Since we launched SiteGround Website Builder<\/a> last year, thousands of you have used it to build websites, open online stores, and grow your online presence. We’ve been building right alongside you, working to give you a more powerful design experience, stronger ecommerce capabilities, and the tools you need to do more with your site at every stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, we’re announcing a major new version of SiteGround Website Builder. It’s a significant step forward for the entire platform, and it comes with new dedicated plans designed around how you actually build and grow online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the heart of the building experience is a grid-based drag-and-drop editor that gives you full creative control over your layout. Place any element (text, images, buttons, forms) exactly where you want on the page. Drag it, resize it, layer it. Smart alignment guides keep everything polished, but the design is entirely yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the control goes well beyond layout. Choose independent colors for any component. Select different fonts for each heading type and paragraph. Crop images directly on the canvas. Fine-tune borders and corner rounding. You have full control to customize your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start from a professionally designed template, bring in ready-made sections and blocks, or build from scratch. Use the AI assistant to generate copy, pull from the built-in image gallery, and let automatic mobile optimization handle the rest. Whether you spend twenty minutes or two hours customizing, the result is a site that looks like it was built specifically for your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>A complete ecommerce platform, built right in<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A professional website is a great starting point. But if your goal is to sell online, you shouldn’t need a separate platform to make it happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SiteGround Ecommerce<\/a> lets you run a full online store from the same place you design your site. Go from zero to selling in hours, not weeks. No plugins, no third-party integrations, no separate systems to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start with a store template designed to showcase and sell your products effectively, then customize it to match your brand. From there, you have everything you need to get selling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
