Frequently asked questions
What is a website builder?
A website builder is a tool that makes creating your site simple and accessible. We’ve optimized Shopify’s website editor for useability—no coding or technical skills needed. You can use it to design a stunning, professional website using drag-and-drop tools, customizable pre-built templates, and AI-powered features that bring your vision to life quickly and affordably.
How do I select the right website builder for my business?
At Shopify, we believe the right website builder should empower you to design a beautiful, functional site without technical hurdles. Look for a platform that offers intuitive design tools, mobile-ready themes, built-in SEO capabilities, and secure payment processing options. Shopify’s website builder is designed with business owners in mind—it grows with you, whether you’re just a solo entrepreneur, a small business, or a large enterprise corporation.
Can I create an online store with any website builder?
While many website builders let you create basic sites, not all are built for ecommerce. Shopify’s website builder is purpose-built for online stores, offering everything you need to sell online and run every aspect of your business from one place—like the industry’s best-converting checkout, shipping, analytics, and inventory management tools. Shopify’s built-in marketing and SEO tools also help you connect with your customers and make it easy for your site to get discovered on search engines.
Does Shopify offer AI tools or features to assist with website creation and design?
Absolutely. Shopify’s AI-powered website builder uses smart technology to help you create a custom, personalized site. Beyond website creation, Shopify’s integrated AI capabilities—also known as Shopify Magic—help you craft product descriptions, headlines, and customer communications. They also help with editing product images, so you can take the guesswork out of design tasks.
We also can’t forget Sidekick, the commerce assistant that is built into every Shopify Admin. Sidekick acts as your very own Shopify expert, guiding you with tailored, skilled advice to make you more productive and successful.
What is the average time frame to build a website?
With Shopify’s AI-powered store builder, you can launch a simple, professional site in seconds. Simply enter a description of your business to generate personalized store designs for free. From there, you can use more AI features or drag-and-drop functionality to do further customizations in a breeze.
How much does it typically cost to build a website using a website builder?
Website builder prices may vary, but with Shopify, you can start building a website for free. With our trial, you can get started at no cost, then continue building for $1/month for 3 months. Shopify offers flexible pricing plans starting with affordable monthly subscriptions that include hosting, security, and all the tools you need to run your store. Compared to traditional web development, using Shopify is a cost-effective way to get your business online quickly without hidden fees.
Do I need coding skills to use a website builder?
Not at all. Shopify’s website builder is designed for everyone—no coding required. Our intuitive editor and AI-powered tools let you customize your store’s look and feel effortlessly. And if you want deeper, more advanced customizations, you can also customize your site’s CSS or use Liquid, Shopify’s templating language for building and customizing Shopify themes.
What are the advantages of using a website builder over hiring a web developer?
Using Shopify’s website builder means you can launch your store faster and at a fraction of the cost and time of hiring a developer. You stay in control with easy-to-use tools, built-in hosting, security, and ongoing updates—all without needing technical expertise. Plus, Shopify’s 24/7 support is here whenever you need help.
Is web hosting included with most website builders?
Not all website builders include free hosting, and hosting fees can vary from one platform to another. With Shopify, your website hosting is included and optimized for speed, security, and reliability. Our globally distributed servers ensure your store loads quickly for customers everywhere, so you never have to worry about managing hosting separately.
How can I connect my own domain name to my website?
Shopify makes it simple to connect your custom domain. You can buy a domain directly through Shopify or connect one you already own by updating your DNS settings. Don’t worry, our detailed step-by-step guidance lets connect or transfer an existing domain so your store has a professional web address that matches your brand.
What features should I look for in a website builder?
Look for a website builder that offers:
- Easy drag-and-drop editing and customizable templates
- Mobile-responsive design so your store looks great on any device
- Built-in SEO tools to help customers find you online
- Secure and flexible payment options
- Integrated marketing tools and app store for extended functionality
