What is a Website Builder?
A website builder is an all-in-one platform that allows you to build, design and launch a website without writing code. Designed, built and supported in New Zealand, our website builder gives businesses from around the world all the tools and features they need to build exceptional websites.
Modern website builders such as ours, include:
- a drag and drop website editor
- search engine optimisation tools
- professionally designed templates
- mobile responsive layouts
- website hosting, SSL security and domain names
A website builder works through your internet browser; there is no need to download any software. You simply choose a website template which looks and feels something like the end result you are after. Then using the drag and drop editor, select the colours, fonts and features you want, add your content and go live.
The benefits of choosing a website builder to create your new website, are that it is quick to set up, doesn't need any coding knowledge or graphic design skills, offers plenty of easy to use customisation features, and requires no system maintenance or updates by you. Our website builder is widely used by small businesses, startups, eCommerce stores and service based businesses across NZ and internationally.
How a Website Builder Works
Website builders make building a website easy and straight forward. Follow these steps to learn the process of how a website builder works and create your new website:
Step 1
Choose a web design template. All of our templates have been professionally designed, and you can change your template once you login to the CMS. Our templates give you a strong foundation for your new website, while remaining fully customisable.
Step 2
Select the kind of website you want to build, such as an online shop, trade ordering site, appointment or services booking site, accommodation provider or any of the options that are available.
Step 3
Enter your contact details. No credit card details are required, nor do you need to sign any contracts. It's as simple as that.
Step 4
Customise your website design. Use our visual drag-and-drop editor to change layouts, colours, fonts and images. No coding or design experience is required!
Step 5
Add pages and content. Create the essential pages you will need, such as Home, Services, About, Contact and Shopping. Add the necessary text, images, videos and calls to action.
