Which one would you choose: paid or free web hosts?

[stiffen8]

Hey buddies! I’m planning to run an online store. I have started the designing and development part. The next thing in my list is to hire a web hosting firm. However, I am not aware of this service. Thus, I am here to seek help from the forum members. Please enlighten me with free and paid web hosts. It would be great if you could tell me which one is a reliable option. If you can educate me on the pros and cons of free web host as well as paid web hosting service, then I would be highly obliged.

Free webhosting is not so batter.

As far as my experience i prefer only paid hosting plans because its reliable and secure also.........in this way i got my web hosting plans through this site TuckTail.com , As for hosting services, you can order them hosting services and this site is quite good for hosting plans........

If I pay I can question them and they are liable to answer my questions. If its a free hosting..I can question them but can;t expect better service. Its up to me and perception differs from person to person.
