What is a Website Builder?

A website builder is a software that's designed to help people create websites using predefined components. Most website builders offer a great deal of handholding, so the process is fast and easy. There's no coding involved - pre-built templates lead the way.

To anyone familiar with WordPress, Joomla, or another popular content management system (CMS), the description of a website builder may seem very similar to that of their CMS.

The distinction between a CMS and a website builder has actually become quite vague. For example, the integration between the content management features of WordPress and its page-building functionality is so strong that it's hard to tell where one ends and the other begins.

Nevertheless, a dedicated website builder can offer huge advantages for site owners, whether they’re using a CMS or not. While a CMS may limit your flexibility when it comes to design, content type, and site functionality, a full-featured site builder removes all such limitations and helps you easily create your website.

What can a website builder do for you?

Compared to building a site from scratch, using a website builder offers a lot of advantages. A website builder should provide an easy to use interface that hides many of the technical details of site creation.

Instead of wrestling with raw HTML and trying to manually integrate complex stylesheet elements, a professional website builder will come with intuitive design capabilities and present you with helpful forms and dialogs to define all the needed site elements.

For many new site owners, getting their site published fast is a top priority—even if it's not perfect yet. The goal is to establish an online presence as quickly as possible. Even as a novice website owner with no technical skills, by dealing with predefined page elements in a user-friendly and intuitive interface, you’ll be able to have your site up and running in no time!

Website builders aren't just for inexperienced site owners, though. Design and tech-savvy users can also benefit from the ease-of-use and flexibility that website builders provide.

Factors in choosing a website builder

When comparing website builders, there is basic functionality that any worthwhile site builder must have, including the following:

  • Easy-to-use design tools that let you choose colors, fonts, and predefined but customizable layouts that will present your content the way you want to.
  • Professionally created templates that let you customize elements to ensure a unique look for your website.
  • Responsive design by default, so your website will be mobile-friendly from day one.
  • Advanced editing capabilities that give you total control over your site, providing advanced users the ability to modify images and add custom code to their site.
  • Snap-in sections, tools, and forms so you can include linked icons to your social media or add a “contact us” page to your site, for example.
  • A review feature that will let you see exactly what your site will look like, then easily go live with a single click.

Website Builder FAQs

Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Website Builder is an easy-to-use website builder design tool that allows you to create and manage your website without previous technical or design experience. Choose a professionally designed template, modify your colours and layout, import your images and photos, place your website copy where you want it, and then publish it live to the web on your domain name.

HostPapa Website Builder’s simple design means anyone can create a great website with a wide range of styles and templates - no technical programming or design experience is necessary.

When it comes to choosing the right website builder for you, there are a few important things to consider.

  • What's your tech level?

    It’s smart to factor in your familiarity with web technology, but there's an even more important question you should be asking yourself: How technically complicated does your site need to be?

    Even tech-savvy users will seek to minimize the technical complexity of their site. By defining the baseline website functionality needed to publish a blog, promote a business, or sell products online, site owners can right-size their efforts.

    When taking that approach, a full-featured website builder is often found to be more than capable of providing all the needed features, functionality, and flexibility. That allows users at any skill level to dodge unnecessary complex solutions in favor of a helpful website builder that offers them exactly what they need.

  • What type of content will you publish?

    While most website builders will give you templates that were professionally designed, even presenting options that were created specifically for blogs and other site-types, they don't all offer the flexibility to add advanced functionalities like a shopping cart.

    If eCommerce is your goal, be sure to choose a website builder that offers online store templates with built-in shopping carts, billing forms, and easy integration with transaction processing applications. You’ll find all these features readily available in the HostPapa Website Builder Enterprise plan.

    Once you take these things into consideration, you can review our Website Builder plans to find the plan that best suits your needs.
