What’s the worst that can happen when using free hosting? As soon as they start charging money, you just leave for somewhere else. And I say that as someone who is paying for a VPS for hosting (and some other stuff).
- BeetleB 2y agoThat's true for all free stuff. It's a pain to constantly monitor if the service is still free, and a pain to keep migrating. Web hosting is very cheap - especially for static sites. Much easier to pay and forget about it. I've used my provider for 20 years.
- echoangle 2y agoI’m pretty sure the provider will tell the users once they start charging money, they want to convert them to paid customers after all. And migrating a static site every couple of years wouldn’t bother me too much either. If you value the time with your hourly income, it’s probably not worth it, but if it’s fun, it’s fine.
- mwcampbell 2y agoI'm curious, which provider have you been using for 20 years?
