Our General Take On
Building a Website
Don’t
get confused by all of the different options for creating a website. For a more
in-depth look at how we think about this, check out our preliminary guide
on how to create a website.
WordPress is King
In most
cases, we highly recommend to build your website with WordPress.
It’s an open source platform that allows you to run your website with very
little technical expertise.
Some of
the biggest websites on the Internet are built on WordPress. TechCrunch, The
New Yorker, Variety and MTV
News, just to name a few.
It’s
also the most popular blogging platform, so there are hundreds of thousands of
smaller websites that use WordPress.
WordPress
is used by 33.4% of all the websites, and has a content management system market share of 60.3%.
Much of
our content is centered around WordPress because we use it for all of our
websites outside of Ecommerce.
Here’s
the guide on how to create your website
on WordPress.
Wix for Ecommerce
For
Ecommerce, we like Wix — which is an Ecommerce website builder that allows
you to get an online store up and running quickly.
The
reality is that creating and running an online store can be a huge pain. Wix
takes that pain away. That’s probably why they are growing so quickly.

the guide on how to create your website
on Wix.
The Dozens of Other Options
If
you’re reading this right now, then you most definitely fall into the category
of someone that should be using WordPress or Wix.
In rare
cases, it might make sense to create a website using Squarespace or a similar website builder.
In
other (very) rare cases, it might make sense to have a
custom-built website.
