WEB4U vs BuiltByBit
BuiltByBit is great for selling to an active developer community. WEB4U is where you build your long term home and keep full control of your business.
What BuiltByBit does well
BuiltByBit gives creators a trusted space to reach buyers who already search for plugins, assets, and services.
Strong developer audience
You sell directly to people who want exactly what you offer. That boosts early sales.
Easy listing system
You upload your product, set your price, and you are ready. No big setup.
Reputation system
Reviews help you build trust early, which is harder to do alone on a standalone site.
Where BuiltByBit feels limited
The marketplace is useful, but it is not made to replace a real website.
No full branding
Your store looks like every other marketplace shop. You cannot build a full brand identity.
Fees on every sale
It takes a cut of your income. The more you earn, the more you lose.
Limited independence
You rely on the platform rules, layout, and changes. You cannot shape the experience freely.
How do we handle these limits
WEB4U gives you a complete business website with your own structure, design, and tools.
Custom branded site
Your own platform with your own identity. Everything is built around your brand.
No marketplace rules
You control your products, layout, checkout, client flow, and marketing.
Better for long term growth
SEO, custom pages, landing pages, and integrations help you grow outside any single marketplace.
Lower long term cost
You avoid marketplace cuts. A fixed cost keeps your margins clean.
Flexible integrations
Automation, CRM, support systems, client dashboards. All possible and tailored.
Works alongside marketplace sales
You can use BuiltByBit for visibility but have us do your main website to protect your brand & income.
