Recommendation:  WebProvider offers your-name-first subdomains and quite a few extras. Their main drawback is really their offering of a wimpy 10mb webspace which is pretty meager in today's world. However the ability for the user to define their own ad banner placement is an unusual luxury for a free web hosting service.

Company statement from website: "Here at WebProvider we have over 200 MBps of dedicated bandwidth. Our high performance Cisco routers have redundant, fault tolerant, fast DS3 connections through multiple providers to major peering points across the Internet. A full 100 MBps backbone and close proximity to the Mae-East Trunk Line further set our service apart as the fastest you can get. Period. Our priorities here at WebProvider are directly related to you the user. We realize that consistent uptime, as well as the continuous privacy and security of your website is extremely important to you. These are our main priorities and concerns and we are constantly working to maintain and improve them for you. We're not content being the best free web hosting company around now. We're also determined to remain the best web hosting company in the future! That's why we're constantly developing and adding new features, to give you the most complete set of web tools available to you at little or no cost! For example, recently our users gained the ability to update their DNS tables and MX records."
