If you’re on the hunt for a standout and dynamic website, Showit is definitely one of the top website builders out there. But whatโs the real cost of a Showit website, which package is right for you, and what do you need beyond a Showit subscription?
This blog will guide you through the expenses involved in creating your own Showit website. Curious? Keep reading!
What’s included in all Showit subscriptions
At first glance, Showit’s pricing might appear a bit high compared to other website builders. But there’s more to it than meets the eye. Each Showit subscription includes features that other website builders typically charge extra for. With Showit, you get:
๐จ Drag & drop editor
Each Showit subscription offers access to their drag & drop website builder. This means you can easily shift elements around, similar to using Canva but for building your website!
โ Website hosting
Many website builders, like WordPress, require you to get and set up your own website hosting, which can be a real pain in the ass. Plus, picking the right hosting is important to avoid issues like slow loading times and frequent downtime.
With Showit, website hosting is part of the package, ensuring your site runs smoothly and stays online!
๐ Website security (HTTPS)
All Showit packages come with website security. You can recognize this by HTTPS in your website’s URL or a green/closed padlock. This is crucial because, without it, your visitors might come across an error message like the one below:
Plus, having a secure site can give you a little nudge up in Google rankings!
๐ฌ Customer support
You’ll find customer support like no other with Showit! Within the Showit builder, you can chat live with the support team anytime – even during late nights and weekends. They’re super quick to respond and truly listen to your needs.
Plus, Showit also provides 7/7 emergency assistance for any urgent issues.
Showit pricing: the 3 different Showit plans
Showit offers three subscription plans, which you can pay monthly or annually (annual payments save you $60/year):
- Showit plan
- Showit & Basic Starter Blog
- Showit & Advanced Blog
Showit plan (no blog)
This is the most budget-friendly option from Showit, perfect for anyone interested in having a website without a blog. It’s a great starting point for beginners, with the flexibility to upgrade to a blog-included package down the road.
The Showit plan includes:
- Website security (HTTPS)
- Website hosting
- 20GB of media storage
- Backups every 10 minutes
๐ธ The Showit plan costs $19/month annually, or $24/month on a monthly basis.
Showit + Basic Starter Blog
If youโre thinking about blogging on your site, the Showit + Basic Starter Blog package is pretty much always my go-to suggestion. This plan sets you up with both a Showit account and a blog. The blog runs on WordPress and integrates seamlessly with your Showit site.
With this plan, you’ll also get several pre-installed WordPress plugins, like Yoast SEO to boost the visibility of your blog posts on Google.
The Showit + Basic Starter Blog plan includes everything in the Showit plan, plus:
- A WordPress blog account
- Support for your blog
- Pre-installed WordPress plugins (you can’t install additional plugins)
- 20GB blog storage
๐ธ The Showit + Basic Starter Blog plan costs $24/month annually, or $29/month on a monthly basis.
Showit + Advanced Blog
The priciest Showit plan caters to those seeking a Showit website with a blog and complete access to all WordPress plugins. This package is perfect for those with ambitious website goals, allowing the use of plugins like WooCommerce. You can also migrate blogs from your existing WordPress or Squarespace website using this subscription tier.
Most of my clients find the Showit + Basic Starter Blog plan meets their needs, but it’s great to have this option if you need it.
This plan includes everything in the Showit + Basic Starter Blog plan, plus:
- Access to all WordPress plugins
- Free blog migration from WordPress or Squarespace
๐ธ The Showit + Advanced Blog package costs $34/month annually, or $39/month on a monthly basis.

What do I need besides a Showit subscription?
