Free webhosting services

Some facts about brilliant freehosting Awardspace: AwardSpace offers excellent technical support. Replies are quick, to the point, and resolved more quickly than most companies even register a support request.
While free hostings are everywhere, any that I tried are not satisfactory even to host a pleasure web site. Awardspace has good loading speed and server uptime though they do a lot of maintenance but fortunately they send properly notice before that. What is fantastic there is their support, really good response time and straight forward solutions on the problems you ask.
The feature offerings themselves are extremely generous: a fair amount of webspace and bandwidth. Even these are not set in stone – I remember going over my monthly bandwidth limit due to an influx, and AwardSpace admins very kindly reset my limit.
There are two little problems on an otherwise perfect system: the hosting control panel does not feature very sophisticated file managers or back up methods, and they have a fancy (and un-published) list of ‘bad words’ which causes 404 errors to appear when present on a particular page. While I understand that the second of the two helps prevent abuse of the free hosting system, I do wish they would, sometimes in the near future, implement a system of ‘trusted’ users for whom they could waive that issue.
