Why choose custom development over Carrd?
Ownership & Cost
✗ Carrd: $9-49/month subscription ($108-588/year forever)
✓ Custom site: One-time payment, you own everything
Customization
✗ Carrd: Limited to templates and pre-built features
✓ Custom site: Fully tailored to your exact needs, no restrictions
Performance & Professional Appeal
✗ Carrd: "Made with Carrd" branding on lower tiers
✓ Custom site: Faster loading, completely branded as yours
Scalability
✗ Carrd: Difficult to add complex features later
✓ Custom site: Easy to expand and add functionality as you grow
Bottom line: After 2-3 years, a Carrd subscription costs more than a custom site, with less flexibility and no ownership.
