Creating a beautiful, functional website doesn’t have to be intimidating. Sitely makes the process simple, and it’ll feel familiar if you’ve ever used a page-layout app. You’ll be establishing your online space in no time – no coding required!

What we love: How accessible Sitely makes building a website. Start with one of the dozens of site templates or opt for the AI-powered website generator, which can construct a custom website based on a few prompts. Add text, images and design flourishes – you can even include e-commerce and appointment-scheduling features. When you’re ready to go live, publish directly to your web-hosting service or save to your Mac to create a local website for testing.

Quick tip: Instead of creating an empty gallery and adding images and videos one by one, drag and drop all your media files into Sitely at once. The app will prompt you to create either a slideshow gallery or an immersive grid – the latter fades the web page when a thumbnail is clicked so your site’s visitors can focus on your media. In either case, you can customise the display with everything from animation effects to automated background replacements.
