### "Easy way to get up your website without any headache. "

March 10, 2022

5.0

We have had a positive experience with it.

Pros

This is incredibly easy software to use for getting a website up. It's inexpensive compared to hiring somebody to make one. Also there is some SEO baked in so it can show up on your web searches. We have been using this software for many years and like it so far.

Cons

I wish that there was a lot more features available. The websites look fairly basic. A little more customizability would be a nice update.

### "Brand conscious 2022"

April 14, 2022

5.0

The overall experience with GoDaddy Website Builder was outstanding, I learn new skills, I was able to showcase my creative side through building the website. I was able to take on full ownership of all decision making of the website to truly make it the way I envision it to be. The outcome was exceptional.

Pros

The most beneficial feature of this software is being able to build your own website and make it your own. A website which represents your company as a whole, has standards, boundaries and a vision.

Cons

The least aspect of this software is not knowing how to use it to it's full potential. I highly recommend taking a tutorial class and getting help on how to use it on a broad spectrum. To get the full experience for your company and your brand.

### "can be used for build website"

September 20, 2021

5.0

Overall, my experience has been fantastic. It's as if someone is giving you guidance behind your back! I was really pleased with the end outcome of my website! My website is receiving a lot more traffic and sales than it used to on other apps. I am really pleased.

Pros

The GoDaddy website builder is highly practical and simple to use. It features a variety of designs and templates to pick from that will be ideal for your business. The 30-day free trial was really helpful in getting to know the programme and putting it through its paces to ensure it fulfilled our expectations. I really appreciate how it integrates with Square and has built-in shipping choices for when you ship items to consumers.

Cons

Once you've chosen a template, you won't be able to modify any of its page designs. You must simply go through the template. When it comes to functionality and personalization, it is more restricted. After developing my entire website, I discovered that I required a completely different platform than GoDaddy provided for mobile and tablet apps. I'd have to start from scratch to adapt everything to the other platform that supported mobile and tablet settings. Because I am a monthly subscriber to GoDaddy and use numerous of their products, it would be helpful for them to make the conversion for you, but it would cost them more money to do so.

### "GoDaddy Website Builder-OK for basic website"

November 28, 2018

3.0

Disclaimer, I used GoDaddy Website Builder up until about a year ago. So this review may be a little dated if the program has improved any since I switched. I am still a GoDaddy customer, but I have migrated over to their hosting platform with WordPress. Since this move, I could not be more pleased with my website and its performance. I know the GoDaddy servers crash a couple of times a year, but they have great customer service. GoDaddy's Website Builder is great for beginners and for those who are "scared" of technology or learning how to navigate through WordPress and all of its Plugins. However, it also comes with some major limitations. The SEO functionality did not do a thing to my website or to rank it up on a Google search. You have minimal control over the speed and responsiveness of the website. And because there are limited or only GoDaddy plugins, you get what you get and there isn't much more to it. I would say that if you are on a limited budget and have no time to learn (or don't want to learn) how to use WordPress, GoDaddy's Website Builder will make you a functioning website that will serve as a great "place holder" for people that will directly search for your company. If you want to get results on Google, then I'd recommend moving over to the WordPress Platform.

Pros

Inexpensive, fairly easy to navigate, creates a decent website

Cons

Lack of functionality, minimal SEO, not much to build upon

### "Great for a beginner site, SEO is extremely limited for organic leads"

November 3, 2022

4.0

It was great for the first year, but limited me with competitive brands because of the SEO limitations.

Pros

This is as simple as it gets for design. Drag, drop and pre built templates. Very easy to get a website up and going in an hour.

Cons

The SEO capabilities are very limited. You can not gain real market reach with organic SEO with Go daddy.

### "Using GoDaddy to build a website"

October 19, 2023

4.0

Pros

I always thought GoDaddy was only a domain delivery, however when searching for a Wix or template website builder, I saw that GoDaddy was a player in the game now. I chose GoDaddy based on pricing and trying out the website builder tool. It has some nice basic features to build a site for someone with no real experience.

