Website builder or custom build: which is worth it
Tilda, WordPress or a custom build? We compare price, speed, SEO and long-term cost of ownership.
A builder looks cheaper — and for testing an idea that's true. But for a growing business the difference shows up later: in speed, SEO, uniqueness and the cost of changes.
When a builder is fine
A quick hypothesis test, a small project, a tight budget, a typical task. A builder launches in days and covers the minimum.
When you need a custom build
When speed, a unique brand, serious SEO, complex integrations or a large catalog matter. A builder becomes a ceiling the business bumps into — and overpays for migration.
