Demo Link
Some of the Demos are located right on the advertised web host's website. There may be more than one demo for a builder. Other demos are located at the manufacturer's website. If On Site is specified it means that the web host does not supply us with a direct link to their website builder demo page.
Pages
Most of these web hosts will provide packages that include more web pages. If you see a number of pages specified it will be the number of pages you can build without paying extra.
Cost Per Month
We display the cost per month of the low end package for each web host. This is the price for annual prepayment in most cases. If you find a builder you like you should explore all of the packages for that web host.
You should research the different web hosts to pick a package that is right for you!
How We Determine Ratings
Ratings for Website Builders
Our ratings for each website builder are determined by testing the software on a dial up connection. If it performs well on dial up it should fly on a high speed connection.
Template ratings are our opinion. Some of the tools perform well, but their templates just don't look professional.
Ratings for Web Hosts
Ratings for ticket response come from the realmetrics website figured on the last 180 days. If they aren't available, you'll see NA which means the web host doesn't subscribe to realmetrics.
Support listings displayed in red mean that the web host has an excessive number of customer complaints on record.
What We don't Rate
We don't rate web hosting resources.
The numbers you see for storage and bandwidth, displayed by many hosts, mean nothing.
Many web hosts are posting numbers like 1500GB storage and 15,000GB bandwidth. That's 1.5 terabytes for storage and 15 terabytes for bandwidth. Some hosts have stopped playing the game and gone to UNLIMITED storage and bandwidth.
UNLIMITED and Terabyte limits are a marketing PLOY.
UNLIMITED and Terabytes of bandwidth simply mean that your web host will monitor your usage and as long as you don't break the rules and exceed the limits which they usually don't specify, you're okay. When you exceed their limits, they'll ask you to purchase dedicated hosting or move your website.
In most cases you won't reach your limits unless you are using some kind of spamming software or if your website receives 100000 visitors a day and your web pages are running streaming video or podcasting for hours on end.
For websites under 1000 web pages, not displayed in streaming video, numbers like 2GB storage and 50GB bandwidth would be more than sufficient.
