Would you choose a hosting company just because it offers a free domain?

You need to check the hosting cost. Free domain with hosting might be a marketing gimmick as they might have already added domain cost with your hosting. Compare price with various hosting before you grab this offer.

Every one in the world love things that can be offered for free, but in this case if it is offered for free I will take it on the condition that I gather enough funds to get a paid one so I can get all the features available.
 
Most apps require you to spend money, but did you know there are apps that could help earn money instead? That’s right, doing some simple tasks like completing surveys and offers or even just using an app, you can make a few bucks.
 
It all still go down to the purpose of getting the hosting plan. Why you need to host whatever it is you want to host.on a free plan. But go for paid plans if it's business you're in for
 
When I was trying to launch my first website, I also heard about offers that gave me free domain with hosting, however, I did not go after that offer because the hosting charges were high
 
People who do not have money to buy a domain will probably go for free once. so it all depends on your financial capability, if you have the money then you will probably go for paid ones which is the best.
 
I actually started using freewebhost because I was given a free trial to run an experimented website so since then I have liked to make use of free web host.
 
Yes I will definitely choose a web hosting domainservice if it was free because from what I have got that website hosting is not really a very big deal and so I can try the free domain hosting service.
 
I think it would be a good idea if the domain name and host is from the same provider,though it is actually an incentive for clients,but for that period of time it is not actually a bad idea provided they are up to task.
 
There are a lot of web hosting companies that offer a free domain for the first year if you buy one of their hosting plans. There are conditions applied if you want to use this feature and the primary condition is you need to pay for the one-year hosting fee in advance. A lot of website builders like weebly, wix etc also offer free domain if you buy their premium service for the term of one year and the free domain applies only for the first year. If you choose to build a website through wordpress premium service, you also get a free domain for one year.

Here are some of the companies that offer free domain if you are buying their hosting plan.
Hostinger
iPage
Bluehost, etc.

Would you choose any of the aforementioned companies just because they are offering free domain with their hosting plan?
I think yes I will choose any of the company you made mentioned of in this thread if am ready to build my own website in the nearest future I guess, because they all seems to be friendly with their customers I guess.
 
When you are offered something for free, hey companies will be charging extra on other things. Therefore, you also need to be very careful about how much you are paying in total
 
A lot of web hosting companies that are offering free domain are actually reliable companies, for example, you can get a free domain from ipage or hostgator, these are reliable companies

Of course I will choose a domain because you offer free domain names and also free domain hosting because I do not have interest in registering domain names right now.
 
I think choosing a hosting company depends on the quality of hosting services and the price, and not because something like giving hosting free or website builders for free
 
You can get a free domain if you buy hosting from ipage. The lowest charge for hosting on ipage is $35 for the first year. If you want to minimize your cost, you can try ipage.
 
I am yet to build my website but by the time I am ready I would definately not be going for free domain providers except to test run purpose because free things like that don't have quality.
 
Hosting companies like ipage, hostgator, bluehost are reputed hosting companies. You can get a free domain if you buy their hosting plans. I guess you can trust these companies for hosting services. Currently, namecheap has also announced free domain plan.
 
That's what I love and look out for when choosing a hosting provider. I don't like buying hosting plan from one provider and buying domain from another. Many popular hosting platforms like bluehost offer this.
 
Actually no because most of the free domain given can not do what you exactly want them to do for you do it's better to buy than the free given one.
 
Definitely I would choose a hosting platform that offers to give le free domain name just because of the fact that it will stop me from wasting more money in developing s website
