No, free web hosting is not recommended for serious websites. Free hosts typically have severe limitations: slow speeds, limited storage, forced ads, no custom domain, poor uptime, and minimal support. For just $2-3/month, paid hosting offers much better performance, reliability, and features. IONOS starts at just $1/month →

Shared hosting means multiple websites share one server's resources, making it affordable ($2-10/month) but with limited performance. VPS (Virtual Private Server) hosting gives you dedicated resources on a virtual server, offering better performance, more control, and scalability ($20-80/month). Choose VPS if you need more power or expect high traffic. Learn more in our guides →
