Free website builder
Pick a professionally designed template, add your business details and publish it on a free we.inc address. Up to 3 sites, free for as long as you like, no credit card.
Honest version: the free plan is templates only and has no AI. Having AI write the site for you starts on Starter at $20 a month.
A free website builder should let you do three things without paying: make a site that looks professional, put it online, and keep it online. We.Inc's free plan does all three. You get up to 3 sites built from templates, published on a free we.inc address, and they stay live for as long as you like.
What it does not do is write the site for you. The AI website builder, where you describe your business in a sentence and it writes every page, is a paid feature that starts at $20 a month. We would rather say that here than let you find out halfway through.
So the free plan suits you if you are happy to fill in a template yourself: a new business testing an idea, a club or side project, a portfolio, or anyone who needs a real web page this week and does not want another monthly bill yet.
Most "free" website builders hide the limits until you try to publish. Here is the whole list, up front.
| Free plan | Starter | |
|---|---|---|
| Sites you can publish | Up to 3 | Unlimited sites |
| How you build | Start from a template and edit it | Describe your business and AI builds the site |
| Web address | A free we.inc address | Your own custom domain |
| AI building and editing | Not included | Included, 250 credits a month |
| Credit card to start | Not required | Required |
| Price | $0 | $20 a month |
Pro ($50 a month) and Max ($99 a month) add more AI credits. See every plan.
No design or coding skills needed. If you can edit a document, you can do this.
Step 1
Sign up with your email. There is no trial clock and no card to enter, because the free plan is not a trial: your template sites stay online on the free plan for as long as you want them.
Step 2
Browse the template library by category: restaurants, fitness, healthcare, portfolios, agencies, online stores and more. Open a live preview before you choose, so you know exactly what you are getting.
Step 3
Replace the name, headlines, photos, services and contact details with your own. Click on any text on the page to change it. Keep the sections you need and delete the ones you don't.
Step 4
Hit publish and the site goes live on a we.inc address you can share straight away: on your Google Business Profile, Instagram bio, business cards or invoices. Page titles, a sitemap and share images are set for you.
Every template below is a real design from the We.Inc library, and any free account can publish it. Open any of them in the library to see a live preview before you choose.
A free website is enough when you mostly need to be findable and look credible: your services, opening hours, a few photos, a way to contact you. For a lot of small businesses that covers the first year.
It stops being enough when the address starts to matter. A we.inc address is fine on a flyer, but customers trust yourbusiness.com more, and a custom domain needs a paid plan. It also stops being enough when you would rather not fill in every section by hand: that is where the AI builder earns its $20 a month.
If you are weighing up other free plans, we compared nine of them, including Wix, Google Sites and Squarespace, in the best free website builders for small business.
On Starter and above, you skip the template filling. Type a sentence such as "a family plumbing company in Austin with a quote form" into the box at the top of this page, and the AI builds a multi-page site with your services, your town and your contact details written in.
You then change anything by clicking on it or by asking in chat, connect your own domain, and export the code to GitHub whenever you like.
Yes. The free plan lets you build up to 3 sites from templates and publish them free on a we.inc address, with no credit card. It has no AI. Building and editing with AI starts on Starter at $20 a month with 250 credits.
Create a free We.Inc account, pick a template, replace the text and photos with your own, and publish. Your site goes live on a free we.inc address. A simple site can be finished in one sitting.

No. The free plan is templates only. If you want AI to write the whole site from a description of your business, and to edit it by asking in chat, that starts on Starter at $20 a month with 250 credits.
No. It is a plan, not a trial. Your template sites stay published on the free plan for as long as you like, and you only pay if you decide to upgrade.
Yes. When you upgrade, your sites stay where they are. You can then connect your own domain and use AI to rewrite a template around your business.
It depends on what you need from the free plan. We compared nine free website builders, including what each free plan includes and where it stops, in our guide to the best free website builders for small business.
Several builders have a free plan, but free plans almost always use the builder's own address instead of your domain, and many add ads or limits. We.Inc's free plan publishes up to 3 template sites on a we.inc address with no card and no time limit. It has no AI, and your own domain needs a paid plan from $20 a month.
Yes, if you accept the builder's address instead of your own domain. We.Inc hosts up to 3 template sites free on a we.inc address, with SSL included. What free hosting rarely covers is a custom domain: connecting yourbusiness.com needs a paid plan, starting with Starter at $20 a month, and the domain itself is bought separately.
Wix has a free plan, but at the time of writing it shows Wix ads and publishes on a wixsite.com address; removing the ads and using your own domain needs a paid plan. Plans and prices change, so check Wix's pricing page. For comparison, We.Inc's free plan publishes up to 3 template sites on a we.inc address, without AI.
At the time of writing, GoDaddy's website builder did not list a free plan for publishing; its paid plans had lower first-year prices that rise on renewal. Offers change, so check GoDaddy's pricing page before you sign up. If you want to publish for free, We.Inc's free plan puts up to 3 template sites live on a we.inc address.
The easiest free option is one where you start from a finished template and only replace the words and photos. That is how We.Inc's free plan works: pick a template, edit by clicking, and publish on a we.inc address, no card needed. If you would rather describe the business and have AI write it, that starts at $20 a month.
For most small businesses, a template builder with a genuine free plan is the cheapest start, and an AI builder is the easiest. We.Inc does both: up to 3 template sites free on a we.inc address, or AI that writes the whole site from $20 a month on Starter, which also lets you connect your own domain.
Start free with a template, or describe your business and let AI build it on Starter.
Free plan: up to 3 template sites on a we.inc address, no card. AI building from $20/mo.
