Showit is the platform behind every Maeten template — a drag-and-drop website builder that gives interior designers complete creative control, no code required. If you can arrange a room, you can edit a Showit site.
Unlike many website builders, Showit gives you the freedom to create a fully custom website while keeping the editing experience simple and intuitive. Whether you're adding a new project to your portfolio, updating your services, publishing journal posts, or refining your content as your studio evolves, Showit makes it easy to manage your website yourself.

Showit: FAQ
How much does Showit cost?
Showit plans start at around $19/month, with higher tiers offering more features. An annual plan works out cheaper than paying month to month.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Showit is entirely drag-and-drop. You can build and edit your site without touching a single line of code.
Can I edit my website myself after it's set up?
Yes — that's one of Showit's biggest advantages. Everything is visual and editable, so you're never dependent on a developer to make changes.
Does Showit work for blogging?
Yes. Showit runs your blog through WordPress, which is the industry standard for blogging and gives you strong SEO foundations.
How does Showit compare to Squarespace or Wix?
Squarespace and Wix lock you into their own template structures. Showit gives you true design freedom — whether you're starting from scratch or customising a professionally designed template, nothing is constrained by the platform itself.
Can I use my own domain with Showit?
Yes. You easily connect your existing domain directly to your Showit site.
Is Showit good for SEO?
Yes. The WordPress blog integration gives you solid SEO capability, and Showit's pages are fully customisable for meta titles and descriptions.
Can I sell products or services through Showit?
Showit integrates with third-party tools like ThriveCart, Shopify and WooCommerce, so selling services or digital products is straightforward.
Do I need a separate hosting plan?
No. Hosting is included in your Showit subscription.
What happens if I need help with my Showit site?
Showit has its own support team and an active user community. If you're starting with a Maeten template, our documentation and support resources are included with your purchase and we are always available to help.
