What are your views on using free sites such as freewebs, weebly etc? I have a weebly website and just pay for my own domain name, it works well as its just a website to broadcast our new products for our business.

if you just want to practice to be a webmaster then you can use freewebs for that.but if you do business then you should buy a domain and host.

They plastered your sites with their ads. Not worth it in my opinion.
You can get cheap hosting for about $4/month and have total control over your site.

if you are not eforrdable to pay for a domain, or you just a beginner like me, i think you can try free doamin first.

But don't try to use free domain as a online business sites.
because your site will have unprofessional look.

I have a free website, but I don't use it for a profitable gain. I think if you are conducting a business of some sort, the user above me is correct, it does not look very professional if you have a free host. Maybe if you're a beginner in making web pages all together, start out with a free one, but if you are trying to manage a business, either learn your web skills or hire someone to make you a nice, formal page with a paid domain.
