What Free Hosting Offers to YouFree hosting offers you web hosting service at zero cost. It covers basic hosting services like certain amount of webspace, bandwidth, and so on. Even though free hosting is free of charge it offers disadvantages to users. Because it is free, some free hosting companies puts advertisements in your web pages in terms of banner ads, text links, pop ups and etc. to cover their cost and hopefully make a profit from it. They set a limit also in amount of disk space storage, amount of bandwidth and no scripting. Sadly, most free website hosts provide a subdomain of their own domain name instead of letting their users to use top-level domain name for free. You can’t find a free web host with no free subdomain of their own domain name. Who Can Use Free HostingFree hosting is the best option to avail if you are going to host a personal website like a blogging website. Just remember that your limited in webspace and bandwidth so don’t upload to much images and videos. A free web host is not recommended if you are building a business website for the reason that it needs more webspace, more secure and more reliable web host. Good Web Hosting SitesBefore you host your website, make sure you already had a domain for it. If not, you may go to godaddy to register one.

I wouldn’t recommend going with free as the site is more than likely to go down a lot and will offer no support. Go for really cheap hosting and a free domain name: http://www.hostingcouponoffer.com
Free web hosting support 1-click forum install: http://000wh.com no sub domain name(you must have one).
the problem with free forum hoster is that they will show a lot of ADs on your website and distract the user attention, if you are serious about making and running a forum, then I would suggest get hosting that provides a lot of stuff with them like a lot of space + a lot of bandwidth, here is the one I found provide unlimite space + unlimited bandwidth for less than $5, its great..
