So, what is Showit exactly?
Showit is a drag-and-drop website builder that gives you complete creative control over your website design - without a single line of code (unless you want it).
In Showit, you can:
✅ Move any element exactly where you want it
✅ Add custom fonts and animations
✅ Design your desktop and mobile layouts separately
✅ Integrate Showit seamlessly with WordPress for blogging
Think of it as the Canva of website builders - only faster, more powerful, and built for long-term business success.
6 Reasons why creatives love Showit
(and why you probably will too)
6 Reasons why creatives love Showit
(and why you probably will too)
01. True drag-and-drop freedom
Most website builders say they’re customizable, but the reality is… you’re usually stuck dragging around the same pre-set “content blocks” that never quite fit your vision. You know the ones - you want your headline just a smidge to the left? Too bad. You’d like that image to overlap your text for a cool, editorial feel? Not happening. 😣
With Showit, you’re not playing Tetris with your own website. You can put anything, anywhere - exactly how you imagine it. Overlap elements, layer shapes, adjust spacing down to the pixel, and experiment with layouts that most platforms wouldn’t even let you dream of.
Showit gives you true design freedom. No compromises. No “close enough”. Just the site you actually wanted to make. 🥰
And here’s the best part: you don’t need to know a single line of code to make it happen. But, if you do want to flex your coding muscles, there’s room for that too! Showit lets you sprinkle in custom HTML, CSS and JavaScript for those advanced tweaks that make your site feel even more “yours.”
02. Built-in Showit SEO tools
Worried about whether Google will even notice your shiny new website? Don’t be - Showit is built with SEO in mind and offers strong SEO capabilities comparable to other leading platforms. 🔍
Here’s what you can add in Showit's SEO tools:
✅ Page titles & meta descriptions - so you can tell Google exactly what each page is about. No more boring, auto-generated titles that read like robot gibberish.
✅ Alt text for your images - which is a must if you want your photos to show up in Google Image Search. (If you’re a photographer, this is pure gold - and if you’re not, it’s still gold)
✅ The ability to edit your header tags (H1, H2, H3) – this is huge for SEO. Your headers tell Google the “chapter titles” of your page, helping it understand your content. With Showit, you can choose which text is an H1 (your main title), which parts are H2s (your headings), and so on. This makes your site more readable for both visitors and search engines.
03. Mobile optimization done right
Unlike many website builders that just squish your desktop design onto a small screen, Showit lets you design the mobile version separately from the desktop version. That means you can move, resize, or even hide elements for mobile without affecting the desktop view.
With around 65% of all web traffic coming from mobile devices, this isn’t just a nice extra - it’s essential. Your visitors get the best possible experience, no matter what device they’re using.
04. Showit integrates with WordPress for blogging
Here’s how it works:
- Design your blog layout in Showit
You have full creative control over how your blog looks. Fonts, colors, image placement… all totally customizable, so your blog blends seamlessly with the rest of your site. - Write your blog posts in WordPress
You get to use WordPress’s powerful blogging tools and SEO plugins without touching the design. - Your WordPress blog content is flawlessly matched to your Showit site
Showit takes your WordPress blog content and slips it right into the beautiful design you created - like it was meant to be there all along.
The result? A stunning, strategic blog that’s as easy to update as any WordPress site, but looks nothing like a generic WordPress theme.

05. Website hosting is included with Showit
Let’s talk about one of the least glamorous parts of having a website – hosting. If you’ve ever tried to set up hosting on your own, you know it can feel like you’ve accidentally signed up for an IT degree. Comparing plans, figuring out bandwidth, security, uptime… It’s enough to make you want to yeet your laptop straight out the nearest window. 🥴
With Showit, you can skip all of that. Hosting is already included in your Showit subscription. That means your website lives on fast, secure servers without you lifting a finger. You don’t have to go hunting for a separate hosting provider, juggle multiple logins, or worry about things like SSL certificates or server downtime – Showit handles it all behind the scenes.
