uCoz
Website builder with modules, server-side scripts and AI tools
Weebly
Drag-and-drop website and store builder from Square
Which one is for you
Pick uCoz if
- Fits if you want a cheap site with room to add scripts later
- Works for hobby sites that can live on a free plan
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you stay free: ads, 400 MB and removal for inactivity
- Skip it if you need server-side scripts or live chat support on the cheapest plan: they start at $7.99
- Watch out: only monthly figures are shown, so the billing term behind each price is unclear
- Pricey if you want a shop: Shop is $9.99, and Maximal is $15.99
Pick Weebly if
- Fits if you already take payments with Square and want the shop online too
- Works for a free store with unlimited items, if Square ads on the site are acceptable
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want PayPal at checkout, as that needs Performance at $32 a month
- Not for you if you need bookings or memberships, which the listing doesn't cover
- Tight if you're staying free, since there's no custom domain and the Square ads stay
- Pricey if you just want the ads gone: Personal at $13 still shows them, so it's Professional at $15
- Watch out: the included domain is a one-year credit that must be registered within 45 days of buying the plan
How we grade them
| 2.2GPAuCozFair | 2.4GPAWeeblyFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | BBasic is $5.99 a month, inside the cheaper quarter ($7.42), but the page does not say which billing term that price assumes. | CProfessional is $15 a month on yearly billing ($20 monthly), and that's the plan a business would buy, since it's the first without Square ads. That's bang in the middle of what site builders charge. Personal at $13 puts your domain on but keeps the ads. |
| Free plan and trial | CA free plan with 400 MB, an SEO module and FTP, but with ads, no AI content or automatic backups, and the site can be removed for inactivity. | BFree with no time limit, with SSL, SEO tools, lead capture forms and a store with unlimited items, coupons and inventory. The catches are Square ads and no custom domain, so a business will pay sooner or later. |
| Features | CModules, AI tools and server-side scripts, but scripts, AI Code and live chat support start at Optimal at $7.99. | CPages, a blog and a store with inventory, coupons, shipping labels and digital goods, plus an App Center. But payments go through Square unless you're on Performance, where PayPal and abandoned cart emails live, and nothing in the listing covers bookings or memberships. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record, and you build and configure modules yourself. | CNo App Store rating on record. You drag elements onto themes that adjust for phones, but you're still building a whole site, pages, products and all, before it's ready. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only, with Telegram listed and a public API. | BA web app that ties into Square, PayPal, Instagram and Facebook, with an App Center of third-party add-ons inside the editor. No desktop or phone app is listed. |
| Best for | sites with modules and server-side scripts | small shops already taking payments with Square |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
