Free Hosting with Security & Backups
If you ask someone why they prefer spending a few dollars on a plan rather than a free plan, 70-80% times, the answer will be "safety concern!"
Yes, in the old days, safety was always at stake while rolling on with free web hosting plans, but now, the winds have turned, and so has the importance of the safety factor!
Today, clients look for safety features, backups, etc. with the free plans also, and we've worked on this particular dimension pretty well. After acquiring the selected free plans, we inspected what convenience we are getting in terms of backups, protection, etc.
We were surprised (in a good way), as the results were much better than the past few years, and why not, after all, the competition among hosting providers is at the peak!
Highly secured and WP optimized plan form Accuwebhosting is a perfect example of "reliability in return of nothing." As AccuWebHosting is offering CloudFlare service, that too for free, beating them in regards to safety was challenging for all other free plans. Besides that, it offers WordPress Hosting on CloudLinux OS.
Pointer.gr, no matter isn't that generous with features, but it's the second safest one, providing daily backups! Hostinger's free plan is one the third, and they provide daily backups as well.

Expert's Review
This free hosting plan from Pointer.gr is tremendous, and they're providing enough convenience from their side, to attain appreciations. We appreciated their reliable daily backup facility.
150MB storage is the limit here, which can certainly change certain minds here. For a small, single-page website, with mostly text data, the storage limit is all fine, but if you're looking for a media-rich website than you should look for larger storage.
We highly appreciate the Plesk control panel's convenience here, and speed is Ok for a free web hosting plan. For folks, with a firm word that their website's data won't overflow with 250 MB limit can go for Pointer.gr.

Expert's Review
Hostinger is a highly reputed host, and reflecting their expertise in the department, they've brought a cool free web hosting plan. However, this plan hasn't gained popularity yet. The biggest advantage of this plan, as per our experts, is the daily backups' convenience.
You enjoy the flexibility of Hosting a couple of domains(sites) in 1 account, and that lets you "try out" the plans if you've got two website ideas in your mind. Further, a few of you might find 3 GB bandwidth enough.
We won't hide, there are spoon-full of negatives here! You aren't getting any hosted email account here, and also, we find this free plan cool for absolute freshers only.
