Choose a builder when speed matters
A website builder is ideal when you need to get online quickly, test an idea, create a simple service website or start with a clean template.
Choose custom when the site needs more planning
A custom website makes more sense when you need complex pages, bespoke layout, ecommerce planning, integrations, unusual content or more strategy.
Use Assisted Setup as the middle path
If you can build the basics but want help polishing the site, Assisted Setup sits between DIY and full custom build.
Avoid paying for the wrong level too early
The best route depends on budget, urgency, content readiness, technical needs and how much support you want.
