Carrd vs DragDrop
Carrd is the king of one-page sites, and it costs about as much as a sandwich per year. We mean that as a compliment. DragDrop is for the day one page is not enough: a blog, a projects section, a contact form that emails you, and room to grow.
One site per project
Many sites, one platform
TL;DR
Carrd is perfect for one page. DragDrop is for when you need more than one.
Use Carrd if…
- One page really is all you need.
- You want the cheapest possible way online.
- You love tools that do one thing beautifully.
Use DragDrop if…
- You need more pages: a blog, a portfolio, an about page.
- You want forms with email alerts on the free plan.
- You want structured content like projects or listings.
- You want a site that can grow all the way to code.
Key differences.
More than one page
Carrd is proudly single-page. DragDrop gives you real navigation, a blog, and collections for structured content. Free covers 5 pages, and paid plans go up to unlimited.
Still free to start
DragDrop Free includes your own domain with automatic SSL, forms with email alerts, and 5 pages. The only branding is a small Powered by DragDrop footer.
A ceiling you will not hit soon
When you want more than the visual tools offer, open any block as real code in the studio. Carrd tops out at embeds.
The same job, two ways.
Shipping a page for one client in Carrd, and for every client at once in the DragDrop studio.

Switching from Carrd, in three moves.
Most teams run both platforms in parallel for a week and cut over on a quiet afternoon.
Bring your content
Export pages, posts, and media from Carrd. Our importer maps them onto blocks, and our team helps with the fiddly parts when you ask.
Rebuild with blocks
Recompose your layouts from 90+ ready-made blocks. Anything custom, a developer can rebuild as a block right inside the studio.
Point your domain
Connect your domain, SSL issues automatically, and 301 redirects carry over every ranking you’ve earned. Nothing breaks on launch day.
