> There also are totally free hosting platforms (some ad-sponsored perhaps, but this is tolerable and better than nothing), many come with a WYSIWYG constructor (mostly producing shitty code but still Okay as compared to no WWW presence at all). There also are GitHub Pages which give you great static page hosting + news posting for free if you know basic git (and there already are enough of people around who know git and will make you a GitHub page if you just give them a free pizza or two, me included). I don't understand how you can type this and then still say you don't understand why people just create a free Facebook page instead. And that is not even touching on the network effect that your Facebook page enjoys.
