Everything was very well structured on timing. I was very happy with how they made sure I was completely comfortable with what they had done before moving onto the next step. AT one point I was stumped on how to change something on my website and with one email to Sven, they sent me back a video from one of the designers of my website that showed me how to navigate the problem I was having. It was absolutely great having that kind of customer service

Their professional demenour, the videos they send to explain how to use the applications to edit your website are absolutely a major plus.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Free Website Guys could have done differently?
The website is not 100% free. Granted it is a small fee to get it up and going but perhaps they should advertise a free website with a small fee attached to it

I thoroughly enjoyed working with The Free Website Guys on the creation of a clean, attractive, and fast loading website for a special project of mine. Yes, the process requires your cooperation and some basic inexpensive tools such as webhosting, but the offer really is FREE! The team was completely professional, responsive, and timely with moving the project efficiently through its various stages until completion.
As the team will tell you themselves, the offer to create a website is free because they are taking a wager that if they do a good job and provide value for you today, that you will come back to them in the future for additional paid work. I can say that would be 100% the case for me. I look forward to being able to contract them for some compensated work in the future. Thanks Sven and the team at thefreewebsiteguys!