Cons

During the process of building a website, I did notice that there are a few frustrating things as compared to the Wix website builder. The builder is slow and takes time to refresh, there are a few bugs that need to be fixed. There are limited layout options and color applications if I want to brand my site with intention and not use it out of the box. The domain purchase linked to the builder is a little clunky as well on the billing end.

### "GoDaddy Website Builder"

March 23, 2023

4.0

Es perfecto para iniciarte en la creación de un sitio Web, rápido y sencillo. Todo ha sido como me esperaba, y en cuestión de minutos ya estaba el sitio Web funcionando. La experiencia ha sido buena.

Pros

GoDaddy Website Builder es una utilidad sencilla para iniciados, con una gran facilidad de uso para crear un sitio web. en cuestión de minutos tienes montado su página Web sin tener muchos conocimientos. Tiene planes bastantes interesantes de precios, para iniciarte en la creación de un sitio Web es suficiente

Cons

No tiene muchas opciones de personalización lo que hace que tu Web pueda parecerse a otras. Las prestaciones también son menores pero esto es lo que tiene ser algo sencillo de implementar y rápido. A nivel visual no es tan atractivo el sitio Web como otras opciones del mercado.

Reason for choosing GoDaddy Website Builder

Para probar el servicio de creación de páginas Web por su facilidad y rapidez de implementación y por la relación calidad precio.

### "Go Daddy Has Not Been Able to Keep Up with Competition"

December 18, 2018

2.0

Poor, there are better site builders.

Pros

It's easy to use and reasonably priced.

Cons

I have 5 or so active websites. When I started building sites for my companies many years ago, I used Yahoo!. Yahoo! was good, but they stopped offering that service so I switched to Go Daddy. The Go Daddy templates not only are limited, but they don't look very nice. So, once I heard about Wix, I switched to them. I will admit, Wix is not perfect and I think that there is still room for a better competitor in this space or for Wix to improve. Because Wix has gained some moat in this space, they have been stubborn on pricing. As a result, I decided to check out Go Daddy again recently. While they have somewhat improved their offering, it is still behind the competition and even if it is a little cheaper than Wix, not worth it.

### "Easy to Use"

December 11, 2018

5.0

It's been easy to use and I don't have to deal with plugin updates, etc. The site runs on its own without needing any real upkeep.

Pros

We have one website hosted using Godaddy's website builder. It's been live for several years and I see no reason to change it. Pros: Simple to use. You don't need any advanced tech or website building skills. Offers customizable options for fonts and images. Great if you don't want to invest time in using more advanced website software to maintain a clean and simple site. Convenient if you purchased your domain at Godaddy since you don't have to forward, redirect or transfer anything.

Cons

I wouldn't suggest it for truly creative types or those who want a more advanced platform. To me, this is great for the smaller business owner who wants a great site for little time investment.

### "I have recommended website builder to clients for more than 7 years. I find it easy to use."

January 19, 2018

4.0

No design or coding skills needed Fits most budgets Great for startups or small organizations Great functionality with common features needed by mot operations Social integration Can add images and documents Ecommerce feature Can train others to use easily

Pros

It is easy to get started and is very intuitive. Anyone can have their web presence up and running in no time, with a great look for a great price. The variety of themes/templates covers a wide number of industries. You can add images, documents and link to videos and also collect payments. If you are an affiliate it takes html so the site is clean and professional. Social media integration and linking to other content is a plus.

Cons

As far as cons, not being able to have a scrolling marquee is a feature I would like to see Godaddy add.

### "If all you want is basic and don't care about support, it works."

January 17, 2019

3.0

For someone with no web design experience, who wants a nice looking and functional site, and who isn't interested in getting help if you run into problems, GoCentral is a viable website builder. If you want to control the design and functionality of your website, there are better options, more reasonably priced options.

