Keep in mind that the landscape may have changed since then, so it's a good idea to check the latest reviews and features. Here are some platforms that were considered user-friendly for creating webpages:
1. **Wix:**
- Wix is known for its drag-and-drop editor and a wide range of templates.
- It's suitable for both beginners and those with some web design experience.
2. **Weebly:**
- Weebly is another easy-to-use platform with a simple drag-and-drop interface.
- It offers various themes and e-commerce features for online stores.
3. **Squarespace:**
- Squarespace is known for its visually appealing templates and a clean design.
- It's a good choice for artists, photographers, and creative professionals.
4. **WordPress.com:**
- WordPress.com offers a user-friendly platform for creating websites without the need for hosting.
- It has a variety of themes and plugins, making it customizable.
5. **Shopify:**
- While Shopify is primarily an e-commerce platform, it's user-friendly for building online stores.
- It provides a range of templates and tools for selling products.
6. **Webflow:**
- Webflow is more advanced but still user-friendly, allowing for greater design control.
- It's suitable for both simple and complex websites.
7. **Elementor (WordPress Plugin):**
- If you're using WordPress, Elementor is a popular drag-and-drop page builder plugin.
- It provides a live editing experience and a variety of widgets.
Remember that the ease of use may vary depending on your specific needs and the complexity of the website you want to create. Additionally, new platforms may have emerged since my last update, so it's advisable to explore recent reviews and user feedback before making a decision.
Unfortunately my Team and I specialise in enterprise development, rather than web sites. The de facto standard for web page development is indeed Wordpress. The basic system is extensible via plugins, which allow every permissible function imaginable, from ecommerce to image processing to AI text generation.
If it can be of any help, my company website uses Wordpress and the Divi plugin.
Shopify is used a lot to build portals that offer a marketplace, with complex catalogues, cart management and e-payment options.
