Something to Consider
Built from scratch vs. Website builders
At CodeCraft, I understand that every client has unique requirements and preferences when it comes to building a website. That's why I offer flexible options to cater to your specific needs. Whether you're looking for a custom-built website from scratch or prefer to use a well-known website builder, I've got you covered.
By working directly with me, you'll have the opportunity to see your vision and business objectives come to life in a website that's not just a template, but a bespoke creation perfectly aligned with your goals.
If you'd like me to use a website builder, I can build you a website using the following services:
Wix
Squarespace
Weebly
Shopify
WordPress
GoDaddy Website Builder
BigCommerce
Jimdo
Zyro
Webflow
Joomla
Drupal
Magento (Adobe Commerce)

Hosting
Every website needs to be hosted on a server for it to be accessible on the Internet.
Choosing the right hosting is crucial for your website's performance, security, and reliability.
At CodeCraft, I offer three hosting options to cater to your specific needs:
You Host
Flexibility and Control: If you prefer to have direct control over your hosting, I can send you the complete website files for self-hosting on your server. This option is ideal for those who have the technical know-how or have access to IT support and wish to manage their server infrastructure.
I Host
Basic Hosting
Perfect for small to medium-sized websites, this plan offers a balance of performance and cost-efficiency. It includes the essentials to keep your website running smoothly without the need for extensive resources.
Advanced Hosting
Tailored for larger websites that require more resources, support, and advanced features. This is the go-to plan for businesses expecting higher traffic or those that operate resource-intensive applications.
Website Builder Hosts
Some drawbacks:
Performance Constraints: Websites built on these platforms can sometimes have performance limitations, particularly for complex sites or those with high traffic.
Cost Over Time: While they may appear cost-effective initially, fees can add up over time, making them more expensive in the long run compared to other hosting options. SEO Limitations: Some website builders have limitations in SEO functionalities, which might affect the site's visibility and ranking on search engines. Platform Dependency: Your website is tied to the platform’s ecosystem, meaning if you decide to move to a different host or platform, it can be a complicated and sometimes limited process.
