I love this HOST for the following reasons:
1. I am hosted since the last 2 years.
2. They never let me down with support.
3. Downtime was only once for about 2-3 hours (in 2 years).
4. The credit system is very generous. I have 63 credits, which means I do not have to visit their forum for more than 2 months now.
5. The staff is VERY friendly, and they are helpful.
6. About the team, all I can say is they are good people.
7. NO ADS AT ALL on the site or their forums as well.
8. It is a pleasure to be at their forums, which are full of activity.
9. They keep up their commitments, and they even installed Ruby on Rails on one of the member's request.
10. After 6 months of hosting, I even got SHELL access.
11. Fantastico is a BONUS! It works like a charm and helped me in learning.
I RATE :
10 / 10 for Hosting
9 / 10 for Support
10 / 10 for Uptime
10 / 10 for Features
10 / 10 for being FREE!

I never liked trap17. Their Cpanel is outdated, even though on the homepage they say they are "Including latest CPanel, Fantastico". They do not even include fantastico anymore. They give away free domains, but you have to have 250 credit points, which will take forever, because as your post count goes up, it is harder to get points, and their credit system makes it harder for you to accumulate credits. Their forums have barely anything to talk about anymore. Plus their admin yells at you for asking a question about your site in their designated "support" section. I am sorry, but this is not a good web host!

I have been with Trap 17 for over a year and a half now and am very pleased with their services. The hosting is reliable and the forums are pleasant to post in. Everybody is friendly and helpful. It is easy to get the necessary credits to gain your hosting privileges and keep your free site up and running.

Trap17 are a great host. Yes, you need to post in the forum for hosting, but you are accepted quickly and you get not only excellent hosting out of it, but you become part of a brilliant community. I would certainly recommend Trap17 to both new and experienced webmasters - the community provide plenty of help in setting your site up, designing it and generally getting up and running. I have been using Trap17 for around 2 years now, and I have never had any major issues, ether on the forum or with the hosting itself. The servers are fast and reliable, and the support staff are pleasant and helpful. Certainly give them a go if you want great free hosting.

This is an amazing site! I will stand 100% behind it! Like everyone else has said, it has amazing forums and community. Good admins! Definitely the best host I have found, and I have gone through half of the hosts on this site.
The comment below was added 8-19 by the same person:
Trap 17 is a great community to start off with. The service is excellent - the best I have found yet and I have gone through hundreds of hosts. The people and support is awesome and dedicated! I love the un-restricted cPanel as well. Since I have signed up (just over a month) I have seen the site go down once and only momentarily - other than that, the uptime and speed is amazing! I also signed up, posted, and was approved for hosting in less than an hour or two.

This site is absolutely top notch. I have been with them just over a year, and instead of diminishing like most do, they have improved 100 fold. The features have gone up from 150mb to 500mb disk space, and it is now on 10,000 MB monthly bandwidth. They do not cheat you out of bandwidth like other sites offering this much. You actually do have 10000 mb of data transfer, and this site and its servers are extremely fast. Everyone on the forums are helpful, and the forums are VERY active (now almost 32,000 members - 31,759 at the moment, to be precise!). I love the forums there, and the admins are so friendly, and I can truly say that about the moderators too. When I had a problem I e-mailed their tech support and received a reply in the evening within 20 minutes. The reply was detailed, and to the point, and yes, the problem was solved first time without other companies' wishy-washy solutions like getting you to test things and try thousands of wrong fixes. They are amazing. Non-English sites ARE allowed, except you have to have an English overlook page detailing your site so they know what it is about.
I cannot rate them highly enough. If you do not like the sound of posting on forums, try to get into them. Credits are easy to acquire, and certainly not difficult. Because it uses a credit system instead of post count, quality instead of quantity is important. There is almost zero spam on this forum. And the spam that is there is removed within a couple of hours. Dedicated service, great features, fun forums, helpful support, helpful moderators and fun, yet dedicated and knowledgeable admins make this THE place to be.

The best by far; you will not regret it. You prove yourself by posting on their forum and earning "credits". They are very helpful, and strict with people who are "bad eggs". Tons of features add to this. Support is instant on the forums. Trap17 worked hard to ensure complete customer satisfaction - and that I appreciate.

The only bad thing about this host is that they do not allow non-English sites. That is very sad, because I posted and posted on their messageboard. At the end, I noticed their Terms of Service rule: Only English web sites allowed.

I have been with trap17 for over a year now, and my site has grown so greatly that I moved onto one of their larger paid hosting plans, and what they say is true: the free webhosting plan offers all the same things as their paid hosting plan does. I really suggest this site to anyone looking for a reliable free host server!
