What is Solo?
Solo is an AI website builder from Mozilla for small businesses and solo professionals. You answer a few questions, and it organizes the sections, curates starter images and adds SEO keywords. The free plan connects and hosts your own domain with no ads, while paid plans add a free lifetime domain and more sites.
Many service businesses, such as barbers, electricians or therapists, need a simple site but not a complex builder. Solo creates one from a few inputs, can pull text and reviews from your existing social pages, and links a scheduling service for bookings. You then adjust the layout and style with simple tools, or start a site from a Facebook, Yelp or Thumbtack page.
