These cost nothing to use as long as you stick with the initial feature set. However extra features may cost some money - either as a one off fee or monthly.

1. Being free is a great advantage especially if you are just starting your business and want to test if there is an online market for your products or services.
2. They are usually easy to use without technical knowledge - Colours, text, backgrounds, position of features - can be changed easily
4. It is easy to add and maintain new sections, pages or articles.
5. Some have a lot of useful built in functions such a video, forums, chat which are quite easy to set up.

Cons:
For business purposes they may have these limitations.

1. They may have one fixed structure so to a degree most websites look very similar rather than unique.
2. Extra features cost extra money which may actually end up costing more than paid website builders – usually just those features a business needs such as e.g. - Your own dedicated domain name - Ability to carry sponsored adverts or e-commerce facilities - Removing the website builders link from the bottom of your site so no one knows your website was built for free.
3. More advanced features may require some technical ability and time to set up e.g. video.
4. You are limited to the template designs provided.

Choose this option if:
· Your website does not need to be absolutely unique in appearance.
· You want a site with lots of features.
· You would like to fully design and test your site without paying and

Free Hosted Website Builders

Sometimes you only need to purchase a domain with the package being free - Usually because the web host hopes you will eventually pay for more advanced features.

Hosted Website Builders are usually wizard driven – i.e. a software wizard leads you step by step through the process of building your website.

These website builders vary in quality and features depending on the host.

Pros:

• Free – as long as you retain your website hosting.
• Wizard driven – very easy to use for non technical people.
• Very quick website building.
• You can use them to put up a temporary website for free while you redesign or build a more professional version of your website in the background.

Cons

• Variable quality of designs and availability of features from host to host
• There is often no demo so you may not be able to see what you will end up with until you have signed up for and paid for web hosting
• You may not be able to incorporate other features of the hosts into your website unless you upgrade e.g. newsletters, forums, e-commerce.

For any small business venture the idea of saving costs by building your website using free to use software is a very attractive one.

The good news is that there are now several online systems that will enable you to build your website for free or almost for free. The bad news is that not all are suitable for business use.

From a business perspective you need to choose your website builder carefully as many potential customers may choose whether or not to do business with you based solely on how presentable and professional looking your website is.

What factors do you need to consider when building your business website?

Compared to a personal or home website, business website require several additional essential features or features which are of more imporatance some of which include:

• Professional Layout - images and appearance

It is important for your professional image that you choose a website builder that has good quality template designs or allows you to modify the layout.

• Branding

You should not build a business site with a website builder that will not allow you to remove their link - even if you need to pay for it.

• Security

This will be completely in the hands of the website builders hosting. Choose a well established website builder. How? By reputation and patronage e.g. type their name into a search engine and see how many people are using them.

• Backup Facilities

Check what they say about their security features and backup policies - or if they are mentioned at all.
