I’ve had a website for about a year, about a week ago I started having problems. For teh last serveal days have not been able to see my website at all, no matter I to access it, bookmark, link, tying in address, even by logging in a trying to use “view site”. keep getting “connection reset” or other similar errors. Can’t use file manager either. Can’t be my connection because I have no problem accesing numerous otehr websites, including hostwebs.com itself.

Tried to get help via Get Satisfaction, but after I sent in all kinds of info screens shots, they told me they couldn’t help. Beginning to think maybe the free hosting has been eliminated? Any input appreciated.

I’m so grateful to have found Freewebs when I did, back in September 2007.

I’ve had hours of fun learning about the web industry and all that it entails and have loved every second of it. Webs is super easy to use and produces super professional looking websites for people like me who are more or less code illiterate!

Keep up the good work guys and congratulations on your 10th year in business…

Thank you for the history lesson, it is a good story to use in my high school business ed class as well as the engineering courses I teach. You have an excellent business model and I watch it grow with anticipation – whatever you announce next will be fruitful and useful. Great business, great leadership and great communication.

I love the fact that webs.com was “accidentally” launched in 2001 thanks to 14-year-old Idris, who submitted Freewebs) to the dmoz.org registry without his older brothers having a clue!

I was introduced to Webs.com by my 11-year old neices. To me the Webs.com story illustrates perfectly what a Harvard author wrote about technology back in the 1990s – that us over 30s will always be immigrants in cyberspace, while our younger kin are natives and will show us the way if we pay attention to them. The Webs story is a great example of a new millennium family business taking off.

Well done guy’s, keep the good work up & don’t rest or relax from your hard work. Remember the story of “Intel” when they relax just a little, they almost
got “killed” by “Japs” & other’s who almost stole their ideas. They had 2 quickly
step-up they game 2 remain in business. So Remember, they r others out there
who would 2 blow u out of the water. Keep the good work up & God blesss.

This is awesome… celebrating 10 years! Thanks for the history information.
It is great to have an understanding of the beginning. I searched and checked
out other sites and none of them were user friendly for a beginner as myself.
You made it easy and fun and I don’t even utilize all that you offer and I have
fun with what I am using. Much sucess in going forward!

I’m so very excited and impressed with Webs. I’m new to Webs. I chose Webs to market my book: TUSKEGEE AIRMEN – To The Moon, Mars and Beyond.
My website was a challenge for me, since I’m not too Computer savvy. But I was able to do a great job creating my website. I’m now 86 years old.
Thanks Webs! You have a fantastic product.

Though there are little little problems in our registrations, we will be ungrateful and unappreciative people if we fail testify to the benefit of the free web sites; and even for the reduction that is given to those of us who paid certain amount of money for registration of premium. We pray that God will bless the organizers and the sponsors. Thanks!

Freewebs had a very cool chat system at one time. They then removed it. They haven’t been the same since. Webs is ok. i have had 2 premiums packages. There isn’t a difference except, more storage space. I don’t get a quarter of the hits, I once did, but i see i can get hits from all over the world.
Happy 10 years Webs

I love how Webs makes it easy for anyone to make a site, for free! It’s so easy to use, because all you have to do is Sign-Up, name your site, pick a design and there you go! All the hosting and basic-domain is all done for you, and the fact that it’s online, nicely designed, and the instant-publishing makes it unbeatable!
