ما هو منشئ المواقع الإلكترونية؟

A website builder is an online platform that allows you to create, design, and launch a website without writing any code. Instead of having to learn programming languages like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, you use a visual editor where you can click, drag, and drop the parts you want into place. These parts include text boxes, images, headings, videos, forms, buttons and colours. 

Traditionally, creating a website involved manually writing code or hiring a web developer, purchasing separate web hosting, uploading your files to a server, and maintaining and updating the code as required. 

Website builders simplify this entire process by combining design, domain hosting, web hosting, and content management into one package. This means that no coding knowledge is needed, you can manage everything from one dashboard when you are logged in and changes are easily made by you at any time!

How Do Website Builders Work?

Website builders work by giving you the tools you need to design your website. You simply use the drag and drop editor (or Content Box/TinyMCE) to design your pages, and our powerful website builder turns your actions into the code needed to run your website. Here's how this simple three step process works:

• Choose a Template

• Design Your Website

• Make Your Website Live

What Makes a Great Website Builder?

Your website goals and needs will ultimately determine your choice of website builder. Be sure to take advantage of free trials to test it out yourself before committing. It is our belief that a good website builder should have the following key features:

• customisable, mobile responsive professionally designed website templates 
• an easy to use drag and drop editor, along with the options of other editors also available for use
• eCommerce capabilities, including a variety of payment gateways, rural delivery address detection, and ability to sell physical and/or digital products and display them in different ways
• SEO and marketing tools, such as the ability to optimise your meta tags, create a blog within your website, manage a customer database by organising customers and leads for email marketing purposes
• secure website hosting and secure domain hosting capabilities, with SSL certificates for websites
• ability to scale up with your business, with the website building offering more advanced features and higher tier plans
• customer service and support available via phone and email, along with online help guides

How to Choose the Best Website Builder

When choosing the best website builder for your business, you should firstly identify the things you need your website to do for you. This may include:

• the type of website required - do you need an online store from which you can sell your products directly to customers? Or do you want to showcase work in a portfolio type website? Do you need a blog? Will this be a service based website only?
• who the target audience is - in what ways will your target audience engage with your website? What things does your website need to make this a positive experience for them?
• your website budget - while using a website builder is free, there are costs for the domain name (your website's internet address) and website hosting (making your website live on the internet).
• any special features required - within the website builder, will you be needing to use a bulk emailer, booking system or email services? Will you need the ability to offer trade pricing, use multiple payment gateways or sell digital products too? Take the time to use a website builder free trial to see these features in action. 
• level of support required - are you wanting local support and help to build your website? Or will online guides suffice? Not all website builders provide the high level of customer support as Website World does!

In short, a website builder works by turning your clicks and drags into functional code, gives you the tools needed to manage and grow your website, as well as providing domain and web hosting. A website builder is a great choice to use when you need a functional and professional website for your business. For support in using our popular website builder, check out our Q&As for newbies.