Pros

We switched from WordPress to GoCentral when needing to update our website. The simplicity of the platform made the transition quick and the resulting site a major improvement from our outdated previous site. It also gave us a mobile friendly site automatically as part of the build.

Cons

While limited options felt nice when just knocking out the original design, the limitations have stopped us from doing many of the upgrades we had hoped once the initial site was up. There is a small set of preset fonts available, workarounds are often needed to get layouts to display as desired, and no control of the back end is available at all. Customer support is laughable when working through issues. At one point they told me I was not able to add a type of layout that was already part of my published site.

### "Great for do it yourself or starting in web design "

January 27, 2024

4.0

I did not choose this but I used it and overall it got the job done. I do have to say that after the 1 year was over the renewal price doubled and because it was a GoDaddy site you cant move to a new host. (we rebuilt it on wordpress)

Pros

It is user-friendly and great for those who just need to setup a site for themself or have Godaddy help. But not ideal for those who want to code or customize things.

Cons

Not enough access for customizing the website php or webserver dashboard. The renewal price doubles.

Reason for choosing GoDaddy Website Builder

I did not have a choice or a say in the matter.

June 9, 2020

4.0

I am able to put up a website really quickly that is searchable and indexed by Google. I don't have to put in any additional work in ensuring the website can easily be scraped by Google's bots.

Pros

I really like it for the simplicity in putting content up quickly and benefiting from built in search engine optimization.

Cons

Dated templates and very boring looking templates. They work well for organizations that are monochrome in nature (banking, accounting etc) - not something fashionable and trendy.

### "Great way to keep track of all your URL’s"

April 9, 2021

4.0

I use it as anyone would when building a website, I like the built in options and the customization. Even if I don’t stick with their website builder in the future I will certainly keep using them for yearly renewals.

Pros

I find it easy to use and manage, I like to be able to have all my websites in one place as well and be able to pay and renew my URLs in the same space.

Cons

I am just not sure the price is right, it seems a little high compared to their competitors. I started using GoDaddy as a way to manage my URLs and pay for them each year so I have been a long time user of their services but am newer to their web building.

Pros

GoDaddy offers a wide deals from customizing and building websites with the help of over 100+ customizable templates which are of easy editing because it doesn't require any coding knowledge so the users can create and customize websites as per need with the help of GoDaddy's easy UI and easy understandable functions!

Cons

GoDaddy charges too much for the amount of functionalities it provides as it costs high if we need to do any add-ons any later.

March 31, 2021

With this platform we can create the best websites with the help of this application with minimal cost and security. The new updates can be taken with the latest version.

Pros

Building the website with minimal cost and having a high security. Helps in building the own domain based Mail. Flexibility in creating the website with multiple features. Easy payment options is quite helpful in this application.

Cons

When problem faced Instant chat with the support team is not possible, this feature can be added. The user interface speed is quite low. When files corrupted, the files which need to be taken or restored is quite expensive which can be reduced.

### "Basic website at your fingertips"

February 4, 2022

4.0

Overall, GoDaddy Website Builder enabled me with no website building experience to create a functioning and appealing website with relevant ease. Great product for beginners.

Pros

Good product to help business owners create a simple website to create an online presence. The inclusion of templates helps those that are less creative to build a working, nice-looking website. The SSL certification provides a level of validity to the website which is helpful. Also, the ability to integrate with Paypal is a nice feature. The software gives users the ability to add features as need which can be useful as a business grows and needs their website to do more.

Cons

I was a little disappointed that the basic software packet did not include some search engine optimization. There is a buzz that businesses succeed when customers are able to find them so having that component can help small businesses or those starting out even more. That seems like something that should be included rather than a feature needing to be purchased.

I have many websites hosted and so far without any problem.

Pros

The truth is a good place, provides a lot of security when it comes to buying and offers good hosting services, domains and other things necessary for your website.

Cons

I think in general it's good and the support is very good but what I do not like is that I do not see anywhere to create help tickets or an online chat.
