Hi, I’m Steve and I try every website builder so you don’t have to.
I've been writing reviews of website builders on SiteBuilderReport.com since 2013 and producing videos since 2017. I try hard to explain the differences between website builders in clear language- no BS and no fluff.
I live in Toronto and make music in my spare time (stevebenjamins.com). My work is supported by earning an affiliate commission when readers buy a tool based on my reviews.
Let me know if you have any feedback!

We've been promised AI generated websites for a long time. So what is the state of the art? Is this even possible today? Well I made a list of a bunch of different AI website tools (see list below) and tried 'em all. I narrowed the list down to 5 (see below) that I think give an overview of where we're at. Honestly many of the tools were kinda the same thing: they used ChatGPT AI to generate we...

How To Make A Website - Simple & Fast In 14 Minutes
You forgot Elementor. It’s easy to use & gives you all around full control.
Before using GoDaddy, be forewarned. They have now partnered with Vimeo. When trying to upload video content from your hard drive, they now force you to go through Vimeo. If Vimeo, which is notorious for censorship, doesn't like your content, they will shut down your Vimeo account and you have basically paid GoDaddy for a service that you can't use. You can't access your hard drive to upload video content directly. After 4-5 customer service calls with no one taking this issue seriously, I will warn everyone I can not to use GoDaddy until they dissolve their partnership with Vimeo or change the policy to allow you to upload video content WITHOUT going through Vimeo!
Amazing high quality content i have ever seen on website building. Can you also pls post on how to link CMS to the online store
Thank you! And that's a great topic idea :)
Wordpress 😁
woke up at 3am and couldn't sleep. started working on a website. found your videos after a bunch of fruitless searching. gotta say, hands down these were the best videos on the topic I've seen. seriously terrific on every level. finally commenting now after seeing The Design of Everyday Things in this video - love this book & love this channel. thanks so much for all of the effort you're putting in it's super helpful and valuable.
That's amazing! Thanks for taking the time to say so - and for noticing the Design of Everyday Things, I wasn't sure how many would know the reference :D
amazing video. I wish i was able to subscribe you 3 more times
Thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to say so :)
Webflow has the best of both worlds. There's a learning curve, but once you have the basics, the creativity will flow.
Well said 👍
Thank you
can splurge for a domain name, with a redirect to whatever domain they give you, extra $15/yr. yes?
Great point 👍
Any idea where the download image function of Snazzy went? Cannot find it anymore!
incredible video man - informative and entertaining 👌
Thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to say so :)
piano is too loud thank you
I appreciate the feedback - good to know!
thank you for sticking to ur principles!
Thank you for your insight. "Keeping things simple and clear as possible," "Speak humanly and plainly."
Glad you connected with it! :)
These are all great! I love Squarespace and Mighty Sites is also a good one, that you didn't include.... I like that I didn't have to do too much to launch my own website.
You are awesome! Keep it up! God Bless.
extremely helpful, thank you so much!
Gold! 😂
Great video! 14:15 Wix has a CMS too tho, no?
You're right. I probably should mention that in my iteration of this video - thanks for the feedback 👍
this is so amazing thank you so much man
Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to say so :)
Thanks
Thanks
We developers from Nigeria it's almost impossible to do it. Our payment info does not work on Google, they don't accept it at all
You can print shipping labels from Wix though. I've done it.
I really like your style Steve! It's pretty rare to find this mood here on youtube. Calming, relaxing, clear explanation, pure value. Keep it up man!
will canceling the subscription apply the ".squarespace" at the end of the domain and still keep all the content? that's what I would like to do so I don't have to pay.
Thanks for a clear and concise explanation on these two products. Appreciate you cutting out the BS. 😊 Shopify is what I need.
Did I miss something? Which one was the best?
Thank you.
Nice
What are your thoughts on Framer and Wix Studio (not necessarily Wix Classic, as that’s been covered on this video).
Are there any tools left that let you develop your site locally and the upload to your hosting and don't have to pay monthly fee, just one time software tool price?
genuinely incredible video, thank you
Is carrd compatible with all web browsers?
😂😂😂 spot on
Another great video. I think Steve is my NBFF
Even if this guy works for/at carrd... it is one of the best videos I've come across for simple use cases. Plain language and fair comparisons for his design brief. 👍
Insightful👍
Thanks
thanks for this video, surprised readymag isn't in this though :O
Amazing video bro! Yeah I used to use wordpress/elementor. Worked but there were so many bugs and updating plugins all the time. It was a nightmare! I decided to learn Webflow & Client-First from Finsweet. Also with integrations like memberstack you can do some pretty crazy stuff. Been working on a platform for entrepreneurs for the past 6 months & been able to create search & filter systems, back office, & linking that up with a community in Skool. Even though a higher learning curve, totally worth it to learn!
This is an incredibly helpful video, thanks Steve! :)
Good, thorough, common sense thinking. Speech was article and at a good speed- not fast, not slow. Nice video with helpful content. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
JUNE 2024 UPDATE: Carrd now has a "Sectioned" option. One-page designs that simulate multiple pages using section breaks that loads as if it's more than one-page... it's pretty awesome! Just wanted to let everyone know. <3

Awesome video!!
Grt story telling keep up mam and my question is how much costs to integrate with site
I bought into the grid. I don't even think I ever got the Keychain.
Great video! I wanted to touch base on Shopify - It does have a bit more customization than you stated. When customizing you can create templates for other types of pages. So instead of just editing the home page layout, you can create product specific templates, or collection templates, and then connect those afterward. This gives you a lot more options in terms of customization.
THANKS SO MUCH MAN. This was quick and strait too the point. you just save me HOURS..
Glad it helped!!
