That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 46 of the 54 other web hosts grade higher. It costs $300 a year. - You could not: Servers kept running, patched and backed up for you. - You could not: Speed tests run from real browsers on a schedule.
