Business without a website is unimaginable nowadays.

And this website, before, used to be a hassle. Also expensive and time-consuming.

However, technology and opportunities have reached such an extent that building a website has become much easier with some online platforms.

1. WordPress

Finding someone who hasn’t heard about WordPress to build a website is hard. Presently, it powers over almost 43% of all websites on the internet.

From a simple blog website to an e-commerce store or more complex websites, WordPress lets you create your ideal type of website.

However, if you’re aiming for simplicity, go with WordPress.com, but if your management requires more technical customization, go with WordPress.org.

Price

You’ll need typically $10-$50 per month when starting to get access to all the premium packages. Additionally, you’ll need some hosting costs.

Pros

There are thousands of themes and plugins you can customize to design your website.

Cons
