By Jared Lingat

The Webs site builder provides everything you need to get your business online. It is a wide variety of customizable templates, and engaging features like blogs, photos, videos, forums and more. You can create and edit your own website for free through webs.com

As a result, Webs has become the world's largest do-it-yourself website-creation solution. 50 million sites have been built with Webs and, together, these sites receive 300 million page views each month. Clearly, our customers trust us to help them create, manage and host their websites.

How can webs help students?

• Webs.com can help students in promoting their blogs, projects in schools or to start a small business with the use of website. Hosting your own website is very expensive and not everyone can afford to host a site, so that's why webs is built. Students can host their own website for free and they can use all of its functions. It's much the same as hosting your own website and hosting a free website on webs. Students can benefit a lot from this site because people can do many things when hosting a website. Who knows? Maybe their future would begin at something small such as hosting a free website on webs.

Group Review :

We rate this application 7 out of 10 since this is only for communication purposes only but it would still be a big help for students especially when doing their group works, this could enhance their teamwork as one group. Other than that, you can use this application when you want to communicate with your love ones whenever you want to as long as you have a internet connection. The good thing about eBuddy is that it is easy and is ready to use at the moment that you entered its website.
