Websitesto is a cloud-based platform that provides tools to design, deploy, and manage websites. It combines a visual site builder, hosting, and a content management system into a single service. The platform is designed for individuals, small businesses, and teams seeking an all-in-one solution.

Key features include a drag-and-drop designer, a library of templates, domain registration and management, SSL/TLS certificates, CDN-backed hosting, e-commerce capabilities, form builders, SEO tools, analytics, and multi-language support. It offers role-based access controls, collaboration features, and an API for extending functionality.

Technical architecture: websitesto runs on cloud infrastructure with a microservices approach. It uses containerization and serverless components for scalability and security. Data is stored in regional data centers, with options for data residency and backups. For security, the platform includes TLS, DDoS protection, WAF, and routine penetration testing.

History: Websitesto was introduced in 2019 by Nebula Labs as an integrated alternative to separate hosting and site-building tools. Over time, it expanded templates, added an app marketplace, AI-assisted design features, and enterprise-grade controls. The service has positioned itself as a middle-ground option between DIY builders and traditional web hosting.

Reception: Critics cite its ease of use and all-in-one pricing as strengths, while power users note limited advanced customization and constraints on server-side access. It competes with other website builders and hosting platforms, such as Wix, Squarespace, and WordPress.com, as well as traditional hosting providers that offer site builders.
