Number one ALL IN ONE website builder for Creative Business Owners.

I have tried out so many website builders over the years and did not have the same ease of setup or all in one setup like Podia has. I have everything I need to run a successful digital business with Podia!

Pros

The easy setup and all in one services allowed me to set up my business in a week and make several sales in my first month of launching. I'm really pleased with how I could set up my entire business including email marketing and an affiliate program!

Cons

I honestly have no complaints right now. I wish Merch could be listed but I'm very satisfied with the design capability and features.

Reasons for Choosing Podia

I was tired of using multiple services and lots of monthly expenses. I used Podia in the past for a project and made a few clients Podia websites. But in 2023 it's the BEST I've found for all in one service for your creative business.

Switched From

Kit, EtsyMarketingTool, Weebly and Shopify

Reasons for Switching to Podia

I loved the Podia blog article about KAJABI V.S. PODIA. I knew I wanted to use podia, not because of price difference but my user experience when I signed up for both. I love the navigation, ease of use, and tools Podia has for creating a website + full business. I get so many compliments and I'm shocked I was "in business" within a week of signing up.

The easiest online course platform out there

Podia is a really great company. I love their software, their tone of voice, they're super quick to give assistance when needed and I have never had such a seamless experience building a course!

Pros

The design looks nice and modern, and the UX is so intuitive. It literally takes you less than an hour to launch your first course, and that's unheard of for other platforms.

Cons

I would like a little bit more options to use my own branding, but Podia's design is so nice and neutral, it's not bugging me.

Great for large scale and established sales options

Pros

Fairly easy to use and set up as a content creator.

Cons

For small scale business (like mine) with infrequent use, Podia is a bit more expensive than some other options.

Disappointed

Pros

easy visual to look at as a customer and navigate

Cons

I have had customers complain to me because when they click my products (coaching sessions specifically), they are being required to enter their email address and "sign up" before even being able to view my calendar availability. This feature should be optional for products. I am finding that podia is not as "user friendly" as I was led to believe. Also, the staff work from 9-5 but more often than not they are unavailable and I'm met with an automated response to send an email. Again, not very convenient for paying customers such as myself.

The Best Website Builder I've Ever Used

Pros

I cannot say enough good things about Podia - It's so easy to use, their tutorials are SO good, their customer service is amazing, their website/email marketing/blogging features are incredible, and my website has never looked better.

Cons

I wish there were a way to customize automated certificates within Podia. Unfortunately I had to pay for a third party service to get my needs met, which is frustrating.
