-Space- Space depends on the requirement of ones website at least 500mb is enough if you are just starting

What Useful a Free Host Can Provide?
Apr 12th
There is an old saying, “world run on the tracks of deals, i.e. a simple give and take process”. This simply applies on free hosting service, one need to sacrifice one or the other thing…
If any host promises free hosting excluding ads or banners, then one should keep in mind that it is not going to be purely free.
For an instance, xyz.com, assures “Cost-free, Banner-free” hosting, but in fact what they truly assuring is that – in the case when user register a domain from them for $25 per year (some may at $8.95 per year) or if the user wishes the transformation of domain at the payment of $35. In that precise circumstance only they will provide the user an absolutely free hosting of 100 MB, the reason behind their capability of offering $5 dollars for every referral to xyz.com’s “free” hosting. Smart deal, right!!
Thus, from above it is clear that what the free hosting actually mean.
So, given below are some of the guidelines on which a user can rely upon…
1) One should give preference to a free hosting provider that puts forward the condition of publishing ads on his/her site in comparison to a host that claims not to. Companies putting ads are comparatively more steady and the user is always aware about the conditions of collaboration with them, “one make site” + “companies put ads” = Win-Win. However, beware!! If the host user chooses claims that the user is not restricted with ads on his/her site, one simply gives keys in the hands of thief, as the host can swiftly make enough money by for e.g. selling user’s e-mail address or shrinking the available space to compel user to upgrade to a paid package.
