Q3) Big commerce was founded in 2009 in Australia by Eddie Machaalani and Mitchell Harper.

Q4)big commerce is a NA SDAQ listed e-commerce platform that provides software as a service aerviced to retailers. the company's platform includes online store creation, search engine optimization, hosting, and marketing and security from small to enterprise sized business.


Q5)BigCommerce is a leading ecommerce builder, providing extreme scalability for online stores. It has more built-in sales tools than any of its competitors, and combines these features with advanced SEO and fantastic multi-channel integration.

Q6)By making comparison to some of its competitors, you have to pay quite a lot to avail of abandoned cart functionality. Limits are placed on annual online sales — and if you exceed them, you’ll need to upgrade to a more expensive monthly plan. The free themes are in many cases too similar to each other.

Q7)Big commerce is a better online website to use as it is completely free and more user friendly. Once you load up into the Wordpress website it is very straight forward and is much better to use overall than Big Commerce.

3. Founded in 2006, up and running by 2007.

4. Weebly is an E-Commerce website for people looking to start and grow a business. It is also a great way for in person businesses to tap into a new market and add an online digital presence. Through Weebly you get access to a variety of tools to improve your time working in an online format with things such as inventory managers and shipment simplifiers. It also helps you tackle the manual hassles of running a successful online store by simplifying shipping, taxes, and inventory management.

5.
-It’s a great option for those who want to create a professional website or online store quickly and without a steep learning curve thanks to its drag-and-drop editor.
-Weebly is a beginner-friendly website builder that allows users to easily create a website without any coding knowledge.
-Weebly is a good website builder for those who are looking for an easy-to-use platform with drag-and-drop features.

6. Limitations of weebly: 1.)Weebly offers a limited number of templates and design options. This can be limiting if you want to create a unique website. If you want more control over the design of your website, you may want to consider another platform. 2.)Weebly sites are not always search engine friendly. This means that your website may not rank as high in search engine results as you would like. If you want your website to be easily found by potential customers, you may want to consider another platform. 3.) Weebly can be slow, especially if you have a lot of content or images on your website. This can make it difficult for visitors to view your website properly. If speed is important to you, you may want to consider another platform.

7. Weebly is the more beginner-friendly and easy-to-use platform. It takes only minutes to get started, uses a simple drag-and-drop editor, and even guides you through the building process. WordPress demands more from its users – from hosting to building, it needs a lot more work.

7-Shopify is better, because is a dedicated ecommerce platform that helps you build your own online store. It hosts your site for you, and gives you all the tools you need. In contrast, WordPress is an open-source platform. You need to host your own site, and install plugins like WooCommerce for ecommerce tools.]]> 2022-11-10 22:45:58 UTC https://padlet.com/tranv1/3x8c47djb1liok5t/wish/2379369179 WordPress call0145 https://padlet.com/tranv1/3x8c47djb1liok5t/wish/2379373217 Writters:

3.  GoDaddy was founded in 1997.

4. GoDaddy is a American service platform for entrepreneurs around the world. This platform provides you with everything you need to start a small business website. This company is most known through television and newspapers.

5. GoDaddy offers domain, email, and shared hosting services, it is best known as the largest domain registrar in the market. It offers options for virtual and dedicated servers as well. However, it is just as big in the web hosting market, offering a wide variety of services, including shared, WordPress, VPS, and even dedicated hosting.

6. Limitations of Godaddy: Free plans don’t include critical features, it has an inconsistent Customer service; so for the best value you have to sign up and pay for a long time because plans for a few months are more expensive than signing up for a longer period of time.
 
7. WordPress, the most popular content management system(CMS) in the world, provides an easy-to-use platform for managing your content and building a website with zero coding knowledge. 

On the other hand, GoDaddy, the world’s largest domain registrar, differs from WP by providing true web hosting and a simple site builder.

Wordpress is better and easier to use: Once the platform is successfully set up, site owners can begin browsing the theme marketplace, previewing site content before publishing to the web. Find the perfect theme, incorporate any plugins you'd like to extend your site's functionality, and begin drafting your first post! Whether you're building a blog or an online store — hosting on a shared server or your very own VPS — you can have a new WordPress site online in less than an hour.

3) wix was founded on October 5, 2006.

4) Wix is a free, user-friendly, website building platform. It allows users to create HTML5 websites and mobile sites through the use of online drag and drop tools. It also is a publicly trading app for around the world with well-established legal, privacy, payment, and product standards.

5) ii)Great online store offering – Wix has a great selection of ecommerce tools that make it a top choice if you’re looking to open an online store
iii)Tons of flexibility and creative freedom, meaning you can easily customize your template so it looks exactly how you want it

6 i)Lack of deep analytics. While the Wix dashboard does provide some basic analytics and traffic tracking, it doesn't dive in too deep 
  Page loads slowly. This is a significant disadvantage.

7) Between "wix" and "wordpress," wix is easier to use because it is more simple and straightforward; however, wix has limitations, such as the fact that it can take your website down if you don't follow its rules or how once you pick a template, you can't change it in the future and are stuck with it. Wordpress has a lot more features than Wix, and you can pretty much make any kind of website with it and have way more freedom than with Wix. The downsides to WordPress are also the fact that there is a fee to actually put your website up and how complex it can be, so go with Wix if you want the easier option. WordPress is the way to go if you want something long-term, as it's better in every way.

The web build at 1999 by Darin Brannan.

Web.com is an American company that provides web development services in Florida. Web.com had 3.3 million subscribers in 2016. And the following year, the company expanded, with 3,500 employees across the United States, Argentina, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

Web.com is famous for its ease of use, the intro option is cheap, and people can work on their own cell phones. 

The first is not free. The second is that there is no free trial service. Finally, the tools available are limited.

I will use WordPress. Because they are free and provide lots of tools.
