A webwallet?
https://coinpunk.com/

(If you really must. A client that you control 100% is preferred.)

I would highly recommend against using a web wallet due to its inherently insecure nature, but if you have to I'd say go with Blockchain's one - just make sure you add 2FA and have a secure password.

You won't have control of your private keys on exchange wallets like coinbase, and so it is not a good idea to store your bitcoin there IMO.
Try blockchain.info, and even better an offline wallet.

Huh
It seems to me you have misunderstood the term "offline wallet".

For offline wallet (cold storage), your private keys should be generated offline and should never be placed in any device that is connecting or will connect to the Internet.

Use a wallet you download. A program that is the wallet. It generates a key (which has a respective bitcoin address) that's being used to spend the Bitcoins you receive in the bitcoin address of the key. That way only you can tell your Bitcoin where to go.
Bitcoin is trying to liberate people from having to rely on a bank, and still they ask where bitcoin banks are.

Check out the info here:

https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

I would start with a full node like "bitcoin core". It takes a lot of memory and space, but offers the highest level of control over your coins. Until you understand bitcoin you may want to avoid any kind of shared wallet. Those online systems are only as good as the website operators. If they are incompetent or criminal minded, your coins could be taken and there is nothing anyone can do to get them back.

Keep it simple.

The best best is the Bitcoin wallet you download yourself but if your looking for a online wallet I recommend Blockchain.info based on my personal experience with the site.  Their a a few good options and I'd suggest taking the time to decide which is best for you.  You'll get a good idea of the best options from the replies in this thread.

Coinbase has always worked well for me and if you have a question about their service they are very quick to respond.

I recently asked them about the risk of not providing the private key's for wallets to the account holder and the risk that poses if they should go bankrupt. The answer was quick, honest, and offered to escalate the question if i found the answer to not be sufficient.

I also like Coinbase's user interface...although the mobile app needs some work and they don't tally the value of all wallets, which would be a nice convenience.

Bank-like Bitcoin services are familiar to all of us, especially those that are just now joining the Bitcoin movement. I think it's important for these services to exist (perhaps mostly for retailers and transaction heavy users).

The risk of keeping your bitcoin address and private keys on paper at home is only slightly less risky than with an online wallet. Paper is more fragile than the internet, although it's certainly more private.

Anyone have some good ideas on how to innovate on online wallets? The market here clearly has a needed for a better option (with Blockchain arguably considered the best right now).

Use a wallet you download. A program that is the wallet. It generates a key (which has a respective bitcoin address) that's being used to spend the Bitcoins you receive in the bitcoin address of the key. That way only you can tell your Bitcoin where to go.

Considering that the oldest piece of paper known dates from AD 256 and the Internet dates back to the 1970s, I doubt your statement.

There's solutions for that "fragility" or "house burns down" scenarios.

M-of-N and BIP38 - worth researching.

I'd second the tips here.

I'd only say use BlockChain.info to test out Bitcoin. At some point (or when you have enough funds you aren't willing to risk) I would switch over to something like a paper wallet.

My suggestion is u can use blockchain because the trans conform in seconds and peer rate is also good and you can backup  your wallet also
