I ran one of the larger free hosts and managed and hosted around 100 others; security is a big issue. If you get mildly popular the number of attacks will jump up. Hope you know more than I did and that the tech evolved enough; the hosts I built and managed were 10+ years ago and I had to create my own freehost specific patches to php, apache and mysql to protect from abuse. You do not do dynamic so that makes a large difference, still they will try!
Edit; we also made custom scanners for porn and phishing; especially phishing, at that time had a simply pattern; the phishing page(s) would have keywords in them and would not be linked anywhere on the domain while not being the index.html. That allowed us to move almost all of them automatically.
