How to Redeem Credits From FreeWeb
Freewebs is a website hosting service that was founded by Haroon and Zeki Mokhtarzada in 2001. The company changed its name to Webs in 2008 as part of a rebranding initiative. While some older members still refer to the company as "Freewebs," typing "freewebs.com" into a browser redirects the user to the webs.com site. While the company has made many changes, they still offer free, advertisement-sponsored websites. When users of the free websites take advantage of special offers or use the Webs toolbar, they receive credits that allow them to purchase premium services, such as password protection, extra web storage and free email blasts.
