What is the best website builder for musicians?

It depends on what the site has to do. Bandzoogle is the music-specific builder for selling from your own site, Squarespace and Wix give the most design freedom, Bandcamp is the store page for selling your music, and Loud is the one that builds the site for you.

We make Loud, so it goes last and we say where it loses. Every price below comes from each tool's own page, linked, and was checked November 6, 2026. Prices change and some pages show them in your local currency, so confirm on the page before you pay.

Which builders are made for musicians?

Bandzoogle

Bandzoogle is a website builder made for musicians. Its pricing page lists three website plans: Lite at US$9.16 a month billed yearly (US$11 monthly), Standard at US$14.16 (US$17) and Pro at US$18.33 (US$22). Lite has 10 pages, 10 tracks and 100 mailing list subscribers, Standard has 20 pages, 50 tracks and 1,000 subscribers, and Pro is unlimited. Every website plan includes a free custom domain, and there is a 14 day free trial. Its merch plans state 0% commission.

Where it fits: you want a store on your own site, your own player and room for a blog or lyrics. The cost is time, because you build and update every page yourself. We go deeper in Loud vs Bandzoogle.

Which general website builders can a musician use?

Squarespace

Squarespace is known for polished templates. Its pricing starts with Basic at US$19 a month billed yearly (US$25 monthly), and the pricing page says every site starts with a 14 day free trial and that annual plans include a year of free domain registration. If you plan to sell from it, check the fees for your plan on the same page.

Where it fits: you care about how the site looks and want a blog, a store or a portfolio in one place. It has no music tools that we could verify on its pricing page, so your releases are yours to add and update.

Wix

Wix has a free plan with no credit card, which makes it the cheapest way to try a builder. Paid plans start with Light at US$17.77 a month, with prices shown for yearly subscriptions paid up front. Connecting your own domain needs a paid plan, and there is a 14 day money-back guarantee on the first upgrade rather than a free trial.

Where it fits: a first draft at no cost, or a site that needs apps and layouts a music tool won't offer. The free plan gives you a Wix address, so plan to upgrade before you share it.

Where can I sell my music with a store page?

Bandcamp

Bandcamp is a place to sell, with a page per artist. According to its help center, it takes 15% of digital sales (10% once you reach US$5,000 in sales) and 10% of merch, plus payment processor fees. On its artists page, accounts are free and Bandcamp Pro is US$10 a month, with the custom domain listed as a Pro feature.

Where it fits: fans who buy downloads, vinyl and shirts. It is a store page and a place to be found by people who buy music, with less room to design a full site. Many artists keep it next to a website, and a link to your store works well on a link in bio.

Which option builds the site for me?

Loud

You search one of your songs or your name at stayloud.co, and Loud builds your website and link in bio with all your music. Both stay up to date with every release, and the sign-up on your site builds your fan list by city. Pro is US$5 a month (US$48 a year) with your own domain and every design in your colors and font. Tour is US$15 a month (US$144 a year) and adds 5,000 emails a month to your fans and a team of up to 3. Both start with 14 days free when you subscribe.

Where Loud loses:

  • It doesn't sell music, merch or tickets. The Tickets button goes to your ticket seller.
  • It has no blog and no free pages of your own, only a set of sections plus a page per release.
  • It has less layout freedom than Squarespace or Wix.
  • New accounts have no free plan, only the 14 day trial.
  • It's a new product, and Bandzoogle has been around much longer.

Where it fits: you release music, want a website and a link in bio, and don't want to build or maintain either. See how to make a music website in two minutes.

How do I choose a website builder as a musician?

  • You sell merch and downloads: Bandcamp for the store, or Bandzoogle if you want the store inside your own site.
  • You want to design every page yourself: Squarespace or Wix.
  • You want to try before paying: Wix's free plan, or the 14 day trials at Bandzoogle, Squarespace and Loud.
  • You release often and have no time for the site: Loud.
  • You want your own domain: all of them can, and the details are in how to use a custom domain.
  • You want to write to your fans: Bandzoogle has a built-in mailing list, Loud has a fan list by city and emails on Tour. Start with building an email list.

FAQ

Is there a free website builder for musicians?

Wix has a free plan. Bandzoogle, Squarespace and Loud offer trials instead of a free plan, and Bandcamp is free to join and takes a share of what you sell.

Which builder is cheapest for a musician?

Per the pages above on November 6, 2026, Bandzoogle Lite (US$9.16 a month billed yearly) is the lowest music-specific website plan, and Loud Pro is US$5 a month. They do different jobs, so compare what each includes.

Can I use more than one?

Yes. A common setup is a website or link in bio you share everywhere, with a link to your Bandcamp store.

Do I need my own domain?

Not to start. It looks more professional and stays yours if you change tools.

Your website and link in bio, built from your music.

You make the music. Loud builds both from your songs, keeps them up to date with every release, and gathers your fans so you can write to them directly.
