What our research says

Durable

Aimed squarely at trades and local services that have never had a website, and honest about it — the generated site is a competent one-page brochure, not a design. The reason to pay is the CRM, invoicing and booking bolted around it; judged purely as a page builder it loses to the free tiers of the general-purpose tools.

Pros

The free tier is a genuinely usable live site, not a time-limited preview
Custom domain registration is included in the paid tiers rather than billed separately
The 15% annual discount means month-to-month is not punitively priced, unlike most tools here
CRM, invoicing and scheduling in the same subscription remove two or three other bills

Cons

The free CRM stops at ten contacts, which any working business passes in a fortnight
Generated sites share a recognisable structure, so differentiation has to come from the copy
No API and no export path, so the site and the customer records live where they were made
Even Grow, the top self-serve tier, meters the assistant and image studio at 5,000 AI credits a month

WebZum

Aimed squarely at the tradesperson or shop owner who has no site at all, and it removes every decision from that process - research, copy, logo, images, chatbot, done in minutes. Flat monthly pricing with unlimited edits is friendlier than the credit meters most generators use. The trade-off is the usual one for this format: you are renting a site you cannot easily take with you, and the multilingual pages are machine-translated by the vendor's own admission.

Pros

Generates copy, logo, and business-specific imagery rather than stock placeholders
Produces a multi-page site, typically three to seven pages, not a single landing page
Includes a visitor-facing chatbot in the build
Flat monthly price with unlimited edits and a 30-day refund window

Cons

No free tier - you pay before seeing your finished site
Legal pages are openly machine-translated, with only the English version binding
No stated export or self-hosting path if you cancel
No API, no e-commerce, and no booking functionality described
