Before I started paying for my webspace I tried numerous free web hosts. Some were good and some were a waste of time, but it makes me sympathise with anyone who wants to create a website for free but doesn’t know where it should be hosted. My life was made a lot easier when I discovered today’s site.

Free-WebHosts.com is a directory made up of many free site hosts out there, all of which are given a score based on certain criteria and can be reviewed and rated by users. On their homepage you are greeted with a little information about what their site is about followed by featured free hosts, new features their site offers and the most recently available hosts that they list.

A few sections are worth highlighting. For anyone dipping their toes into getting their site online, I’d recommend reading through the help pages on the right hand side of the page. If you have an idea of what you want from your host you could go straight to their Power Search which allows you to search for hosts that fit your specifications. If you would prefer to see hosts that are scored highly then head on to their Best Free Web Hosting page instead.

There are a lot of great features available that make it a lot easier to find the perfect website provider for you, many of which you will easily discover while surfing the site. I do however feel it’s important to point out that, although the focus is on webspace, the directory does also have comparisons for Free File Hosting and Free Image Hosting too.

Mostly this directory is an excellent resource for anyone that wants a site but doesn’t want to part with any money. Saying that, you should take some of the user ratings with a pinch of salt – I have seen some excellent hosts get low scores because a few people have had bad experiences and the people with good ones rarely feel the need to go on a free web host directory to talk about it.
