Free Hosting Services for WordPress Blogs

On the Internet there are many free services that provide web hosting accounts to anyone having a valid email address. But usually these web hosting services impose some limitations that will determine certain server side applications not to work at their full parameters.

Concerning free web hosting services that provide support for deployment of PHP / MySQL applications, the most common limitations imposed are PHP in safe mode and a predefined number of MySQL database file sizes. For example, when you create a blog that runs on a WordPress platform, many errors could appear on a free web hosting account when you want to install certain plugins; even the main WordPress application works with PHP safe mode on.

On Wordpress.com you will find a free service that will allow you to create your blog in a short time. All you have to do is provide a valid email address in order to confirm your subscription to their service. You are allowed to change the blog theme and to customize any existing theme.

From the administration panel or the front page, you are able to add a new post to your blog or to edit the existing ones. You are allowed to add different widgets in your themes and to upload images or videos. Archives and statistics for your Wordpress blog are also part of the service offered by WordPress.com.

You can develop a website made from different HTML web pages with the blog being one of them. The publishing possibilities are unlimited, as well as post appearance customizations through CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).

The bad part is the fact that this service does not allow text ads or other types of ads within your blog and also does not encourage automated content publishing. But this free service is suitable for beginners or anyone else who wants a free web site, because the application is automatically set up and optimized for fast web page loading.
