  • What does website mean? What is the difference between website and webpage?

    A website is a group of webpages under a domain name or a website name that is available publicly on the internet. A website typically has a cohesive goal or type, including ecommerce, portfolio site, informative blog, about us page, landing page, etc.

    We believe every individual or business deserves to have a website. Our name is Website.com for a reason - we aim to be the ultimate provider of websites for any need. That's why our tools give you the freedom to make a free website at any skill level.
  • What is a domain name? How can I get a free domain?

    A domain name is the unique web address that visitors can type into their browser to find your website, e.g. www.website.com. You can get a free domain with all Website.com premium plans, which also includes web hosting and access to our intuitive tools that help you create your polished and professional-looking website.

    Domain names are unfortunately not free to obtain and own, as primarily domain name providers go through the process of paying a central domain registry to have domains registered under different owners. Luckily, some website builders and web hosts (like us!) cover this cost and offer you a domain name for free as a perk of joining our subscription plans.
  • Do you offer support? How can I contact you?
