The creation of a website is always an important moment that we think about in advance. Fortunately, thanks to the development of content creation and management platforms, it is no longer necessary to go through a web designer or to have advanced knowledge in programming language to design a website.
The steps are considerably simplified. However, the experience can quickly become complicated if you do not use a quality web editor. So we have put together a top 3 list of the best website builders so that you can find the one that meets your needs and fits your budget.
1. Wix
Wix has become the reference in website creation. Since its inception in 2006, Wix has gathered more than 150 million users worldwide. This success is explained by its powerful solution and its very interesting prices
Wix offers a website management service with an integrated web builder. The hosting is included in the solution, it is not up to you to find one. The reservation of a domain name can also be done directly from Wix.
As we have seen in our Wix review, it is possible to create a multitude of sites including blogs, storefronts or online stores starting from a template. With more than 500 different templates, Wix offers the largest catalog, especially since they are all free. Wix differentiates itself with responsive templates designed by design experts. The result is very aesthetic and minimalist.
If Wix is ranked first in this comparison of the best website builders, it’s mainly because its integrated web editing tool leaves room for great creative freedom. Good SEO options are offered as well as analytics tools to track your performance and traffic. There is even the possibility to add an online booking system and a multilingual site. The Wix App Market allows you to install additional applications to customize your site and optimize its management. This is a plus that is not found in all providers.
The other non-design aspects of your site can be found in your dashboard. Despite the many features available, the tool is still easy to use.
2. Zyro
Zyro is a website creation platform launched in 2019. In a short period of time, the brand has managed to develop a high-quality service. Zyro is a very accessible solution – whether it’s in terms of price with plans offered from €2.61 per month or the simplicity of its site editor designed for beginners.
With Zyro, you can create a website, a blog and even an online store without coding knowledge. Web hosting is provided by the highly reputable Hostinger (parent company), so you don’t have to do anything.
Its templates are modern and well designed. Its complete editing tool allows you to obtain a quality site in less than an hour. To customize the template and get a site to your image, nothing could be easier. Its site editor works on the drag and drop principle. It is very easy to find your way around because the interface is intuitive. You will also have access to a design grid to easily align the elements of your page. And this aspect can sometimes be missing in other providers.
If this provider is so high in the ranking it is also because it integrates many free additional tools: logo creator, text generator, tool to resize images and improve their quality or the heatmap.
Zyro also supports its users by offering powerful marketing tools (ad campaign creation, detailed performance reports…) and advanced SEO options to improve the ranking. All of these elements allow you to optimize the construction of your site and make it attractive to your visitors.
Zyro stands out once again by offering an efficient and easily reachable customer support through a live chat. The teams even make the effort to answer in French which is particularly appreciable.
3. Jimdo
This ranking of the best website creation software continues with Jimdo. The company was founded in 2007 in Germany. Today, no less than 25 million sites have been created via Jimdo.
The Jimdo service costs between 9€ and 39€ / month depending on the package chosen, which is still very reasonable. As with its competitor Wix, Jimdo also offers a free version with basic functions. Jimdo is aimed at individuals, small businesses and e-merchants who want to create a website in a simple and guided way.
With its new artificial intelligence tool, the creation of a website can be done in less than five minutes using a series of questions that will help identify your preferences. The site proposals will be adapted to your project and you will only have to select the model that you like the most. It is also possible to directly select a template from the 100 available and customize it later.
In any case, you will see that the integrated web builder software is very intuitive. You can easily add and remove sections with the drag and drop function and the sample layouts. Unlike WordPress and Wix hosting, Jimdo does not offer extensions in its system. Rest assured, there is plenty to do with the available features. You probably won’t need any additional applications.
Jimdo provides an automated SEO option to help you get your site listed on search engines. The Jimdo tool is well thought out and perfectly suited for beginners. In case of problems, users can contact Jimdo support by leaving a message in the chat window or the contact form. The advisors are usually quite responsive.
