I go through my family research paperwork and make a list of what I need to look for, then I buy a monthly subscription on Ancestry and give it a blitz for that month. I have found some fascinating information on individual free sites. One time I Googled my Great-Great Uncle's Bomber Command Squadron. I found a website set up by an ex-RAF serviceman and he had the hand written, eye witness account from a Lancaster bomber pilot who watched as my G-G Uncle's plane crashed shortly after take off. Thankfully, he survived but it showed me that the big sites have lots of information but these small sites can put some meat on the bones.
