Hi, I try to choose a free hosting company and found that every of them offer different space, bandwidth, and features. I need one to host my own personal web(not business), but I dont know anything about hosting. If you have experience in this matter, would you share an advice with us (esp. me, of course)?

hello friend first of all, it's depend of your needs and the website you want to make!? do a little calcule, and see which space you will need and the bandwitch . Second thing and it's important, choose a company which is Old enough and have a good Data-servers, to do so, when you choose a company, go to netcraft.com and search for it, it's gona give you a great Details about the company. Goodluck!

I'll look and think about your offer. what will happen if I use more bandwidth? should I pay for additional bandwidth or mysite will stop working for a while?

Basically there are two types of hosting. It's either linux or windows. Linux hosting is the most commonly used for hosting websites because it's cheap and reliable. There are lots of webhosting companies that offer pretty cheap prices for hosting your sites. I suggest you first with the basic setup of hosting, and from that you can upgrade the package.
