Some platforms, like Wix, Webflow, and Squarespace, also known as starter or DIY platforms, offer convenience and affordability, but they often come with significant drawbacks..

Problems with DIY and starter platforms:

Customization Constraints: While they provide pre-designed templates and elements, they often limit your ability to customize the website's look and feel to a significant degree.

Performance and SEO: These platforms can sometimes impact website performance and search engine optimization (SEO) due to their shared infrastructure and limitations in code customization.

Vendor Lock-in: Once you've invested time and resources into building a website on these platforms, it can be difficult and costly to migrate to a different platform if your needs change.

Limited Control: You may have less control over the underlying technology and infrastructure, which can be a disadvantage for businesses with complex requirements.

Given these drawbacks and limitations, we believe that DIY platforms are not the best solution for businesses with complex requirements. While they may seem like a cost-effective option in the short term, the long-term costs of using these platforms, such as potential loss of revenue due to poor performance or the need to hire a developer for migration, can far outweigh the initial savings.
