    stay away from free hosts. Some of then stea your traffic. Starting out, you really dont need a dedicated server. Go with the virtual.

      Virtual hosting is enough for you as newbie. The basic virtual hosting(the one you need to start) costs about $10 per month, so if you can live without ten bucks monthly, buy yourself a virtual hosting.

          Would say go virtual if you can spare $10 or so monthly, otherwise go free but chose a freehost that has a good reputation.

            Can't say about the service but the specs on the webair account is nice for that $10 plan.

                Listen to the peeps. Virtual hosting is definitely the way to go. Make sure you're getting a good deal, but don't go with the cheapest of the cheap, because you get what you pay for.

                  I agree stay away from a freehost you'll probally best best going with virtual server.

                  Becareful not to get too small of an account. I've seen many a newcomer get burned trying to do TGP Galleries on starter virtual servers.

                  Gel's own piece of the pie.

                      I agree Stachy free hosts are not in your best interest. Go to Uncensored-Hosting . You can always upgrade your plan as your site grows. Or move into a multi-domain hosting plan.

                          It depends from what you have to do, but you can start with free hosts, switch to virtual or dedicated server as soon as you understand how the thing works. Otherwise start directly with virtual

                                The price/specs is not the main reason to choose host. Webair is not the cheapest one, but the most stable one.

                                  Buy the virtual hosting. Only use free hosting provided by sponsors to build galleries using their content then link those pages to the paid one
                                  .

                                          And when you can't afford hosting for $10, or you just want sth to learn about this bussiness and don't burn any bandwith(until you've enough skills to make money), go with revsharehosting.com
                                          They don't shave, but you're limited only to some sponsors & they're cutting part of your revenue.
