Which one is for you
Pick Webnode if
- Fits if you want a site, a domain and a work email address for under $10 a month
- Works for personal sites and blogs that can live for free on a webnode.com address
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if Webnode branding on your site bugs you, as it stays until Standard at $12.90
- Pricey if you pay monthly, at $24.90 for Standard against $12.90 billed yearly
- Tight if you might want your money back later, since refunds stop 15 days after a first order
- Watch out: yearly prices are shown cut from higher ones, and the page doesn't say whether renewals cost the same
- Too light for a shop below Profi, as variants, discounts and international shipping wait for it at $22.90
Pick Yola if
- Fits if you want to start a small site free and upgrade later
- Works for someone who would pay Business Elite to have it built for them
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want one bill: online store plans are separate and start at $14.95 a month

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.
