Solo

What Solo is

A free website builder aimed at people who have never shipped a site. You answer a few questions about the business, and it produces a complete site, pulling in reviews, contact details and imagery as it goes.

The result is editable, works on mobile, and can be published on a custom domain at no extra cost.

What you can do with it

• Generate a full site from a few business details
• Import reviews to show social proof
• Add a booking form so clients can schedule directly
• Use the client contact form and analytics that come with the site
• Invite other people to edit the site
• Point your own domain at the finished pages

Who it is for

• Independent trades and service professionals
• Small local businesses without a web person
• Solo founders testing a first landing page
• Anyone who has found traditional builders intimidating

What to watch out for

• Generated copy and layout need a proofread before the site goes live
• The free domain connection does not include the domain itself; that is bought separately
• Complex sites such as shops with large catalogs are outside its scope
• Analytics are basic compared with a dedicated analytics setup
