There are plenty of options today for building your own website. Squarespace, Wix, Shopify and others have dominated the market in recent years. But when compared to Build, they each fall short in a variety of categories.
Build has an impressive array of capabilities that rival any other modern website builder of today. But no one else has the quality, convenience and features that we do for the same low price. Allow us to explain the 17 reasons Build should be your number one choice:
Even though we are a relatively young company, we have made some great headway in the tech and online marketing world.
We launched beta early this year and, as of January 28, have had 11,000 people sign up to build their own sites. We also have a growing affiliate sales network, through which users can make money referring others to join Build.
Perhaps most propulsive for our company has been the many strategic partnerships we’ve established:
Our Microsoft partnership has been instrumental in our company’s growth. Microsoft has placed us page one of their SME solutions platform called Biz4Afrika, and have accepted us into their Tech Accelerator. In addition, they have agreed to sponsor our hosting costs for 3 years. All this support and interest from Microsoft has and will continue to buttress our next steps with confidence and excitement.
We have partnered with Facebook to offer our users with education materials, webinars and powerful social media marketing tools. This partnership is one that both we and our customers can benefit greatly from as we grow.
Our partnership with Google also gives Build users access advertising vouchers to enable them to kickstart their online presence. Because of this partnership, users can also integrate a multitude of Google services like Goggle Analytics to keep track of their visitors and Google Adsense to place revenue generating adverts on their sites.
2Chechout has partnered with us to enable ecommerce capabilities through Build websites. Because of this, all ecommerce-enabled Build sites will benefit from a seamless integration process that removes all otherwise complex setup. Also, users will benefit from a waived setup fee and access to support for more languages, currencies and territories.
Graphicmail’s partnership with Build allows our users to make use of a tightly integrated email and sms marketing solution. With support in 24 countries around the world, it enables almost any site owner to broadcast their message simply and quickly via these mediums. Also offered are great educational resources as well as free credit vouchers.
In addition to these tech giant partnerships, we have been made the default offering used by a number of local incubators and hubs.
