Also they do offer latest cPanel, free SSL with Let's Encrypt and some sort of DDOS Protection too. If you want to run couple of small sites it's more than enough. All you have to do is make 10 quality one time posts in their forum. I haven't had any trouble for a long time.

Anyway, I looked at the Free Hosting package, here, I see free domain there, is it subdomain or TLD? I don't get the info there actually.Definitely not a TLD. It's a sub-domain. The hosting is excellent, however like with the VPSs, with free hosting it's always a risk. The likelihood that GigaRocket will give up is remote, but at the same time it is also a real possibility. The owner may rethink the cost involved with the server and licenses. cPanel license with Softaculous on top of it is very expensive.

The standard of posts is very high, so make sure you make 10 quality posts that count and add value. Once you've made the 10 posts, then you don't have to worry any longer, except just check in when there is a cleanup of accounts. Gigarocket periodically does cleanups, and hosted members then need to indicate whether they want to keep their hosting account.
