PLEASE NOTE...THIS WEBSITE STOPPED BEING REGULARLY MAINTAINED IN 2018

GOOGLE SITES

Google Sites has revamped their old and difficult website editing interface to be something cleaner and much easier to use. While it does not have all the aesthetics and options of Weebly, it is the best price...free (well, not counting big data)
You SHOULD be able to access your own Google Sites editor HERE (keep in mind, you have to have a Google account).

DRAWBACKS
- Not as flashy as Weebly or Wix

BENEFITS
- VERY user friendly (similar to Weebly in that you drag and drop in elements)
- It's free
- It remains with the account holder as long as they have their Google account (unlike Weebly)
