Freeola provides the user-friendly MyFreeola control panel to help you manage your hosting resources. This also allows you to control and integrate your other Freeola subscriptions such as broadband or line rental services (if you have them).
It’s great to note that Freeola offers one-click application installations, making it easy for you to set up a blog, online shop, or database with just a simple script. You can also effortlessly install and manage your CMS.
The separately listed InstantPro website builder allows you to create fully responsive, multipage, mobile-friendly websites using a drag-and-drop interface, high-quality stock images, and customizable templates. The best bit is that you don’t need any coding skills to create your website.

Sadly, Freeola doesn’t give you SSL certificates for free, but SSL can be purchased as a separate package. Freeola also doesn’t do discounts, but there are offers on various combinations of services.
You can pay for plans using PayPal or credit cards, and although only annual billing is available, a 14-day money-back guarantee at least gives you two weeks to reconsider your commitment to the website builder.
