@scottalanmiller premium service for merging trees anymore search functionality.
Looks like premium subscription for more than adding yourself?

Geni is solving the problem of genealogy by inviting the world to build the definitive online family tree. Using the basic free service at Geni.com, users add and invite their close relatives to join their family tree. All Geni users can share photos, videos, and documents with their families. Geni’s Pro subscription service allows users to find matching trees and merge those into the single world family tree, which currently contains over 70 million living users and their ancestors. Additional pay services include enhanced research tools and premium support. Geni welcomes casual genealogists and experts who wish to discover new relatives and stay in touch with family. Geni is privately held and based in Los Angeles, California.In November 2012, Geni was acquired by MyHeritage Ltd. and is now a MyHeritage company.

I like the "one tree" idea. But I don't want anything that I have to keep paying for just to have it store a tree. It's a very basic database, even if it holds all of human history. No need for a lot of money to be exchanged for that.

Without actually making an account, it looks like that you can only add your immediate family. Then beyond that you invite relative and they add theirs and thus it confirms and adds to your tree.
So without the subscription, it seems useless.

Especially since you only need one recursive query on one table. This is a basic org database query using a CTE.

Just saw some WP plugins https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/genealogy

Unsure about web based - but I know that the Gramps-Project is supposed to be pretty decent.
It is suppose to be able to open files from Family Tree Maker also...

Except you need some weird loopbacks and stuff. For those of us from severely inbred families it gets pretty complicated.
