What is SITE123 and Is It a Good Website Builder?

SITE123 truly delivers on its promise of making website creation as simple as 1-2-3. It may not offer the advanced features of more complex builders, but it does provide everything you need to create a functional, professional-looking site. With mobile-responsive templates and a user-friendly interface, it’s an excellent choice for small-to-medium eCommerce shops or personal projects.

Templates ✔️

SITE123 offers over 80 templates, covering categories like Business, Blog, Event, Restaurant, and Online Store. Browsing through the templates is straightforward—you can view how each one looks on both desktop and mobile devices. A major advantage here is that all templates are mobile-responsive, so your site will look great on any device without additional effort.

However, to access the best customization options, a paid subscription is necessary. While SITE123’s free plan allows for basic edits, features like a full font library and custom color schemes are reserved for paid users. Another point to consider is that many of the templates share a similar design, with large hero images, centered headlines, and parallax scrolling. If you’re not a fan of this style, SITE123 might not be the best fit.

eCommerce Features ✔️

For those looking to set up an online store, SITE123 offers a solid set of eCommerce tools, especially in its Professional and Gold plans. These plans allow you to accept payments through major processors like Stripe, PayPal, and Square, and display and process an unlimited number of products and orders. You can also send marketing emails, collect customer reviews, and offer wish lists, all without paying sales commissions—though standard transaction fees from payment processors still apply.

Even free users get SSL/HTTPS encryption for secure transactions, but if you want to accept online payments and use a custom domain, you’ll need to upgrade from the free plan. The free plan is more suited to those who don’t need full online store functionality.

Apps and Plugins ✔️

With the Professional and Gold plans, you gain access to SITE123’s App Market, which includes plugins for SEO, live chat, and more. Some of the available integrations include Google Analytics for tracking your site’s performance, Hotjar for optimizing user experience, and Zendesk or Facebook Chat for customer support. Additionally, there are tools for form building, pricing tables, and online bookings, though some of these may require extra fees even on the highest subscription plans.

Alrighty, folks, that’s a wrap!

SITE123 is a straightforward website builder with an intuitive design and loads of tips and tutorials to guide you along the way. Even if you’re just starting out, you’ll find it easy to use. It comes with strong eCommerce tools and excellent support for multilingual sites. While SITE123 offers enough for building a personal or business site, it might not be your top pick for more complex projects.
