5 Websites You Didn't Know You Could Use to Create a Website.

You don’t need to pay hundreds of dollars to create your own website anymore! In this article, you’ll learn five websites that will let you start your own free website with minimal effort and no design experience required.

Google Sites:

Sometimes, you don’t need an entire website—you just need somewhere for people to see your content. If you want something simple and don’t want to pay for hosting, Google Sites is one way of building your own platform without any coding required. This is great if you want other people involved in building your website, or if you just like playing around with a lot of different layouts. It’s also free! If you are creating a site that will be live on your domain name, we recommend using WordPress instead of Google Sites. But if you are just creating a basic site as part of a project (and aren’t planning on ever making it live), Google Sites can be really helpful! There are templates available to make creating websites really easy. In addition, it makes collaborating with others easily by giving them access to edit and share documents.

Pad let:

With pad let, you can create an online wall where you can post and arrange images, text, videos, and documents. It’s great for organizing classroom assignments (if your school offers an account), sharing family updates with grandparents, or telling friends about your big trip. And because it’s free, there are no limits on how many people can view what you post. If you want to make something private, however, that option is available too. In addition to being able to share links from your pad let page via email or social media, you can also embed any part of your page on other websites. Think of it as a Pinterest board that’s easily accessible on any device.

Shapiro:

You can create simple and basic websites using Shapiro. The best part about it is that it is free! It includes advanced features for adding websites and blogging through WordPress. It also has some templates as well. Once you're done with your website, simply export it and, you're ready to go! This site requires no coding knowledge or any prior experience in creating websites. All you need is just your imagination and, creativity. With Shapiro, you can do all of these things without spending a single penny on creating your own website. In addition, if you have a really cool idea for an app or even a game, you can actually create those too using Shapiro. So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and try out Shapiro today!

Wing:

A platform for building your own social network, Wing is great for anyone who wants to create an online community (as in, people coming together of their own volition) without having to do too much technical legwork. Membership is free, as is the content. And if you want a little more structure, paid plans are available. Sites made with wings include Pet finder and many others in various niches. See how it works.

Pageant:

Who says you need your own domain name and hosting provider in order to create a website? While pageant is not quite as robust as something like WordPress, it's completely free and won’t tie you down. Best of all, pageant offers users full control over their content and design—no HTML skills required. Just sign up for an account with them, link up with their service on another site (such as Google Docs), and you’re ready to go! This platform also allows you to set up any type of site that you can think of. For example, if you wanted to start a fan page for your favorite band or movie franchise, a pageant could help get it off the ground without costing anything extra. Even better: If one particular page takes off, the pageant can be used to share that success across other sites such as Facebook and Twitter—or simply give it its own URL entirely!
