How we create our scores

Our web builder rankings are based on independent testing and user feedback. Your business website is vitally important, and so we’ve made sure that our results reflect your needs.

First, we give it a go ourselves, as well as asking users of varying levels of experience to try them out to. What works for an expert might not be right for a beginner, so our tests are designed to reflect any level of knowledge.

We also look at the number of features on offer and how good they are. This includes things such as templates, SEO functionality, and sales tools. The help a website builder provides is also evaluated, including its live chat, support guides, and email service.

Last but not least, we assess a web builder’s value for money by comparing the price of its plans against the range and quality of the features it provides. The best web builder features are never free, but they also shouldn’t break the bank. Take a look at our recommendations and you can’t go wrong.
