Certain large companies advertise their simple-to-use website builders, targeting small businesses and emphasising the ease of use. What they don’t seem to tell you is that if you build your website with them in their system, then you are tied to them FOREVER! OK so that’s maybe a bit dramatic, but what I mean is that you’re tied to them and their hosting, and if you ever want to move to a different company, you will need an entirely new website. Yes that’s right – you will lose all of your hard work and will need to start again. Furthermore – they even make it pretty much impossible to export any of your data, which ties you in even further as it seems like too much hassle to make the switch.
