Why Pixpa
Change anything you can see
Most builders hand you a theme and a list of options. You pick from what the theme allows, and the moment you want something it doesn't, you stop. Pixpa's Design section works the other way round. You set the element.
Fonts are set per element, so headings, paragraphs, buttons, navigation and footer text each carry their own family, size, weight and letter spacing. 200+ Google Fonts come with every plan; upload your own font files. Site width, content margin, and the left and right site margins are numeric fields rather than presets. Header width, footer width and header layout, top or two-column, are all yours to change. Grid spacing runs 0 to 250 pixels. Image corner radius is a number you type. Grid hover is a choice between no effect, color, color with the image title, or color with an icon, and you pick the icon.
Then Style History saves what you built as a named version. Switch templates a year later and reapply that version, fonts, colors, weights and gallery layouts together, in one click.
Templates
Start from 200+ designer-made templates
Every template is drawn by working designers for visual work, not a business theme with an image block dropped in. Pick one built for your discipline and you start from something that already looks finished.
Browse the portfolio website templates by discipline, or look at portfolio website examples from people already running their practice on Pixpa.
Look professional from day one
Each template is professionally designed, so your site looks credible and polished before you change a single thing on it.
Switch templates anytime
Change your entire look with a click. Your images, galleries and pages stay exactly where they are, so a redesign never means rebuilding from scratch.
Make it unmistakably yours
Customize fonts, colors, spacing and layout on any template, so your site reflects your brand and no two Pixpa sites have to look the same.
“The templates are professional yet unique, and it is easy to navigate.”
Examples
See real websites built on Pixpa
Templates show you the frame; examples show you what working creatives actually build inside it. Browse live websites from photographers, artists and designers to see how galleries, project pages, stores and client delivery come together on a real site, then borrow the ideas that fit your own work before you start.
No-code builder
Full design control
Most people who build here never open the code. The ones who do are usually the reason they picked Pixpa over a closed builder.
Custom CSS lives in the Design section and is on every plan, not held back for a top tier. What you write there overrides the template defaults and stays active when you switch templates, so a year of styling does not evaporate in a redesign. For one page only, page code injection takes CSS or a script that runs on that page and nowhere else. You can edit a page's HTML directly, or drag an HTML, JS and CSS block into any page and paste in a widget, a scheduling embed, a Spotify player or a Vimeo reel.
None of it takes the visual editor away, and you don't have to choose one mode over the other. Open the code when you need it, close it, and carry on dragging blocks.

Build pages from 300+ ready-made content blocks by dragging them into place, with no code to write and no developer to hire.
-
Full design control
Set fonts, colors, spacing, grids and hover states yourself, so the design matches your brand instead of a generic off-the-shelf theme.
-
Code access when you want it
Add custom CSS, HTML or JavaScript whenever you need precise control, without breaking the visual editor or the rest of your site.
-
AI Writer built in

“Website creation was much easier than this non-techie person could have imagined.”
Galleries & media
Gallery layouts built to show your work
A single grid flattens a body of work that deserves range. Pixpa gives you gallery layouts designed for visual work, so a wedding set, a design portfolio and a film reel each get the presentation they actually need instead of the same uniform thumbnails.
-
Layouts for every body of work
Choose from full-bleed, grid, masonry, justified and slideshow layouts, and mix them across pages to control the pace of the story you tell.
-
Sharp on every screen
Your images display in high resolution and stay crisp from a phone to a 5K monitor, with no manual resizing or exporting on your part.
-
More than still images
Add video, audio, slideshows and embeds, so motion, sound and interactive work live alongside your photographs in the same gallery.
No second tool. No second login. No second bill.
What else is built in
The site builder is one surface of the platform. Four more run alongside it on the same account and the same subscription, so client delivery, sales, publishing and search all work on the site you just built.

Blog
Publishing built into the site, no plugin needed.
