Three Reasons for Artists to Switch
A. “Stop Paying the ‘Artist Tax'”
Most builders charge a premium because they know artists need a portfolio. We believe a professional presence shouldn’t cost as much as your art supplies. With our $1/mo Bronze Plan, you get a world-class WordPress site for less than a cup of coffee.
B. Digital Portability (Don’t Get Locked In)
When you build on Wix or Squarespace, you are “renting” your site. If you want to leave, you have to start from scratch. Artnbuff is built on WordPress. If you ever decide to move to your own hosting, you can take your entire site, design, and SEO history with you. You own your legacy.
C. Built for the Art Ecosystem
We aren’t a generic website builder for plumbers and lawyers. We are part of the Artnbuff Ecosystem. Your studio site integrates with our marketplace and community, giving you a built-in audience from day one.
Are you done paying for overpriced features you don’t use?
