There’s a common saying you may have heard: “Keep it simple, superhero.” (Sometimes people say “stupid” instead of “superhero,” but we're nicer than that.)
That expression holds up for a reason — humans love simplicity, especially when it comes to visual experiences like websites. The less information visitors need to process, the more easily they can enjoy your site and the more likely they are to convert.
That said, creating a simple website is not as, well, simple as it may seem. It’s easy for complexity to creep in as you try adding more features and visual elements. That’s why we recommend starting with a template to guide you through your website-building process. In this post, we’ve compiled 20 of our favorite simple website templates for your design inspiration.
