In October last year Hosting Advice.com claimed that AwardSpace is encouraging the entrepreneurial spirit. You should definitely check out their article. What they said couldn’t be truer. The Free Web Hosting services that AwardSpace is providing are surely encouraging the existence of an immense number of web projects. Web projects which otherwise wouldn’t be presented in the web.
But why does the free web hosting exists?
Let’s find out together!
What is Free Website Hosting?
Private web hosting providers are the main reason the Internet is what it is today. If there were no private providers, it would be virtually impossible for the end user – people like you and me – to create their own websites. And if we weren’t able to vivify our ideas, projects like Google would be not only unthinkable but needless as well.
Without the private initiative, made possible thanks to the first web hosting providers, we were never to see the millions of cat videos, but also projects like Wikipedia, Facebook, and Khan Academy.
And of course, the first web hosting services were paid. And pricey.
Which is understandable. The technology was new. And to maintain servers and a team is expensive as well. Customers were scarce due to the lack of people with access to the internet and the low knowledge of this brand new technology.
With time, things started to change. Now the access to the web is more of a human right than it is a caprice.
And while in the western culture, this is the way we perceive the web, there are still places in the world, and even people in our part of the world that are dreaming to have to build a website, but paying for a hosting is just not possible.
This is what made the Free Web Hosting services necessary.
Free Web Hosting is a service that provides the customer with most, if not all, of the features of the Premium Web Hosting services. Free of charge.
How Free Website Hosting Services are Boosting Creativity
There are more reasons for you to exist on the web, than not to. Frankly, I can’t find any reason for someone not to be presented online by his art, pieces of work, business, e-commerce shop, or another web project. Yet, if you are still on the defense about the importance of web presence of your business, check out our article featuring 5 Reasons to Build a Website for Your Business.
When AwardSpace pioneered the free website hosting, the impact that these services were about to make, was way out of sight. We were unable to perceive how much such a service could boost creativity, entrepreneurship, and how it inspired people to show themselves, to learn how to create a website.
Having the opportunity to build your website, without paying a dime, is making it easier for people to get on the board, to decide that it is already time for them to build their web presence.
And honestly, most of us are a bit late. Yet, the as vast the number of websites is, there is always room for yet another one. The users of the internet will be always more than the webmasters. And even webmasters are visiting other websites. Thus, you will always have an audience for your website. Even when everyone has its own.
The availability of a free website hosting service is not only helping you to make the decision to be online. It overcomes all of the objections that may occur. And once that happens, you have nothing more to do, except to vivify your ideas.
If the capacity to overcome all the objections of you not to start your web project, by making it absolutely risk-free, is not boosting creativity and entrepreneurial spirit, I don’t know what will.
Here is what you need to know if you are Creating a Business Website.

Is Free Website Hosting Safe?
I agree, the possibility of your web project to fail, and thus for you to lose money is one of the main objections you may have in order not to start a web project. Yet, you may be scared of how long will the company alive, and ergo how long will your website live.
There are many reasons to be cautious when you get something for free.
Is it secure? How can I trust a brand that gives something for free?
Often, when mentioned in online media, the free website hosting services are accompanied by the assumptions of limitations and/or disadvantages.
Still, AwardSpace is here for you since September 2003. The company was started with the intent of offering free website hosting. We never pushed our customers to upgrade, and we never will.
What we offer is a reliable partnership. A reliable home for your website. A free website hosting service with no ads. And the best part? It is forever yours.
Do you still ask your self ‘Is Free Hosting Safe?’

Start Web Presence with Free Website Hosting
Do you have an idea? Are you passionate about something? Do you want to share it with everyone else? Or you have a business and you want to bring more color to it. Then maybe it’s time for you to create your own blog or website.
What’s just around the corner can actually turn out to be something good. Do you want to miss your chance? I don’t think so!
Creating a website is easier than you might think. Having an idea means you’re halfway there. Here is how to start a blog for free.
Once your web project is up and running you can easily get absorbed. You get too excited, you are enthusiastic and sometimes this leads to forgetting important matters. Once you get to this point, make sure you keep a track of your results so far.
Check out this list of 7 signs that your website is performing better than you think.
Alternatives to Free Website Hosting
Of course, free hosting is more or less narrowed. If you are using free services, it is impossible to create a huge business website, which gets tons of traffic. Yet, for your startup ideas, personal sites, and other small to medium web projects, free hosting is the perfect partner.
Yet, once your web project grows up, and start to pay its expenses, you will be able to get a more suited service. Like, say, Shared Hosting. But if your website is way too large, or gets too much traffic (which is the final cause of creating a website), you may want to check out our Semi-Dedicated or VPS Cloud Hosting services.
Speaking of our premium services, you may have noticed and want to know why we charge more for the second year.
But until the time for you to upgrade comes, feel free to use our free website hosting.
