They have changed URL's again... the FreeWebServices.net homepage now redirects to 2ip.com.

I have been using their web hosting services for four years now, and the quality has really digressed by the week. Their customer service skills are non-existent, other than the "liveperson chat", and that is obviously staffed by an outside source. They have to rebuild their web server hard drives about every six weeks (they say "sorry, our sysadmin is working on that"), but your website and domain are down during this time. HostDepartment should be shut down by some form of Internet Better Business group. It has slow transfer speeds, much down time, and poor support. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE USING THEIR SERVICES.

Every host I found was bad big time. I will not name them because they are still going, but of course I would use it for about a day or so, and give up. Most did not have FTP, PHP, JavaScript etc., so when I saw this one I thought it sounds okay, so give it a go. I started web design in 2002 and did not like any host I found. They cost heaps, and had no decent services/features, etc. Well here I am seven months after saying this looks ok. Now it looks brilliant. Sometimes it is down, but I can forgive that, and you can hotlink to PHP forms and ASP.NET and that other stuff, so I am happy. Only 1000 files are allowed, but that is OK too, and they usually respond in a day or two. Freewebservices.net, you seriously rock. And 1GB of storage space is coming soon, so that will be even better.

Cheap, affordable hosting! That is what I can say about Host Department. Not only is it cheap (or free), it also provides the friendliest service. Everyone in the support team is polite and patient. They treat you as someone that they know and a friend rather than just another customer. What is more to ask of a web hosting company that provides great service? I am just happy I found this company.

I have been using Host Department’s service for sometime now, and what can I say... their service is great, especially their customer and technical support team. They are there for you 24/7 everyday, and they will entertain all of your enquiries, no matter how minor or major it can be. What impresses me most is the fact that they *fixed* the problems you are encountering. Many web hosts just entertain your call for help only to abandon you halfway down, but not Host Department. They will follow through with all problems encountered in a timely manner. If they cannot solve it in time, they have the guts to tell us about it, and once it is done, they will again inform us. Horray for Host Department! If you are looking for a host, this is one I can vouch for!

First of all, they advertise "unlimited bandwidth", which is impossible. My experience was negative. These folks had no support at all. I requested a refund, and so far I have not seen my money back.

I have no problem in recommending Host Department. Their service and support has always been tops, and their prices and features are definitely number one. The extra mile they go to give personalized attention has been a breath of fresh air in a time where customer service seems to be forgotten about by most organizations. Our experience with this webhosting service has been more than #1 in my books, and they are highly recommended by our organization.

For free hosting provider that provides free modules for their user, Host Department is AWESOME! I have tried their module, and it is COOL! And HostDepartment provides free email account for my web hosting. Just try it! There is a company banner at the bottom of the page, but it does not disturb the view.

Host Department and FreeWebServices.Net are COOL! I have tested it, and it is great. We can use the module, such as site studio, gallery, shout box, guest book, rss, blog, stat counter, forum (coming soon), cv generator (coming soon). And it is all FREE. Also we can use ftp to upload files, file manager, and they give free email address too. Join the FreeWebServices.Net and get your COOL free site and have fun with it.

All free hosting accounts hosted as subdomains on hostdepartment.com were deleted!!! :-(

An email from FreeWebServices.net (HostDepartment) says,

"We would like to inform you that we have successfully migrated our current free hosting web server to the NEW Free Hosting Server. Please be informed that the new web hosting service is using a totally different system from the previous one. It did not allow us to move the previous web server files to this new free hosting environment. Therefore we do encourage you to sign up and upload your files again to this NEW Free Web Hosting Service. The NEW Free Web Hosting System will bring you to THE NEXT GENERATION of free website services. It is equipped with many advance features such as Stat Counter, Forum Board, CV Generator, Guest Book, Message Board and Photo Album."

The free subdomains available through HostDepartment and FreeWebServices signup pages are the same domain name choices, just sorted in different random orders (you have to check the "Show all CC-TLD" box on their signup form to see the full list):
