Ancestry is the best site overall, you can build your family tree, attaching records to individuals for source documentation. It is an easy site to navigate and anytime I have had problems their "help" staff has always top notch in getting my problem resolved quickly.
I only have two negative things to say:
1) I wish there were more actual records, marriage and death records especially rather than just indexes.
2) There should be a bigger warning about that "shaking green leaf" for new users, while it is helpful - it is not "proof" but merely a suggestion to be checked out. I have run across user submitted trees that are clearly erroneous with the same individual with 4 or 5 census records for the same year attached to that one person.
In summary, I would recommend Ancestry.com to a friend.
