Free family website

If you want to create a family tree or chart your genealogy – or if you just want to keep a website where all family members can connect and post photographs, there are free website options set up specifically for you!

A family website can be a small project within your own immediate family– to record all the events, photos and happenings. Or it can encompass your extended family, and reach back through the ages, detailing the lives of generations of your family. A family website can be a fascinating insight into where you came from, and wonderful for your children to see and interact with.  Make it a special family project.

These are some free family websites that offer different features. If you intend on building up a site that will be around for a long time to come, be sure to choose a solid company.

At the myfamily.com site, you can show your important events right on the homepage.  You can choose to leave voice messages, make photo stories and family trees. Family members can log in and add their own photos, videos and update the family tree. You can have unlimited members and unlimited storage, even on the free plan. Paid plans include being able to upload additional MBs per month.

myfamily says: “Since 1998, myfamily.com has helped millions of people keep in touch with their family and friends by sharing photos, stories, news, family trees and more on their very own private web site. If you don’t already have a family web site, sign up today for FREE, and see for yourself why myfamily.com has been providing private family web sites longer than anyone else.”

 With Shutterfly Share, a family can keep track of the daily schedule and upcoming events. All members of your family site will be auto-notified of comments and updates made by other family members. Nexo.com was acquired by shutterfly.com and is in the process of changing over during 2009.  For the moment you can sign up at either nexo.com or shutterfly share.  Being part of Shutterfly, family members can order prints and photo books directly from the website.

Shutterfly.com says:  “Communicate and collaborate with the people who enrich your life- whether it’s softball teammates, your child’s second grade classroom, your neighbors, or an entire wedding party.”
