Carrd has a free Basic experience, a 7-day Pro trial with no credit card needed, and paid plans at $9 a year (Pro Lite), $19 a year (Pro Standard, with custom domains, forms, and widgets), and $49 a year (Pro Plus, with HTML/CSS/JS download).
Heya is our no-code builder for one-page and small sites. Start without an account, edit on your phone, and use 68 templates and 10 block types. Free is $0 for up to 3 sites, and Pro plans cost $3, $6, or $15 a month.
Linktree focuses on link lists and creator monetization. The Free plan gives you unlimited basic links plus email and phone sign-ups, while paid plans billed annually cost $7 per month (Starter), $14 per month (Pro), and $30 per month (Premium).
Google Sites lets you build websites with no programming, using drag-and-drop tools, pre-made templates, and an automatic grid layout. It ties into Google Workspace with Google Docs-style sharing permissions, and supports up to five custom domains per site via a subdomain like www.
Framer offers a $0 Free plan for non-commercial sites, plus paid custom-domain plans at $10 per month billed yearly (Basic) and $30 per month (Pro). It supports team editing, though sites rely on Framer's backend and can't be exported as standalone HTML.
When you look up Carrd examples, you're usually planning one of five single-page formats. You might want a personal bio page with a photo, a two-sentence summary, social icons, and a contact button, or a link-in-bio list stacking articles, videos, and booking links. The other three common setups are a one-page portfolio with work samples, skills, and hiring info, a service or product landing page explaining a single offer and its price, and an event or launch waitlist with a headline, release date or countdown timer, and call to action.
Just so you know, the visual examples at the top of this page are templates from our library of 68 Heya templates, not Carrd sites. We show them here to illustrate how clean one-page layouts are put together.
Most people opening your bio, link list, or portfolio from social media are on a phone. Put your name, what you do, and your main call-to-action button near the top so they get it without scrolling, and write specific labels like Book a consultation call or View wedding packages instead of Click here.
It also helps to group things into separate blocks: prominent buttons for your top two or three actions, a compact links list for secondary pages, and icon-only social links at the bottom. On our builder, a buttons block holds up to 6 buttons, a links block holds up to 50 links, and a socials block connects to 29 networks plus email, phone, and website, plus there's a countdown block for launches.
A one-page site loses focus when you cram unrelated projects onto one URL. Build separate sites for separate audiences instead: Carrd Pro Lite and Heya Free both allow up to 3 sites, while Carrd Pro Standard allows 10 and Heya Pro Standard allows 5. Watch out for heavy media slowing down phones too (we automatically resize images to 2048 pixels on the long edge and convert them to WebP up to 20 MB, while Carrd Pro supports 16MB images and 64MB videos), and always set your page title, description, tab icon, and social share image.
Finally, match the builder to what your page actually needs. On Heya, you can link a button to a Google Form, Tally form, or your checkout page, and embed a Calendly scheduling page.
