As an artist and Studio Art BFA student, this was tremendously helpful, thank you for taking the time to do the research for us! Cargo ended up being the design language I was looking for, thank you so much!

I have watched so many of these videos now and this is honestly the best one out there, well done! Such a brilliantly comprehensive yet also somehow concise rundown of the options out there and I’m so glad you mentioned the Adobe one as I wasn’t even aware of that! Will be checking that out first, then notion

You're a great presenter. Full of energy and enthusiasm. Pleasant to watch and listen.

Wow, thank you so much! Cargo is just what I was searching for, I believe. I can’t stand seeing all those basic Website themes that either try to look like squarespace or ARE squarespace haha Great video :)
-
Yeah, you deserve over 1 million subscribers. Thank you for comprehensive video and great video editing too. Coming from a production mind, I was engaged for 20 minutes, and that's hard for me. I wish I could just pay you to build a great website for me. Thank you again!

Just the breakdown I was looking for, thank you! Appreciate your thoughts and perspective on these

I appreciate this video so much! I'm on my ReadyMag journey now and think its amazing what you can do with that platform! all the best!

Your video provides the most extensive coverage of almost all website builder options out there. A couple of the easy ones for beginners that I know are Hostinger and Durable but I can understand why they didn't even make it to the list lol. I can't wait to try out ReadyMag & Cargo! Thank you Sophie!
-
Your video has been very comprehensive with graphic of pros and cons per builder. Thank you for this!

Thank you so much! I appreciate the detailed explanation of all the different options. I am really just looking for something for a portfolio and I already use adobe so adobe portfolio sounds great for me as a free option! Appreciate you saving me some money on this one!

This is really useful and in-depth. Thanks so much!
