Tilda vs WordPress.com
Both ladders below were read from the vendors’ own pricing pages, in this market, on the dates shown. Nothing is converted: what you see is what each page showed a reader here.
What each one is
Tildasite ↗pricing ↗
A website builder based on a large library of pre-made blocks, popular for long-form pages and editorial-looking sites. Paid plans start at $15/mo (Personal 1 website); no free plan is published. The ladder we hold runs 2 paid tiers, topping out at $25/mo (Business 5 websites). It bills by country — entry $10/mo to a UK reader and $10/mo in the eurozone, from our same-day reads.
WordPress.comsite ↗pricing ↗
The hosted version of WordPress: the same publishing software as the self-hosted original, run for you, with plans that unlock plugins and themes at higher tiers. Paid plans start at $4/mo (Personal); a free plan exists. The ladder we hold runs 4 paid tiers, topping out at $45/mo (Commerce Free Personal Premium). We read the same $4/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country.

Where they differ
- Cheapest way in: WordPress.com at $4/mo, against Tilda at $15/mo. That is the entry price in this market on the dates shown, not a judgement about which suits you.
- Free plans: only WordPress.com publishes one — a plan priced at zero, not a trial.
- How far each ladder goes: Tilda tops out at $25/mo, WordPress.com at $45/mo. A deeper ladder is not a worse deal — it is a bill that keeps climbing if you keep growing.
- Tilda: It bills by country — entry $10/mo to a UK reader and $10/mo in the eurozone, from our same-day reads.
- WordPress.com: We read the same $4/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country.
How to choose in this category
- First-term discounts are common here — the renewal figure is the one you will live with.
- Free plans usually carry the vendor’s branding and domain.
- A site is hard to move; weigh the exit cost before the entry price.
