[Plugin: FeedWordPress] Running Feedwordpress on Free Hosting Websites

I am setting up a news aggregation. I suspect that the workload would be high to server, but not sure how high until reading your post. Will try your method. Thanks!

I am going to give it a try, because I had the same issues with feedwordpress, I am very close to abandon that project or at least postpone it because it literally kills the server

Alas, it may all have been in vain..
x10hosting have blocked outgoing traffic on port 80 from php..
That means that NONE of my RSS calls work, and no new posts are being created. As it’s a global thing, I can’t redirect the calls around it.
??
Apparently, they are creating a “whitelist” of addresses to unblock, so I’m in touch with their admin people, regarding getting the RSS address enabled.

More hassle I don’t need. I’m also evaluating alternative hosting..

if you are serious get your own hosting. There are a bunch of very good hosts out there, do a little research ask around and get yourself a hosting.
I searched here https://activewebstudio.com/ and went with amerinoc for a replacement to dreamhost, where I had very bad experiences especially with wordpress
