“No Hosting Fees!”
SiteKit is the first website builder to offer an unlimited website with no monthly fee. SiteKit introduces a new model for website builders, based on the idea that small businesses should only pay for things that they decide are valuable. SiteKit is integrated with the Moboom Market, an App Store-like marketplace of free and premium templates, stock photos, integrations, etc. Free and unlimited SiteKit features include: professionally-designed, responsive website templates, SEO optimization, social integration, blogs, and more. Amazon cloud hosting, bandwidth, storage, pages, etc. are all unlimited. It’s an incredibly easy to use platform: all you need to do is pick a template, upload images and text, and you're ready to launch a new site.

It called itself the first website builder to work this way.
