What is the best free website builder for beginners?

Self-hosted WordPress is one of the strongest free options since the core software costs nothing, and thousands of free themes and plugins let you build a fully functional site without paying for software. You will still need hosting, though budget-friendly plans start around $3 to $10 a month. If you want a completely free, all-in-one hosted option with no separate hosting purchase, WordPress.com’s free plan or builders like Wix and Weebly offer basic free tiers, though with more limitations on design, storage, and custom domains. For beginners who want long-term flexibility and are willing to pick affordable hosting, self-hosted WordPress usually offers the best balance of low cost and real capability.
