So now that we are stuck at home we decided maybe we can try and start building our website. Although we do not have content to put on it yet we thought we might as well start looking at the different websites that we can use in order to build our website.
First, we decided to look at GoDaddy which claimed to be a free and easy to use resource. I looked at the reviews and they all seemed to be pretty good. They stated that it is a trusted and well-known resource and that it is affordable and facilitates the process of building your own website. It also seemed appealing because they seemed to have online employees who are open to helping customers with any issues. This is reassuring because if we have any concerns on how to use GoDaddy we can easily ask. The only issue is that neither my partner nor I have ever used GoDaddy.

Then we looked at Squarespace which was a really user-friendly experience because it provided the option to browse through templates without having made an account. It asked us a few questions on what we were looking to make and then it gave us some options. This was great because it demonstrated that it was a personalized and easy to use tool. However, we realized that Squarespace is not free. It only provides a free 14-day trial. This is a huge negative for us because we don't have a really big budget for this project so we rather use something that is free for us to use that also gives us quality results.

Finally, we looked at Wix which is another well-known and trusted website. It is free and also has really good reviews which state that it provides many features in order to personalize your website to the best of your ability. On Wix, we were also able to browse through the templates without making an account and really allowed us to get a feel for the type of results we would get if we used Wix. We thought it also seemed easy to use and was an affordable option. We also liked that it even offered a specific category of templates for film, which is super helpful for what we are planning to do with our website.

Overall, we think we are going to go with Wix because it is the easiest and most affordable option. It provides templates specifically for what we are going to do which makes us believe that we will be able to get better results from using Wix. Moreover, I have had previous experience using Wix so I already know how to use it and I have never really had any issues with it. So overall we thought this would be the best fit.
