Compared with Google Sites
A business website, built and run from your phone.
SiteSpin builds your website with bookings, payments, a shop and an inbox. Change it by asking from your phone. Google Sites leaves you to write the pages and connect the tools.

Tell SiteSpin what you do, by text or voice. It asks a few questions and builds your website in minutes, with bookings, a shop, payments, messages and a blog ready together. Run it from your phone.

Google Sites has a simple editor for information pages. You choose a template, write each page and arrange bookings and messages with other Google tools. To change the website, you need a computer.

Run the business from your phone.
For example, a barber sees the day's bookings, replies to a client's message as the business, then asks, “Close for the day on Friday.” SiteSpin changes the booking hours from the same conversation.

Tell SiteSpin about the business
For example, a barber might say, “I cut hair and sell hair products. I need people to book.” SiteSpin asks about the business, plans the barber website and writes the words. You choose from three designs. Send photos from your phone, and SiteSpin decides where they belong.
SiteSpin can also bring content across from an existing website. With Google Sites, you choose Google’s templates and themes, write each page and arrange the business tools yourself.
Take bookings, sell products and answer messages
SiteSpin sets up services, availability and reminders. Clients choose an open time and can move or cancel within your rules. The shop can show products with photos, sizes, options and delivery. Customers pay for bookings and orders through your Stripe account. SiteSpin adds no transaction fee; card fees apply.
Bookings, orders and messages arrive in the same app on iPhone and iPad. You can open the same account in your browser. Reply as your business, and the customer’s answer stays in the same conversation. Tell SiteSpin your news and it becomes a blog post with a photo.
On Google Sites, bookings come from a separate Google Calendar page. A personal account has a single booking page; reminders and paid bookings need a paid subscription. Contact form responses stay in Google Forms or a linked spreadsheet. Selling products means arranging a separate shop.
Change the website between appointments
Tell SiteSpin, “Change Friday’s opening hours,” or “Add this hair product.” It makes the change everywhere it belongs. A new look is shown before and after, and earlier versions are kept. Changes by chat are included.
SiteSpin handles hosting. Spam protection and a privacy notice are handled too. Your pages set out what you offer, where you are and when you’re open, so search engines and AI assistants can read them. In the app, see which visits led to bookings, orders and messages, without analytics cookies.
With Google Sites, buying and connecting the domain and connecting Google Analytics are jobs you handle.
What it costs to build and run
SiteSpin does the building, sets up the business tools and makes later changes when you ask. With Google Sites, you build the pages and arrange the domain, booking tools and shop separately. Our Google Sites cost guide covers what you need to arrange.
If you hire a freelancer to build a small business website, WebsiteSetup gives a general range of $2,000 to $7,600 before tools. Budget for the full cost of a small business website, including tools and later changes.
SiteSpin is $28 a month, with the website built for you and everything above included. You also get a custom domain, renewed for you automatically. New to SiteSpin? Your first 7 days are free, and nothing is charged until they end. Start by telling SiteSpin what you do.
