Free Website Builders

Home >> Building Your Website >> Free Website Builders

Web hosts provide you with the space to create your web pages, but many of them don't give you any free website builders or guidance when it comes to writing the HTML, web design, creating graphics, etc.   

Below are some good web hosts that offer free website building tools when you buy their hosting package.

WebSite Tonight Hosting

This plan allows you to create and design a website using a beginner-friendly browser-based web tool. 

All you do is point, click, and type to create your site.  There's a built-in web publishing tool that will allow you to build pages quickly and easily without knowing a single thing about web programming.

Many people find Website Tonight perfect for creating almost any kind of personal or business web site. However, they are especially popular for photo oriented sites because there are some great templates available for photo galleries.  You can also add a message forum and video to your site.

I highly recommend this hosting package! And what's most impressive about WebSite Tonight is that they keep adding new features, yet the price stays the same.

How to Receive This Site Builder

As you may know from reading this site, in order to create a web site you need to do two things. First, register a dot com (domain) name. 

Then choose WebSite Tonight hosting as your host.

Powweb Hosting

Powweb offers a free web builder with their hosting plan and they provide a ton of space for your pages and graphics. 

Their free web page software comes complete with pre-designed templates for many types of sites. It's quick and convenient, but best for smaller sites.

You'll receive supreme, quality customer support which includes access to a toll free 800 number, message board support, and fast email responses. They're setup process is lightning fast as well.

After you register your domain name, sign up for Powweb's web hosting plan, and you'll get this add-on to your hosting account for free.  Here's my review of Powweb here.

Site Build It! (SBI!)

This web host is best if you want to make money from a website.  I used it to create my fitness site, flat-stomach-exercises.com.  The site makes money while I sleep and I barely update it.

SBI! is an all-in-one suite of tools that helps you brainstorm for a "profitable" (highly searched) topic and then instructs you how to create an information site that generates money.

For example, you can build a website on your hobby and SBI! will teach you how to get traffic from Google, MSN and Yahoo.  You can make money by simply placing ads on your pages.

In addition to help with making money, Site Build It! provides a built-in Block-by-Block SiteBuilder which enables you to create your pages very easily.  You simply type into a form and hit "Build It!" to create your pages.

As far as choosing a design, there are several templates you can choose from and you can even customize your header, logo and left navigation with a few mouse clicks.  It literally took me minutes to setup my initial design.

The builder is browser based so there is no additional software to buy or install.  You simply go to an address in your browser to manage and update your site.  You have access to your site 24 hours per day, 7 days a week as you do with the other hosts mentioned here.

When you buy Site Build It!, all the building tools you need to create your website are included in the price.
