How this quiz decides
This quiz encodes the same reasoning as our written comparison — no platform pays us, and the honest answer is sometimes the cheapest one. The business that picks the platform matching its needs and actually launches is better off than the one that picks the "serious" option and never finishes.

FAQ
Platform questions, answered honestly
Which is best: WordPress, Webflow or Squarespace?
None of them — universally. Squarespace is best when you want a professional site that maintains itself. Webflow is best for B2B/SaaS companies serious about design and SEO. WordPress is best for custom functionality and large content operations, if you can fund its upkeep. The right question is which one fits your situation.
Which website platform is cheapest?
Webflow standard sites run $168–$468/year and Squarespace $192–$1,188/year, both all-inclusive. WordPress looks cheapest ($60–$100 hosting) but a properly maintained WordPress site — security, backups, caching, SEO tooling, managed hosting — typically costs $1,800–$6,000 per year.
Which platform is best for SEO?
Squarespace covers SEO basics well. For competitive terms, Webflow and WordPress give you more precise on-page control — Webflow sites consistently outrank Squarespace on competitive queries, and WordPress's plugin ecosystem gives large content operations genuine leverage.
Is WordPress worth the maintenance burden?
Only if you actually need what it uniquely offers: custom functionality, complex e-commerce, multi-language, or a large editorial operation. If you don't, the most common platform mistake is choosing WordPress because it's "industry standard" and discovering the upkeep is more than you bargained for.
Can I switch platforms later?
Yes — content migrates, and businesses do it all the time. But migrations cost time and some SEO risk (URLs and internal links change), so it's cheaper to pick the right fit now. The quiz above takes 60 seconds; a migration takes weeks.
When does a custom-built website make more sense than any platform?
When custom functionality, integrations, or performance requirements would mean fighting the platform — customer portals, unusual booking flows, deep system integrations. A custom build (like the fast, SEO-ready sites we develop) often costs less than heavily customising a platform. If the quiz flags this, ask us — sometimes the honest answer is still a platform.
