    Question Looking for new hosting company

    I have a next to zero budget. I supplement my income by building sites to showcase merchant products by joining their affiliate programs to make a commission on sales.

    For years, I have been using the free hosting offered by Netfirms. In exchange for the free hosting they put their own banner at the top of the page. It doesn't look bad so free hosting is worth it.

    They recently made changes and have notified customers using the free hosting that the free hosting will end on June 30. If you don't upgrade to a paid plan your site will be taken offline. They only gave a weeks notice so I am in a panic to find another hosting company and get all my sites uploaded. There is no way I could afford to upgrade all my free hosting sites.

    I have been searching and they all seem to say free hosting with no banners, no popups etc. I know you don't get something for nothing so I am confused. I read one that said you just had to post on their forum. I don't want anything like that. A banner is fine but no tricks and funny business.

    Can anyone please tell me of a good hosting company that offers free hosting? I don't mind the banner at the top of the page but I would hate popups.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    I am pretty sure that your domain registrar will let you create site on their server.

    if you can't, go to devhub.com and then create site and point your dns over to their servers.
