Overview

Tilda supports websites, stores, landing pages, blogs, online courses, portfolios, event sites, presentations and other custom projects. Hosting is included, and the 1,000-page ceiling leaves room for substantial publishing. Its strength is combining visual site creation with commerce and lead management, rather than focusing narrowly on a basic personal page.

Key features

Design, publishing and SEO

More than 550 customizable blocks and 210+ templates give projects a substantial set of starting points. Blocks adapt to different screen sizes through five versions, making responsive publishing part of the builder rather than a separate design task. Blogging and SEO controls cover headings, image alt text, titles, descriptions, keywords, clean URLs, robots.txt and sitemaps. These tools suit content-led sites, though a large block library is most useful when a project needs more than a simple brochure page.

AI, stores and lead management

Tilda AI can draft pages from prompts, generate copy and create custom interactive blocks. These capabilities can accelerate a first pass, while still leaving the site owner to shape the result. Store features include product cards, variants, catalogs, filtering, sorting, promo codes, carts and product statistics. Card payments, PayPal and Stripe support checkout; order confirmations and CRM integrations connect selling with follow-up.

The built-in CRM organizes leads by stage and includes contact history, analytics, email sending and teamwork features. Forms can connect to services including Google Sheets, Mailchimp, HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack, Notion, Zapier and webhooks. The range is useful for businesses already using these workflows, but API access is reserved for Business and capped at 150 requests per hour.

Hosting and security

Websites are hosted in the cloud, with DDoS protection from Cloudflare. Tilda says transferred data and databases use TLS 1.3 encryption and SSL certification with RSA 2048-bit keys. An SSL certificate for HTTPS can be enabled in the account. Its main servers are in Germany and Finland, using Hetzner and Amazon Web Services data centers; the company says it is developing compliance with GDPR and other data-protection standards.

Pricing

The Free plan costs $0.00 per free and permits one website with a collection of key blocks. It is a practical way to start a small project, but not a full substitute for paid access to the block library or a custom domain.

Personal costs $15.00 per month and covers one website, full block access and a custom domain. It fits a single-site business, creator or portfolio that needs the complete design toolkit. The one-site-per-account limit is a constraint for studios or owners managing several properties.

Business costs $25.00 per month and includes Personal features, five websites and source-code export as a static HTML package with required files. It is the relevant tier for multi-site operators, client-site studios and developers who need export. API access is also Business-only, with a limit of 150 requests per hour. Both paid plans are also shown at $15.00 per month for Personal and $25.00 per month for Business when billed monthly. The pricing note gives a paid starting price of $10/mo (annual), so the term and plan should be checked before budgeting from that starting figure. A 14-day trial is available.

If a subscription is not renewed, the website is unpublished while its data remains stored for six months. Data is permanently deleted if the subscription is not renewed within that period, so a lapse is not a permanent archive.

Platforms

Tilda runs on the web and offers an API. Hosting is included. The API is available only to Business subscribers, so it is not an option for Free or Personal users.

Who it's for

Tilda is a strong fit for small businesses that want a site and store in one system, creators who need publishing and portfolio tools, and teams that rely on forms and lead tracking. Its Business plan is aimed at companies managing multiple websites, design studios building client sites and developers who need code export. A single-site user who only needs a basic presence may find the broader commerce and CRM toolkit unnecessary.

Pros and cons

Pros: A large block and template collection supports a wide range of site types without requiring separate design starting points.
Pros: Store tools, payment integrations and built-in CRM connect selling with lead follow-up.
Pros: Responsive blocks and detailed SEO controls support publishing across screen sizes and search-oriented sites.
Cons: Free and Personal each cover only one website, limiting their fit for studios and multi-site businesses.
Cons: Code export and API access require Business, making the higher tier necessary for portability or integrations through the API.
Cons: Non-renewal unpublishes a site, and its stored data is deleted after six months if the subscription remains unpaid.

Alternatives

For vector-focused work rather than building a hosted website, Amadine offers a free version on iPad and iPhone, with exporting, printing and image tracing requiring purchase. Lunacy is another option for vector design; its free plan covers up to 10 cloud documents and 10 editors or exporters, with 30 days of version history.

Linearity Curve suits people looking for vector-design tools on iOS or macOS, with a free tier that includes 250 lifetime credits, one basic brand kit and 5GB cloud storage. Vecteezy offers a freemium option for image and video assets rather than a website builder.

SVGSketch is a web-based SVG editor with drawing tools and SVG and PNG export on its free plan; its Pro plan is $9.00 per month. Affinity is free for individuals and combines vector design, pixel photo editing, page layout and export tools on macOS and Windows. EazyDraw is a vector-design alternative for iOS and macOS. Vector Magic offers browser-based vector conversion at $9.95 per month for its Online Edition, with a subscription required to download results.

Browse Small Business Website Builders, Landing Page Builders, AI Website Builders, Personal Website Builders and No-Code Website Builders for more site-building options. For design software, see Vector Graphics Software.

Verdict

Choose Tilda if you want a hosted site builder that can also handle stores, lead management and content publishing, especially if Business's five-site allowance or code export matches your work. Look elsewhere if you need several sites but cannot justify Business, or want a focused personal page without the broader business toolkit.
