GoDaddy launched a Website Builder API to empower third-party platforms like Tailor Brands with new website-building capabilities. With this API, partners can offer GoDaddy's features to users without extensive development. Small businesses gain access to AI-driven tools and marketing insights, bringing affordable, high-quality websites within reach of many.
GoDaddy’s new Website Builder API, announced on October 30, 2024, aims to expand its website creation capabilities to third-party platforms. This integration allows partners to offer the same award-winning website-building features GoDaddy is known for, without needing to create a similar infrastructure. Tailor Brands, a business-building platform, is the first partner to adopt this API, making it easier for small businesses and entrepreneurs to set up professional websites with GoDaddy’s tools.
Small businesses using Tailor Brands now have access to GoDaddy’s AI-powered tools. These include features like AI-generated content based on users’ business insights and image-based product description generation. The integration also provides marketing tools, such as a Marketing Calendar and AI-driven social post scheduling, helping business owners stay on top of promotions and important dates. This partnership will save users time and help them reach new customers in a streamlined, integrated way.
For partners like Tailor Brands, this API offers a pathway to increased customer engagement. GoDaddy’s Website Builder API is designed to drive customer retention by equipping users with high-quality website tools that make real business impact. Small business owners gain immediate access to SEO, social media scheduling, and analytics reporting to help monitor and improve their online presence. Additionally, customers can upgrade their plans to unlock online stores, appointment scheduling, and payment capabilities.
According to Oliver Hoare, GoDaddy’s VP of Strategic Partnerships, this API integration aligns with GoDaddy’s mission to empower small business owners with accessible, affordable solutions. "Companies wanting to offer website-building options without the cost of in-house development can now partner with GoDaddy," he explains. GoDaddy’s position as a Series C investor in Tailor Brands further demonstrates its commitment to supporting small businesses. This integration marks another step in GoDaddy’s ongoing efforts to enable entrepreneurship through innovative tech solutions.
