Which website builder is right for a small business?
Comparisons of Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, GoDaddy, the AI builders and Theo, with the vendors' listed prices and what each leaves to you.

The guides below compare the builders on that question, with the prices each vendor lists as of September 2026 and what happens to the domain and the store when you move.
