CALIFORNIA – Social media conglomerate Facebook has announced to launch its own free website builder and paid web hosting service to support the businesses during the pandemic.
By investing in these new business tools, the social media company is working with its partners to launch this service in the coming months. It will directly compete with other website builders like Wix and GoDaddy.
The company aims to target small and medium-size businesses which are looking for cost-friendly and reliable solutions.
