They sell anyone-can. We sell you-don’t-have-to.
WebStarts hands you a canvas.
We hand you a company site.
Zero dollars still costs your Sunday. WebSmart Site is $99 + $29/mo because the labor is ours, not yours.
WebStarts sits in the DIY website-builder lane: you assemble and adjust the site yourself. WebSmart sits in the done-for-you managed lane: we produce the first full site from your brief, launch it on your domain, and hand you /admin for page and photo changes. Both can put a business on the web. They spend your week differently.
The split in one line
WebStarts: builder-led, you drive the design work. WebSmart: service-led — AI designs and writes, you preview, you go live, AI tends the pages, two revisions a month, extra billed.
When WebStarts may be enough
- You want hands-on control inside a builder
- You are willing to structure pages, write copy, and tune layout yourself
- You treat the website as a project you will keep learning
- You like deciding fonts, sections, and mobile breakpoints directly
That path rewards owners who enjoy the craft and have the hours.
When WebSmart is the better match
- You need a finished small-business storefront without becoming the evening maintainer of your own site
- You want hosting, SSL, CDN, custom domain connection, and mailbox path inside a managed website scope
- You want to sign in on your own website at /admin for everyday edits
- You want named revision limits instead of an endless unfinished draft
- You want plan prices in the open: Site $99+$29/mo, Business $249+$49/mo, Store $399+$79/mo, no free plan
Process difference
WebSmart runs: brief → AI designs/writes → preview → live on your domain → /admin for pages and photos.
A DIY builder runs: you open the canvas → you decide structure → you keep deciding until you stop or ship.
On WebSmart, photographed images you supply are placed in the HTML build; you still own the facts. On DIY, you place everything yourself, including the parts that stall launches (forms, domain email, mobile tap targets).

We do not invent WebStarts package names or dollar figures here. Check their current DIY pricing directly if you are still comparing builders.
Editing and after-launch
Everyday truth updates (hours, photos, small copy) happen when you sign in on your own website at /admin. Broader request passes use two revisions a month. Extra revision work is billed before it starts. AI tends the pages between your asks so the storefront does not sit untouched until something breaks.
Bottom line
If you want to build, a builder like WebStarts can be the tool. If you want it built — then lightly managed with clear prices and /admin on your domain — use WebSmart. Web Smart dot C C — websmart.cc — (347) 625-8553
