Profuse Host is a very picky host when it comes to free hosting application and has very strict rules. I got lucky, but some of my friends initially got rejected. they had to email the admins, and things are fine now. do not try to cheat the system or you will end up getting your IP banned. Overall, two thumbs up. Currently I am attending college, and this web hosting package is great for students (a lot of web space, bandwidth, and excellent support). if you need to start a fan site or discussion forum, profuse host is the right host for you.

I have used both paid hosting and free hosting services from quite a few other companies before, but I have to say that I was a bit skeptical when I signed up with profusehost. The registration is not immediate because it is actually reviewed by the staff, not a computer. The banner ads are forced at first, but you can have them removed and insert the code yourself (which is a BIG bonus). On top of all the normal features, and the amazing free web space and data transfer available, if you should need more, let them know and they will be more than happy to help you out. The only downfall that I have found is if you register without a domain name and get one later, you have to delete your freehosting account and start over with the domain name. Again, they are very easy to work with when it comes to any problems you might have. All in all, I have to say that I am amazed, and do not plan on changing hosts any time soon!

One thing I like about this free webspace company is the support and the features they offer. Also, if you need more free web space or bandwidth, feel free to contact them and they would love to work something out for you. I needed more web space, and I just explained why I needed it, and they gave me extra 1 GB space. I dealt with many companies in the past that start out, and in few months they disappear. Profusehost, on the other hand, stands out, and they are managed by guys at Psychz Networks. So expect great uptime, support. I did encounter few problems when setting up few scripts, but that is due to the security policies they have setup, and I am guessing that is due to "free hosting" abuses. they also have many rules, and I do mean tons. they all make sense, and none of them should affect you unless you are into sharing, uploading pics, files, etc. This host is for peeps who want to establish a web presence free. I highly recommend them. If you are just starting out, use their web site builder if you are bad at web design. if you are serious about starting your own web site, I recommend buying a domain name first and using that domain name to sign up (free domain hosting). So eventually, you can move to their paid option and get rid of the ads.

Overall, a nice free hosting company if you do not mind obtrusive ads (I do not mind them). Registration can be a pain, especially if you are from another country. I believe there is a bug in the automatic registration form that stalls the registration process if you do not select "United States" as your country. After the registration, you have to wait for confirmation from the staff. In my case, it takes the whole night. But after all that is over, the good things are yours: the ftp server accepts multiple connections so I can upload/download multiple files at the same time, unlike all other free hosting companies. The web hosting speed is very acceptable, and it looks like they allow SMTP, another plus. All in all, I am quite happy with this free host. 1 GB webspace and 100GB transfer bandwidth is, of course, very nice.

On signing up, I was slightly concerned by the rules of the freehosting site, especially the ones concerning freehosting account closure. After signing up, however, I realised how reasonable those rules are. You get a plethora of tools to use on your website, unobtrusive ads, 10GB of space, unlimited SQL databases, and 100GB of bandwith -- for free! You also get Perl and PHP scripts built in, Front page server extentions, and .htaccess compatibility. This is all backed up by a support forum. In short, this is better than many web hosts who you have to pay to use.

it is a good free webspace hosting site, but you have to enter your registration infromation correctly, like the zip code and adress.

The number one best free web hosting service till date. You don't get often to see even a paid web hosting site offering such good features such as ROR (Ruby on Rails) and unlimited sql data bases, good storage space, and excellent bandwidth. Really good!
