//-----------| A Little History |---------
It was the 1st webhost that I used when I 1st started off my single page website more than 3 years ago. The storage space has been changing. It increased to 50mb at 1 time & then decreased to 20mb currently. Nobody knows when will it change again.
Then, I used the same account for my personal homepage with more 20mb of files. There was never a problem with the bandwidth & I used to think it was unlimited.
//-----------| Currently |---------
I could no longer withstand the popups with my growing site. Loading takes ages since I started off. Even their homepage takes ages to load sometimes, especially when you 1st visit it (without cache yet).
They didn't state the bandwidth limit, at least I couldn't find it till now. However I do surf websites hosted by them & the bandwidth doesn't seem to be high.
I have 2 accounts with them currently because I have switched to other webhosts. They didn't remove me even though the storage are completely empty.
//-----------| Recommendation |---------
Please don't ever use this host if you're using frames. The popups will kill your visitors; the banner will spoil your design on every frame.
However, please note that many free webhosts do have banners or popups, as annoying as Angelfire's.
I recommend this free host only to beginners with a small site.

Slow and popup crazed.
Not a place to put a site if you expect people to see it beneath the blankets of adds.

I honestly don't see why Angelfire is such a popular free host. Their popups are ungodly, in your face, and there are soooo many. Plus, Angelfire is pretty slow, and way too basic. Not recommended at all.

Angelfire is horrible once you've become better at creating sites. The pop-up ads are killing me!
However, I do recommend it for people who have never made a site before. It's pretty easy and they guide you through it step-by-step.

I think it's an excellent host for people who are just starting out. My major disliking is the popups. If you choose to have a banner ad, you assume that that will be the only ad on your website, but unfortunately you'll get popups with it.

They changed the amount of space from 50MB to 20MB without telling me. I've used them for too long now and am looking for another host. I probably wouldn't recommend Angelfire - even logging out is a struggle sometimes.
