Ning Review – Ning vs Ultimate Web Builder – Top 10 reasons UWB wins as best social networking website builder

If you’re looking to build your own social networking website – whether you are a complete beginner with no coding experience, a web designer, or even a programmer looking to save a lot of web development time & cost – you are in the right place.  Ultimate Web Builder is not just the best website builder software, it is also the best social networking website builder software.

Ning Review – Here’s comparing the Ning social networking website builder to Ultimate Web Builder…Top 10 reasons Ultimate Web Builder wins as the best social networking website development solution for you:

1) Cost.  Ning charges you a lot.  You have to pay their monthly fees, and extra for less limitations and more social networking apps/plugins.  Ning can and does raise fees.  And you have to keep paying, or you lose your whole website.
->Ultimate Web Builder: There is just a one-time software license fee.  One price and all apps built-in.  You can choose to host with us, or host with another web hosting company.  The website is yours – you don’t lose your content and members if you stop paying the monthly hosting fees, because you can take a backup of your website and actually save it.

2) Ning limits you.  You have to pay if you want more disk space, more bandwidth (traffic), and allow more members to access your social networking website.
->Ultimate Web Builder: There is no limits on how many members you can have – it is your website.  If you host with us, there is also unlimited disk space and bandwidth.  No paying extra for every little milestone your website makes.

3) Ning: Your website must be hosted on Ning – so if you want to stop paying, for example if Ning raises subscription fees, you lose your whole social networking website and have to start all over because it is a hosted website builder.
->Ultimate Web Builder: As noted above: You can choose to host with us, or host with another web hosting company.  The website is yours – you don’t lose your content and members if you stop paying the monthly hosting fees, because you can take a backup of your website and actually save it.

4) On Ning your social network members AREN’T YOUR members – they sign up as a Ning member, not a member of your social networking website exclusively.
->Ultimate Web Builder: Your website, your members.  You can manage your members from your website Admin Panel.  You can even upload avatars to allow your members to select from, besides being able to upload their own profile picture.

5) On Ning you don’t have full customization options, or options to add your own coding and features.
->Ultimate Web Builder: Your website is fully customizeable, no coding experience required.  If you want, you can even add your own coding to your website too.

6) Ning is just a social networking website builder, so it does not have all the bells and whistles for a well-rounded top notch website.
->Ultimate Web Builder: It is not just a social networking website builder, but a website builder with a lot of built-in apps important to a successful and good looking website – i.e. add photo slideshows/galleries with a click of a button, mailing list, reformat webpages easily, set different access settings for different webpages and member groups, etc…

7) Ning doesn’t have an online Demo.  If you want to test something out, you have to register and start a new social network website.  A lot of hassle and wasted time.
->Ultimate Web Builder: You can test out our software, with access to both a demo admin panel, and the demo front end, to check out your changes,  Play around with the features and apps.

8) Ultimate Web Builder has the best built-in SEO tool – if your Ning social network website can’t be found, you will be needing to have to spend a lot more on advertising.

9) On Ultimate Web Builder you can easily customize and integrate your social networking sections – registration form, login form, public profile page, inbox, sent box….

10) With a click of a button you can add a comments/rating section to any of your webpages with Ultimate Web Builder… Not on Ning.
