email (0–3 accounts), and sites (1–unlimited, but resource-capped).
Aim for 1–5 GB storage and 50–100 GB bandwidth to balance generosity with costs, plus 1–2 databases and basic SSL to stand out without overcommitting.
