Sitejet Builder is a free drag-and-drop website builder integrated into Plesk. It lets you create professional, responsive websites without any coding knowledge. You can choose from a library of templates, customize the design, and publish your site directly from Plesk. This guide covers creating and publishing a website with Sitejet Builder.
Creating a New Website with Sitejet Builder
- Log in to Plesk.
- Go to Websites & Domains.
- Click Add Domain.
- Under "Choose a way of creating a website", select Sitejet Builder.
- Enter your domain name and webspace settings as usual.
- Click Add Domain.
- The Sitejet Builder template gallery will open.
- Browse templates and click on one to preview it, or use the AI Website Generator (if available) to create a site from a brief description.
- Click Use template to start editing.
Editing Your Website
Sitejet Builder provides a visual editor where you can:
- Add and edit text: Click on any text element to edit the content.
- Add images: Drag and drop images from your computer or use the built-in stock photo library.
- Add pages: Create new pages from the page management menu.
- Customize design: Change fonts, colours, spacing, and layout using the style settings.
- Add forms: Create contact forms and other interactive elements.
- Configure SEO: Set page titles, meta descriptions, and keywords for search engines.
Publishing Your Website
- When you are happy with your design, click Publish.
- Your website will go live on the domain.
Important: Publishing a Sitejet Builder website will replace all files in the document root. If you already have a website, back it up first.

- Your domain should be properly resolving to the server before publishing.

- Sitejet websites are responsive by default — they work on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
Troubleshooting
Sitejet Builder option is not available:
- Your subscription may not have the "Access to Sitejet Builder" permission. Contact your hosting provider.
Changes not appearing after publishing:

Cannot access the editor:
