What are the benefits of offering free hosting?
I'm honestly curious - we also provide web hosting, but never considered having free accounts - we figured they would just take up bandwidth for the paying customers. Or do you have them all on one server?

Its probably a good way to get new customers in the door at a fairly minimal cost, so that if/when they decide to upgrade to a paid plan they will most likely do it with the same host they are already using.
