server stays up or running.

Free Hosting
• In most cases, these are managed by an individual who is
reselling a small part of his server space to cover up some
revenue. Often the catch is that you have to put their
banner ads on the site.
• The biggest downside of having a free host aside from the
ads is that they are unreliable. You never know when this
person will stop offering the free service.
• This Can be used for educational purposes.
