Has our article "Why choose a website builder?" convinced you that you too can build your own website for your company or organisation with the help of a website builder? Great! Now, make sure you also choose the right tool for the job: Combell's SiteBuilder.

With Combell's SiteBuilder, you can create a professional and highly secure website in no time at all, even if you have little or no knowledge of technology or graphic design. Our SiteBuilder is user-friendly, very versatile, and most importantly: you can count on Combell's renowned support team! Let us list all the benefits...

1. Combell's SiteBuilder excels in user-friendliness

Since a website builder is primarily intended for users who have no technical background, user-friendliness is an important prerequisite. You have to be able to get started easily, and the different steps you have to go through should feel intuitive.

And that is precisely Combell's SiteBuilder strength. Right from the first step: you just order your SiteBuilder package, and we set everything up for you. We even take care of the connection with your domain name in the background.

Using SiteBuilder is child's play. The menu is self-explanatory, and when you move your cursor over a menu item, a pop-up tells you what you can do with this function.

You can add or move all the elements using drag & drop. And you can also preview what your website will look like once online at any moment. That is really motivating, because you can see the results of your work right away!

2. Start with a basic yet fully developed and easily customisable theme

The greatest advantage of a website builder is that you can use themes or templates. Such tools include all the different building blocks you need on your website: presentation of your product, contact information, opening hours, and so on.

With Combell's SiteBuilder, you can choose from more than 100 beautiful themes.

Moreover, the themes have been fully adapted to certain professions. There are themes for all possible sectors: plumbers, personal trainers, hotels, fitness centres, and so on.

With each theme, you get a fully developed website, in which you only have to adapt the texts and pictures to suit the needs of your own company. 

Furthermore, the themes offered in Combell's SiteBuilder are fully responsive, which means that they can be viewed on any device (desktop, tablet or smartphone).

Take a look at the themes without any obligation, and you will be amazed by how comprehensive these websites are. And remember: all you have to do is change the pictures and texts, and that website can be yours!

You can customise your basic theme and enhance it by adding widgets. This way, you can add an extra image or text, a button or column, but also extra features, such as a contact form or a map showing the location of your business.

As standard, Combell's SiteBuilder comes with a wide range of widgets that you can use as you please.

Moreover, you can also connect your website to external services, such as social media, a payment service such as PayPal, a review service such as TripAdvisor, and so forth.

3. Combell's support staff are always on hand

Are you still worried that you will get stuck somewhere? There is no need to panic, because with Combell's support staff on hand, you are never on your own!

Even if you are not yet experiencing any particular problem, it is sometimes nice to have some guidelines to help you out when you start using a new tool. That is why we have drawn up a clear support pages to teach you the best practices for using our SiteBuilder, or to provide you with quick answers in case of doubt.

From the very beginning to advanced options: for each of these steps, you can find out how to proceed in practice.

4. SEO options included to promote your website

Creating a beautiful website is one thing, but making sure future customers can find your website is another. SEO or Search Engine Optimisation is indispensable to ensure that your website ranks high in search engine results when people search for particular keywords. 

But Combell's SiteBuilder is quite brilliant in this respect too. It helps you fill in the meta description and image alt tags and also automatically create a sitemap. You can even customise the URL of each page. These are all factors that make it easy for web crawlers to index your pages in the search index.

You obviously also want to make sure that your SEO efforts pay off. For this purpose, Combell's SiteBuilder provides you with detailed statistics: you can see how many visitors your website received, when, using which device, and how many visitors there were per page.

Moreover, you can get more marketing possibilities with your free Flexmail account with Combell: with it, you can send up to 5 campaigns per month to 200 contacts!

5. Your SiteBuilder website is also GDPR compliant

Combell's Sitebuilder is also an excellent choice when it comes to privacy. From a legal point of view, you have to publish your privacy policy on your website, and you have to request consent to store cookies on your visitor's device (small files that help your website recognise that visitor).

Thanks to Combell's SiteBuilder, there is no need to agonise over this issue, as the themes include a template for your privacy policy.

And the cookie policy is automatically managed in the background. In addition, your SiteBuilder website is hosted on Combell servers that are located in Belgium, as required by the GDPR.

7. Extra features allow for seamless and continued growth

In the beginning, you may want to create a simple website covering your basic needs. But Combell's SiteBuilder packages also come with everything you need to further develop your website (see comparison).

Combell' SiteBuilder helps you build your ideal website, without any advertising, and at a very attractive price.

A few extra features that may be of help:

1. Member registration: Does your website contain content you'd rather not share with everyone? Then you can ask your visitors to register. That way, only approved members can see certain things on your website.
2. Add a blog. Bring news in the form of a blog so that your visitor will regularly return to your website. A blog is also ideal for the SEO of your website, because search engines love topical content.
3. Add a webshop. Most of our SiteBuilder packages come with a webshop included, which you activate when you are ready.

Combell's SiteBuilder vs. a "free" website builder

There are also other services that allow you to use a website builder for free, but what exactly is the difference with our SiteBuilder? Well, the answer is quite simple. First of all, the themes are very limited with a free tool. You also have no access to all the advanced features. Why? Mainly because "free" is usually not really free! Such a provider may e.g. place ads on your website, and if you do not want those advertisements, you have to go for a paid version. Often, it is also impossible to connect your own domain name – unless you pay an extra fee.

With Combell's SiteBuilder, you can build your ideal website, without any ads, at a very attractive price, depending on the SiteBuilder package you choose. Moreover, the registration of your domain name is free for the first year.
