Thanks,
They're both correct. 2 would be more common I think. But it depends on the stress (on 'always' in 1. and 'will' in 2)
If you add another 'free', I'd use 1. "It is free, and it will always be free". They could both sound incomplete with another "it".

To be grammatically correct they would need to end with full stops.
