I recently put together a short course on all the top hosted website builders that you can use to develop your website. The main reason for creating the course was to save people time in evaluating the hundreds of options for developing an easy-to-manage website.
Some of my main findings were:
You often have to compromise on what you want. It might be the cost of the website builder, the design you want vs the skills you have, whether the site looks good on mobile, who will be doing the website updates etc
Done is better than perfect. More than half of the top hosted website creators would adequately tick the boxes of most small businesses in Australia.

If you’re like me, you’d generally have a preference for hiring someone on a once-off contract rather than taking the risk of hiring staff for a fixed period of time (at least for most jobs). Some common questions you might be asking: Where do I find a freelancer nearby who can work on my website? …
One reason is because there are more tools available to create online marketplaces. For single-sided marketplaces, people can use Shopify, BigCommerce or WordPress (with plugins).
