About MyWebsite

Most website builders sell themselves to anybody with a browser and an idea for a domain. MyWebsite sells itself to people who have already bought hosting. The product belongs to IONOS, the European hosting group, and it reaches customers as part of a plan rather than as a separate decision. Available since 2013 and offered under a Proprietary model, it is a service rather than software anyone owns, and that arrangement explains most of what the numbers below show.

As of October 2026 we detect MyWebsite on 32,354 sites, and 28,023 of them are in Germany. Concentration of that kind is a distribution fact rather than a product fact. IONOS grew up in the German-speaking hosting market and still sells hardest there, so the builder inherits a customer base instead of competing for one, and the weighting toward .de in the domain mix repeats the same story from another angle.

Knowing that a site runs MyWebsite therefore tells you about the owner more than about the site. The typical operator is a small business or a sole trader who wanted a presence, took the builder that came with the domain, and has no developer in the building. Editing happens inside a hosted interface, the templates belong to the vendor, and there is no plugin ecosystem to speak of, so the site is unlikely to be extended with third-party software. For anyone selling to small businesses, the result is a clean segment: reachable, commercially active, and not defended by an agency.

Version data reinforces the picture. Only one version string appears across the whole population, 8, which is what a vendor-operated product looks like when the vendor upgrades everybody at once. Nobody running the builder is stranded on an old release, nobody needs a maintenance contract, and nobody can be sold a security update. Sites built this way have a different set of needs from self-hosted ones, and the gap matters when you are choosing which half of a market to address.

The detection caveat is straightforward. Builder output is recognised from the markup and asset patterns the platform generates, so a site that has been heavily customised, exported or placed behind a rewriting proxy can slip past us, and the count is a floor. There is also a churn signal buried in the same data, because a business that outgrows a bundled builder usually keeps its domain and moves the site. A per-domain check confirms one company. The downloadable file gives you the whole Germany segment at once, joined to every other technology found on those domains, which is the practical way to size this market or to work it.
