I think this information can be useful for you. If you plan to get your website, here is one good free web hosting provider to choose - 000webhost.com
But, sometimes 000webhost doesn't send an activation email and your account status is shown as "PENDING_EMAIL_CONFIRM". That's because 000webhost sends an activation email to USA residents only!
If you didn't receive an activation email, don't lose your time on 000webhost.com. There are another pretty good free web hosting providers.

How to Do a Redirect With GooglePages?
If you are planning to create or already created a website with GooglePages you must be aware of one little thing. If someday you'll want to move on to a regular, paid web hosting there will be a problem to do the right redirect to the new website.
How can I create the right redirect from an old website to the new one?
The best way to tell the search engines that your website moved, is with permanent redirect. The permanent redirect, which is referred to as 301 redirect, "sends" users and search engines from the old URL to the new one. The problem is that you cannot use any of 301 redirect methods with GooglePages.
You can accomplish the GooglePages redirect with Meta Refresh (method, that refreshes a web page after a given time interval). The disadvantage of Meta Refresh redirection is, that search engines will show the old website address in the search results. In addition, Meta Refresh is common spam technique. It is recommended to set the meta refresh to at least 5 seconds.
Meta Refresh Tag Sample
Redirect to www.mywebsiteadviser.com after 5 seconds:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;url=http://www.mywebsiteadivser">
Place the code between the <head> and </head> tags.

Free Web Hosting Advantages
- The big advantage of free web hosting is the zero price. There are some free web providers that will not put ads and banners on your website.
Free Web Hosting Disadvantages
- Ads - Most free web providers impose ads/banners on your website.
- Disk Space - Usually you will have about 250-300mb of disk space only.
- Account Expiration - Some free web hosts will disable your account after default expiration time.
- File Size Limitation - Usually you cannot upload/store file bigger than a half megabyte.
- Technical Support - From my bad experience, sometimes I didn't receive any answer. So, if you have a problem ...
- Reliability - Before you are going to open a free web host account, try to get feedback from anyone about this free provider. And my recommendation, have a backup of your website.
