I've never understood the hierarchy on wikitree and gave up trying to offer corrections to a manager who openly admitted to making a real mess when combining dozens of online trees onto the site.
I'm constantly frustrated by the efforts of others to once again replicate the dozens of duplicate profiles I've merged multiple times on familysearch.
 
Tribalpages is a happy medium for simple tree hosting. It's in a quiet corner of the internet few seem to visit which in an ironic way is the best and worst part of the site. It's easy to use but the support is pretty poor if there are problems in my experience and the photo/word limit on the free version is a bit restrictive.

Tribal pages allows 50 photos on a free site, also 500 words per person. There are other ways of adding information to the site. I found that I soon wanted more room for photos and written information, I found it not expensive to upgrade.
