Search Engine Optimization

Web sites that offer free hosting usually offer you what is called a split domain name. In fact some web hosting sites will still stick you with a split domain name even after you have paid for hosting so be careful.An example of an owned domain name would www.healthywealthyandwise.com. If you choose a free hosting service your domain might change to look something like www.freesitehosting.com/healthywealthyandwise.Which looks so big and funny too. Yes i am serious it looks funny and very unprofessional

Another big drawback of the split domain that comes with free web hosting is that most URL submission services simply will not accept it as a URL or only accept it as a short version.So let' say for example that you decide to enter www.freesitehosting.com /treasure chest into a search engine submission tool. The next thing you know, when your site is listed in the search engines, your full domain name is list, but when you click on it, it leads you to some strange portal or information about how to register a domain name with your host. Even worse it sometimes informs the person searching that your domain name is for sale, which of course makes it look like you have gone completely out of business!

All web hosts impose a limit on the amount of traffic your web site can receive per day and per month. This means that if your site attracts visitors beyond a quota your free web host implied on your site the web host will disable your web site (or perhaps sends you a bill for the hosting of the excess traffic).100MB traffic per month is too little for anything other than your personal home page yet that is exactly the amount of bandwidth that most free web hosting deals offer.
