Two drag-and-drop builders, both with a free tier you can try before deciding anything. Start with a single page and grow into a shop, or move in with the one you already know.
A builder is something you either get on with or you do not. Ten minutes in each will tell you more than any comparison we could write.
Our own drag-and-drop builder. Start on one page and grow into a shop without moving to something else.

Prices come from our billing system. On Site Builder the tiers go by pages first and then by how many products you can sell; on Weebly by what the plan lets you do.
We sell both, so there is nothing to steer you towards.
Then use Weebly. Knowing where everything is beats any feature comparison, and moving builders means rebuilding the site.
Count your products first. Site Builder tiers are 10, 50 and 500 - the price follows that number, so knowing it saves you buying more than you need.
A single landing page is the cheapest thing on this list. Do not buy an unlimited plan for a site that will never have a second page.
If you want something you fully control, or you expect to hand the site to a developer later, WordPress on one of our hosting plans is the better road. A builder is easier to start and harder to leave.
Not sure a builder is the right answer at all? Ask - sometimes it is not, and we will say so.
Yes, both have a free tier and both are worth ten minutes before you decide. A builder is a thing you either get on with or you do not, and no feature list will tell you which.
If you have used Weebly before, use Weebly. If not, Site Builder starts cheaper and its ladder is simpler - pages first, then how many products you can sell. Neither is locked to us in a way that traps you.
No. A builder plan includes the hosting for the site it builds. You will want a domain, and if you already host something else with us that stays where it is.
Yes, on any paid tier. The free tiers publish to a subdomain, which is normally fine while you are still deciding whether you like it.
Yes. On Site Builder that starts at the Store tier and the limit is the number of products - 10, then 50, then 500. On Weebly it is the Pro and Business plans.
Move up a tier, which is the usual answer. If you outgrow the whole idea of a builder, WordPress on one of our hosting plans is where most people go next and we will help you move.
Yes. Both builders produce responsive sites without you doing anything about it, which is most of the reason to use one.
Yes, issued and renewed automatically, same as on our hosting.
Both free tiers are real, and ten minutes in each will tell you which one you actually want to use.
