10 Reasons We Love Showit (And Why You Will Too)
In a digital age where first impressions often happen online, your website isn’t just a digital home — it’s the visual embodiment of your brand, your values, and your voice. For creatives, coaches, designers, and entrepreneurs who crave a platform that doesn’t just work but inspires, Showit has quickly become the not-so-secret weapon for building standout online presences.
At Fjōr Avenue, we design editorial, minimalist, and modern Showit templates for visionary creatives — and we’ve tested countless platforms along the way. Yet time and time again, we return to Showit. Why? Because no other website builder offers the same combination of design freedom, usability, and performance.
Whether you’re new to Showit or already a fan, we’re sharing 10 compelling reasons why we absolutely love this platform — and why it might just be the perfect fit for your creative business too.
1. Total Creative Freedom with Drag-and-Drop Design
Let’s be honest — most website builders promise “freedom,” only to box you into rigid templates and inflexible layouts. Showit is different. It offers true drag-and-drop capabilities that feel more like designing in Adobe InDesign or Canva than in a traditional website builder.
You can place text, images, and design elements anywhere on the canvas — no rows, columns, or grids required. Want to overlap text on a photo or create a dreamy, floating layout? Go for it. The creative boundaries are yours to define.
For brand designers, photographers, and coaches who value aesthetic as much as function, Showit is the platform that finally says “yes” to your wildest ideas.
2. Beautifully Responsive Designs Without the Coding Headache
Designing for mobile is no longer optional — it’s essential. Over 60% of traffic comes from phones, and Showit understands this better than most platforms.
With Showit, you can customize mobile and desktop versions separately. That means you’re not stuck with auto-generated mobile views that break your layout or compromise your aesthetic. You can resize, rearrange, or hide elements entirely — all with zero coding.
This makes for a much better user experience across devices and gives you total control over how your site looks, no matter the screen size.
3. Seamless WordPress Integration for Powerful Blogging
One of Showit’s most brilliant features? It integrates seamlessly with WordPress — the world’s most powerful blogging platform. This means you can enjoy the creative freedom of Showit for your website and the SEO power and functionality of WordPress for your blog.
Unlike other drag-and-drop builders, Showit allows you to create completely custom blog designs. You’re not limited to standard layouts — you can craft a blog that matches your brand identity, feels cohesive, and supports your content strategy beautifully.
This combo is a game-changer for creatives who want to attract organic traffic, build authority, and keep visitors engaged longer.
4. No Coding Required — Ever
With Showit, you don’t need to write a single line of code to create a high-end, fully custom website. Everything from layout and navigation to buttons and animations can be done through the intuitive visual builder.
For creatives who’ve been frustrated by other platforms’ need for “just a little bit of CSS,” Showit is a breath of fresh air. It’s built for designers and creatives — not developers. You can finally focus on what you love: designing beautiful experiences, not troubleshooting code.
5. Built for Creative Entrepreneurs and Personal Brands
Some platforms cater to e-commerce. Others to tech startups. But Showit is tailored specifically for creatives and personal brands — the photographers, coaches, designers, writers, and service providers who want their personality and vision to shine online.
From the fonts and spacing to the storytelling layout options, everything about Showit supports narrative-driven branding and visual storytelling. You’re not just building a website — you’re building an experience that aligns with who you are and what you offer.
6. A Support Team That Actually Cares
Have you ever reached out to a tech platform’s support team only to receive a robotic response or a link to an unhelpful FAQ? With Showit, that’s not the case.
Their customer support is legendary — responsive, friendly, and genuinely invested in helping users succeed. Whether you’re struggling with a launch-day glitch or just have a design question, Showit’s team (and community!) is always there to help.
For solopreneurs and small businesses, having real humans in your corner makes a world of difference.
7. Gorgeous Template Ecosystem for Every Creative Niche
Showit’s template marketplace (and thriving third-party ecosystem) is a treasure trove of design inspiration. Whether you’re a photographer, wellness coach, designer, or event planner, there’s a template tailored to your style and niche.
At Fjōr Avenue, we’ve leaned into this potential, crafting editorial-style templates that are modern, minimal, and strategically built for conversion. The ability to start with a stunning base, then customize every detail without limitations, makes launching a professional website feel completely doable.
Bonus? Templates let you move faster, save money, and launch with confidence — without sacrificing quality or uniqueness.
8. Built-In SEO Tools to Help You Get Found
While Showit is known for beauty, it doesn’t skimp on performance. It includes essential on-page SEO settings like meta descriptions, page titles, alt text, and custom URLs — all within a user-friendly interface.
And because your blog is powered by WordPress, you can also use popular SEO plugins like Yoast or Rank Math to further boost your visibility.
For creatives looking to grow sustainably and attract dream clients organically, this mix of design + SEO is pure gold.
9. Flexible Hosting and Site Security Taken Care Of
One of the biggest perks of Showit is that hosting is included with your subscription. You don’t have to worry about managing servers, security certificates, or tech updates — Showit handles it all.
Even better? Their servers are optimized for performance and reliability, so your site is fast, secure, and always available. You also get free SSL (so your site is secure with HTTPS) and daily backups — no extra setup required.
This peace of mind is especially valuable for business owners who want to focus on their clients, not their tech stack.
10. Freedom to Evolve with Your Brand
Perhaps our favorite thing about Showit is this: it grows with you.
Whether you’re just starting out with your first portfolio or scaling a multi-six-figure coaching business, Showit gives you the tools to evolve your site as your brand matures. Want to launch a new offer, rebrand, or add new sales pages? You can do it all without needing a developer.
This kind of long-term flexibility is rare — and it means your website doesn’t have to be redone every time your business pivots. Instead, it can evolve right alongside you.
Final Thoughts: Showit Isn’t Just a Platform — It’s a Creative Revolution
In a sea of website builders, Showit stands out not just for what it offers, but for who it’s built for. It was designed with creatives in mind — the artists, storytellers, visionaries, and dreamers who want their online space to feel as intentional and inspiring as their offline one.
At Fjōr Avenue, we’ve built our entire business around this platform because we believe it empowers our clients to not just exist online — but to thrive. If you’re craving a website that mirrors your creativity, communicates your brand’s essence, and invites people into a beautifully curated experience, Showit is the answer.
Whether you DIY your site with a template or hire a designer to bring your vision to life, one thing’s certain: you’ll never look at web design the same way again.
