I advise everyone to STOP USING freehosts as their main sources of income. Buy some domains, build sites and pay for shared hosting. It's like $10 a month.

Plus, you need to look at free hosts as temporary income only. When you own the site you can sell it and cash in at the end of the day. You can't sell someone elses site so to speak.

This is why I always save my posts so that I can post them else where if necessary in future time.

Moral to story, build your own.

I did notice over a 3 year span that the traffic to the twan blogs too a serious nose dive from an organic point. I did have one that had about 250k organic visitors over 3 years. That was great. But its temporary.
I hope mikesinner finally started using his own hosting...otherwise he'll be screwed if for some reason twan's shit doesn't come back up.

You're totally right though, free hosted blogs can be a great addition to your network/income BUT it should never be your entire network or the focal point of your business.

The only reason I hope his stuff comes back online is because whenever I created a new blog I would always add them to his directories so my blogs were indexed quickly and gained a little boost of early traffic.
