Recommendations to others considering The Free Website Guys:
If you don’t already have a website, can’t afford one, and don’t care much about personal attention or strategy, this might work for you. Just know what you’re signing up for: a one-size-fits-all offer sent to thousands of people without a second thought.
If you’re looking for expertise, nuance, or any sense that someone sees you as more than a checkbox, keep looking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What problems is The Free Website Guys solving and how is that benefiting you?
In theory, they’re solving the problem of affordability for people who need a website but can’t build one themselves. That would be great, if they actually targeted the right audience. In my case, I am a web developer. I build websites for a living. Being pitched a “free website” out of nowhere, by someone who clearly didn’t read my profile, wasted my time and left a bad impression. If their goal is to help, it starts with knowing who you’re talking to. They missed that step entirely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
