“Finally, my site is being seen...”
Written on: 22/05/2013 by albertoderio (1 review written)
Most hosting sites make you pay extra for advertising. I gotta say I'm lovingFVS because they give you a coupon for Google Adwords with some of their packages. Google is pretty much the best when it comes to getting your site out there, and I think FVS must realize this. Basically you sign up, click on the free extras link in your cPanel, and you get the details for your coupon in your email. The rest is through Google. Since using Adwords, I've been able to increase the traffic to my... (read more)

“Website Builders for Dummies”
Written on: 21/05/2013 by austinedesuza (1 review written)
I'll be the first to tell you that looking at HTML is like reading Sanskrit for me. You couldn't ask me to code my way out of a paper bag, to tell you the truth. I'd also wanted my own website, but the ones I've tried to make in the past were mostly text. It's hard to get people to care about your site when it's just a bunch of black and white writing with some images scattered here and there. This is why I'm glad I found Free Virtual Servers. Their hosting packages include a bunch of... (read more)

“You Had Me at “Free Hosting for Life””

As someone who's been hosting her own website for years, I must say I'm extremely impressed. Most websites that offer free hosting are subpar, to say the least. FVS is not one of these. They do charge a one-time setup fee but compared to most hosting sites, this is about as cheap as it gets when it comes to quality; plus, this one-time fee gets you a lifetime of hosting. Most sites require you to pay monthly. FVS sets you up with a domain name, website builder (great for those of us with... (read more)

“A reliable server is a necessity for any ecommerce...”
Written on: 07/04/2013 by PretPinas
A reliable server is a necessity for my business. Unlike what freevirtualservers.com has been offering, most of web hosting providers which I've looked into are very costly or if not, there are a lot of limitations. One thing which I'm liking so far is their ability to provide answers to my questions right away. This is no brainer, if you have a business and you want to go online, just sign-up for the FREE hosting first to try it on and then just upgrade as needed. (read more)
