About 8 years ago, I decided I wanted to have a gaming website. I new nothing about what was needed to actually build a website, so I just decided I would use a free website builder, sort of like "Weebly". I tried to build a MMORPG text-based game with a website builder, and little did I know that this certain website builder didn't allow for code, and I knew nothing on programming languages. So the game turned out to be the worst MMORPG probably on the internet, and no one even played it. This was my first experience of website builder applications, and probably my last.
Have you ever decided to use a website builder? Did you have great success with it? Which website builder have you used?

Have you ever wanted to create your own website with your own code? Creating websites with my own code is one of my hobbies. I spend hours upon hours tweaking, or creating code. I have been creating websites since I was about 15-16, and during this time is when I learned to code PHP.
Maybe you should at least try and code something? It's a skill you can develop and probably at some point in the future you could monetize it - just like I do. But I understand it's like looking at gibberish, but you'll eventually get use to it if you decide to start. I believe everyone should learn to code. :)

I prefer building a website myself, but website builders would prolly give me better results :P.

Well, I use wordpress themes a lot and I guess that could be considered a website builder since I didn't do it myself
I've used website builders in the past and I was never satisfied because they always looked horrible compared to my competition who probably paid thousands for their designs. I wanted something to be on the same level as them and that's why I usually go for wordpress premium themes that fit my niche.
I have paid designers to build my websites in the past and sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't. Web design isn't where I'm normally limited, it's usually the programming on the back end that I need to outsource since the programming for each website could be extremely different. Specific features you want may have to be custom coded. And even if there is a script out there that does what you want, if you don't know how to apply it, you'll have to pay someone to do it
So in the end I'd say that I prefer to purchase wordpress themes that have a builder built into it in case I want to edit anything. And I do like doing my own websites, but I don't have the programming knowledge in order to do the custom features I'd like to do, so I pay someone with the skills to do it
Thanks,
Razzy I don't use website builders or custom code :D Well, I use wordpress themes a lot and I guess that could be considered a website builder since I didn't do it myself :D Some of my themes have pretty extensive back ends and I can actually edit anything I want with the look of the site from the builder within the theme.
