Carrd vs Dorik Comparison 2026
Carrd's Pro plan is billed once a year, from $19, and even the free plan covers three published sites. Dorik charges a monthly subscription instead, $20.75 a month billed as $249 a year, but that one subscription covers unlimited sites rather than a fixed number. A single link page favours Carrd's price; a person or agency running several small sites should weigh Dorik's one bill against paying for several of anything else.

Carrd
One-page sites that cost less than lunch
Carrd builds the single page most people actually need: a bio, a link list, a launch page, a form that collects email addresses. Three sites are free and Pro is priced by the year rather than the month, which is why it keeps winning link-in-bio arguments on price alone. A site that wants a blog or a shop outgrows it fast.
Our note
The cheapest way to stop handing out a social profile as though it were a home page. If Linktree's monthly bill is the one you keep meaning to cancel, this is the version you own.
Only on this side
- Covers landing pages & funnels
- Covers link in bio
Dorik
Unlimited sites on one subscription
Dorik prices by subscription rather than per site, so an agency or a person with several projects pays once instead of once each, and that is the entire argument for it. Hosting is included. The editor is block-based and the CMS handles the ordinary cases without a plugin. The trade against the larger builders is a smaller template library and fewer integrations, which is felt most by anybody whose site needs to talk to something unusual.
Why people weigh these two
- Dorik instead of Carrd
- Dorik lets one subscription cover unlimited sites, a trial at $20.75 with no free plan, the pick once a single page is not the only page you need.
- Carrd instead of Dorik
- Carrd covers one-page sites for less than lunch money, from $19 with a free tier, enough when the several small sites are genuinely tiny.
Which one should you pick
Carrd is the cheaper choice for one page or a small handful of them. Nineteen dollars a year, or nothing at all for up to three sites, covers a bio link, a launch page or a small portfolio outright. Anybody who wants a blog, a shop or a dozen sections has already outgrown what a single Carrd site is built to hold.
Dorik is priced for someone with several small sites to keep alive, where the per-site cost of other builders quietly becomes the biggest line item. Personal is $249 a year for unlimited sites, and the agency plan frames itself explicitly at $13 a site a month. Compare that total against what you currently pay across every site, not against Carrd's single subscription, or the comparison will not mean much.
Common questions
- Is Carrd actually cheaper than Dorik?
- For one site, yes by a wide margin: $19 a year against Dorik's $249. Dorik's price only makes sense once you are running several sites on the one unlimited-site subscription.
- Does either limit how many sites I can build?
- Carrd's free plan covers three; Pro adds more depending on tier. Dorik places no cap on sites at all on any paid plan, which is its whole argument.
- Which one includes hosting?
- Both do. Carrd hosts on a carrd.co address or your own domain with SSL. Dorik hosts every site on the subscription with no separate host to configure.
- Is there a free trial for either?
- Carrd gives seven days free before the first Pro charge. Dorik offers a seven-day full-access trial too, but has no permanent free tier the way Carrd does.
