A website is identified by its URL The domain name is part of this URL. It is composed of:

• The top level domain or extension that may be related to a country, in this case it is composed of 2 letters (for example .fr for France, .es for spain or .de for germany), or it can be related to an activity, in this case it is composed of 3 letters (for example .biz for business, .net for computer sites or networks, etc.).

• The second level domain which contains between 3 and 63 characters.

• Possibly a subdomain which you can find in the beginning of the domain name. It gives precisions about the domain. The subdomain www (world wide web) is often used to define the main website.

For example, for the domain name www.sitew.com, the extension is .com, the second level domain is sitew and www is the subdomain.
A domain name allows to get the ip address of a website, which is a series of numbers allowing to identify the server which hosts the website.
The use of letters allows to facilitate the memorization of the web addresses.

This makes the website creation tool very easy to use.

Sur SiteW vous êtes totalement libre du placement de vos modules. Ceux ci peuvent par exemple se superposer (Pour mettre du texte sur une image) ou être placé à des emplacements totalement arbitraire (sur le coté avec une taille étroite, au centre de la page, etc...).

La ou sur Jimdo vous êtes donc contraint dans la personnalisation de votre site, sur SiteW vous pouvez personnaliser totalement votre site. Les modèles de sites proposés à la création de votre site sont totalement personnalisables et sont tous créés à partir de la meme base.

Les utilisateurs de notre service sont très satisfaits : ils nous ont donné une note moyenne de 9.4/10 sur un site indépendant  (https://fr.trustpilot.com/review/sitew.com) contre 9.1/10 pour les utilisateurs de Jimdo (https://www.trustpilot.com/review/fr.jimdo.com?languages=all).

Prestashop est une solution de boutique en ligne installable destinée aux personnes ayant des compétences en développement et administration web. Il ne s'agit pas en soit d'une solution incluant l'hébergement, bien que cela soit proposé par certains prestataires. Vous (ou votre prestataire si il propose cette option) devez gérer les mises à jours (de sécurités et de fonctionnalités) et la maintenance des serveurs. Du fait de ces contraintes, cette solution est souvent proposée par des agences Web - ce qui rends la mise en place d'une solution de ce type onéreuse.

SiteW est de son coté une solution simple destinée aux personnes sans connaissances technique. La solution inclue l'hébergement, 3 noms de domaines, la maintenance, les mises à jour de sécurités, l'ajout de fonctionnalités régulières sans intervention de votre part, tout cela à un prix attractif - tout compris.

Wordpress est une solution de blog/site installable destinée aux personnes ayant des compétences en développement et administration web. Il ne s'agit pas en soit d'une solution incluant l'hébergement, bien que cela soit proposé par certains prestataires. Vous (ou votre prestataire s'il propose cette option) devez gérer les mises à jours (de sécurité et de fonctionnalités) et la maintenance des serveurs. Du fait de ces contraintes, cette solution est souvent proposée par des agences Web - ce qui rends la mise en place d'une solution de ce type onéreuse.

SiteW est de son coté une solution simple destinée aux personnes sans connaissances techniques. La solution inclue l'hébergement, 1 nom de domaine, la maintenance, les mises à jour de sécurités, l'ajout de fonctionnalités régulières sans intervention de votre part, tout cela à un prix attractif - tout compris.

Le design des sites wordpress est basé sur des templates et des pages formatées alors que les pages et le design de votre site SiteW est totalement personnalisable.

Wordpress propose une multitude de fonctionnalités et plugins rendant l'installation, la configuration et les mises en jours plus difficiles et plus longues. SiteW propose toutes les fonctionnalités essentielles d'un site /blog vous permettant de proposer rapidement et facilement un site de présentation ou un blog : Fonctionnalités.
