Managing Editor
Emily is a Managing Editor at Website Planet.

Since joining the team in 2019, Emily has worked with writers and editors to publish articles on everything from website builders and freelance websites to email marketing software and logo design services.

With a degree in English Language and Linguistics under her belt, Emily started her career in print journalism before making the move to content marketing where she has written, edited, content managed and consulted on countless brands and clients. As a freelancer, she has worked with a fair few digital marketing tools, so it was only ever a matter of time before she decided to share her many thoughts about them at Website Planet.

Her favourite project to date is producing and managing the digital platform at the UN’s Climate Conference COP26. But, watching the Website Planet team and platform grow over the years has to be up there too.

When she’s not weighing up the strengths and weaknesses of the best email marketing software, she spends most of her time thinking, taking photos of, and talking endlessly about her (almost Insta-famous) cats Loki and Odin.

Wix

With an intuitive drag-and-drop editor and many features to support all kinds of businesses, Wix offers something for everyone. There’s even a super generous free plan you can use to build a fully functional site. It’s one of the few website builders I’ve tested that lives up to its reputation.

Squarespace

Squarespace has been one of my favorites for a while, and writing this review has done nothing to change that. It’s not the cheapest option out there, but if you’re ready to build a site and even make some money off it, then I’d say go for Squarespace. It has plans both for personal sites and business users, and with a long list of interesting features, these plans definitely...

STRATO offers an easy-to-use business-aimed website builder, a smooth user experience, and integrations with the rest of STRATO’s services.

Webnode

Webnode has some great features that you won't find elsewhere, including robust support for SEO and multilingual websites. That said, it also has some annoying limitations, and its editor is not the easiest to use. If you don't mind the learning curve, it might be the right choice for you.

Webflow vs. Wix: Which Platform Offers Better Value in 2025?

Webflow is well-known for its complex web design customization options, so I had my doubts that Wix could match up. But after testing both platforms for weeks, I can say that Wix’s creative power goes far beyond experimenting with colors and layouts. Wix’s drag-and-drop editor lets you customize every element down to a pixel to help you create unique designs. It’s not just...
