Why I use Create.net

I actually tried a different ecommerce platform before finding Create.net, it was useless, and I got a refund almost immediately.

Create.net had everything I needed to set up my first ever online store, my fashion boutique, and made it genuinely easy, no coding skills needed at all.

There are loads of templates to choose from, so even as a complete beginner I could put together something that looked professional straight away. They're also always evolving, adding new features and improvements over the years rather than standing still.

One thing I really rate is the community around it too, there's a Facebook group where you can chat to other Create store owners, share tips, and even get input from staff members directly.

Before that, I'd sold items on Facebook and Etsy, but Facebook kept changing its algorithm in ways that hurt my sales, and I knew I needed my own website if I wanted to keep going.

A lot's changed since then. I've grown into a full-time online publisher, which isn't really what Create.net is built for these days, it's much more geared towards ecommerce stores.

They have redone the blogging side with a new editor since I set mine up, though I haven't used it myself, so I can't say how much that's changed things for bloggers starting out today. But I know it has loads of great features that would be really useful for better SEO and making content look even more amazing.

As my own site is so established now, moving it isn't really an option, and I've managed to build a really good-looking site with it regardless.

As an ecommerce platform, I genuinely rate Create.net, and for beginners, hobbyists, or anyone running a small self-employed shop, I think it's a great choice.

What you get with Create.net

• Fully customisable themes. There are loads of responsive templates to choose from, so you can pick one that suits your brand and tweak the fonts and colours to match. I've stuck with a minimal, clean white look for mine, and integrated my brand logo colour as well as a couple of accent colours which you'll spot throughout my website.
• A proper stock management system. Stock control, sales reports, everything you need is built into the dashboard.
• Genuinely helpful support. I've had a handful of account managers over the years, and every one has been patient and useful, even with the most basic questions.
• No technical experience needed. You don't need to know any code to build or run a site with Create.net.
• A free trial, so you can try it out before committing to anything.
• Their own refer-a-friend scheme. Give other people 10% off when they set up a shop, and you get £10 off your next payment for each one.

Domains and pricing

I now own six domains through Create.net, a mix of .com and .co.uk, plus a few variations with hyphens, just in case someone misspells my site name or tries to register something too close to it.

They typically cost between £10 and £15 a year each, usually billed every two years.

For the website builder itself, I'm on a historic plan, however, Create.net's current plans are:

• Portfolio – from £8.49/mo (billed annually) or £9.99/mo (billed monthly)
• Professional – from £16.99/mo (billed annually) or £19.99/mo (billed monthly), their most popular plan
• Business – from £33.99/mo (billed annually) or £39.99/mo (billed monthly)
• Tailored – from £69.99/mo, for larger stores needing custom limits and integrations

The prices were correct at the time of writing but may change, so you can see the full pricing breakdown for what's included in each.
