if you want web wallet then i can recommend you can go for coinbase.com and xapo, this two web wallet i have been using for more than last 19 months and not facing any problem with them, with xapo most of the faucets give you rewards and you can get payout immediately in some faucets if you use xapo. coinbase is good for depositing to other sports sites which is secure and fast.
The listed wallet are all good I would not like repeat much if the listed wallet but for me meta mask wallet is still good shall depends on choice.
Thanks for all your suggestions. I looked at the list...is there any advantage/disadvantage to using Circle? I will need to change the funds into fiat money at some point and it says they can do this?
Hello everyone, I am new to this and having been spending most of the weekend trying to understand how everything works. I think I am getting there but just wandered whether anyone could suggest the best option I could use for a wallet. Only proviso is that I don’t want it to show on my computer and so not a desktop wallet or one for my mobile phone. So I guess I am asking what the best web based wallet is? Any suggestions?
Blockchain.info or coinbase.com.
Use Electrum, its newbie friendly and the UI is pretty good.
When you said the best web wallet then by default I think it's blockchain.info, it went offline for a small duration before but less than even a day each time.
You can try electrum easy and fast.. But you need to save your priveate key and seeds.
because if you forgot your password you can recover your account using those private key and seeds.
And then electrum has fee for tx transaction..
You can also use online wallet like blockchain aswell.

The online wallet is only for small amount of coins. It is better to store large amount in your own wallet.

blockchaininfo is a good wallet, and you can print a paper wallet directly from blockchain web application and use it to store the most of your money, is almost as secure as a proper paper wallet 
Blockchain.info has a bad track record. Ignoring that for now, Blockchain.info being an online service does store your encrypted wallet backups online which exposes your risk to hackers. A proper paper wallet is generated offline using methods which are much secure and allows users to check for possible vulnerabilities. Bitaddress.org offers both features and have a nice looking paper wallet layout which Blockchain.info does not have.
On blockchain.info, you can create a paper wallet and import it as a watch-only address. It is as secure as generating a paper-wallet online can be, your private keys are stored only on paper
Well if you really want a web based wallet , I would suggest blockchain.info. Just make sure you will the back up and the private keys for more security of your coins, storing it on the site is not that safe if you don't have any back up.
Electrum is fast and free as well as secured too. with the QR code intergrated that's easy to use it along side with your phone

Use a web wallet if you just have 0.x bitcoins and want learn about bitcoin. Download a core application wallet when you are more established.

For me the bestt web based wallet is blockchain, because it's simple and easy to use. and i'm use xapo too but it's to many verification that not make us anonymous like blockchain.

You could also Use the Service of the HaOBtc Company which also gives u a good interest on the Amount you spent there. I also use the Service over there and its quit nice
Whats in your Mind now OP? Would be great to know what youve done now or so far

That comes with risk though your trusting someone else with your coins. So massive difference then if someone has cold storage.
I'm not sure how I feel to be honest on most wallets that offer interest. The company your talking about is huge in mining so I cant say it about them, as I have not researched it.
But sadly a lot of the ones that offer interest are are ponzi schemes. I would avoid them as a general rule. Granted there are a few I'm sure are ok.. but a lot more that are not.

I would use bitcoin core, its always up to date, secure, clean, private...
In past i would recommend multibit but its no go now.

i believe that the best wallets for new people in the bitcoin world are the online ones that dont require too much knowledge about bitcoins and its easy to use them also i think that blockchain.info is the best one as it even has a demo wallet that you can try before dealing with real bitcoins
Well if you are loocking for a pure web wallet, mmm i think blockchain.info is good, no more no less than the rest of the web based wallets 
Btw, if you let me, i want to suggest you to use other wallets instead of we based ones, go for bitcoin-qt or electrum or armory, you will need it and is not a bad thing to start to use them since the beginning
