There are plenty of websites out there that claim to provide a 100% free service. But in reality, there is almost always a catch. For example, they may tease you with access to some of their basic tools just to entice you to sign up. After building so-called “trust”, you will eventually want (and need) access to their advanced features. That’s when they force you to pay a fee (monthly or annually) for continued use of their service.
Additionally, they almost always use the alleged “free” profile against you. Sometimes this involves marketing attempts to get you to buy another product or service they offer. And most times, with the help of unclear and covert wording in their terms of use agreements, these websites will ultimately sell your information to third parties, who will use it to learn more about you and your interests. And before you know it, you’re part of various marketing lists that begin targeting you for certain products and selling strategies.
