I used em, very very very basic. Don't expect any advanced features of customization though unless you got paypal.

I have used it quite a few times but got bored.  You can make a free site yes but if you want it to be 100% yours, you must buy it. also use tokens you can earn to get stuff for your site. it makes it way better.

You can, but to a limited extent. Also as Buddy noted you don't own the website and as I recall they put ads on it along with the fact that you will only have a sub-domain, meaning like for example AirRaiser.webs.com or www.webs.AirRaiser.com or something like that.

Webs.com sucks bro, I've tried it. I think the only good enough option is to buy a domain name and if you can find a downloadable web server for free. I was working on a web design job recently and am working on a new one but I can't find a good enough free option......

Free hosting is always poor, I offer very few free accounts because they don't help cover the bills but for some projects I will do so.

I think Google sites is even worse..... The site that webs gives is something like "righteoussitename.webs.com" where as Google sites is like "google.com/sites/ekd56533kjdgkj/righteoussitename.htm or something like that.
