Dokan vs. Duda

Dokan is a multi-vendor marketplace. It is usually good for small mom-and-pop shops with less than 1000 items.

Duda is great for small to medium sized websites building, where some level of animation is ok and mostly for presenting online information, and its SEO performance is very good then. But for very large or heavily interactive websites it may not be the best choice.

Upon using the builder for the first time, I found Duda to be extremely intuitive and easy to figure out, but also has a high skill-ceiling. After 5 years of building in the drag-and-drop builder, I continue to teach myself new tricks and methods to continually improve my process and design capabilities within the platform. I've built dozens of Duda sites and each one is better than the last.

The support needs to be improved as some of the support representatives do not seem to understand the client's request and keep sending canned responses.

Duda lets me customize the entire page. With Squarespace, many of the templates were limiting on editing the header and footer. Also in the past, I couldn't change the page title and page header to be different in Squarespace. This was not good for SEO. Wix is good but also a little bulky and glitchy.

• Positive impact on small to medium shops.
• Needs good advertisement and features to get large shops to sign up.
