Cost-Effective Tips for Creating Event Registration Microsites

·

Microsite – Event Registration Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice on setting up a website for event registration. I’m planning a conference for about 150 attendees and want to create a simple site where people can register. My team is estimating a fairly high cost and a 30-day timeline, which feels excessive to me—especially since I imagine it’s just a few pages and basic registration functionality. I see others run similar events regularly, and the signup experience seems pretty lightweight. Does anyone have experience with setting up event microsites more cost-effectively? I’d really appreciate any tips, tools, or approaches you’ve used. Thanks in advance!

A lot of tools make this pretty easy and cheap. I personally like squarespace, just used to it and the UI/ builder is easy for me.

Lu.Ma for smaller events & they offer promotions & referrals But, Eventbrite has wider customization & integration capabilities.

Yeah, I have made custom event reg microsites and always think, "we should have just used Eventbrite." It's easy to overthink this one. I still don't love the app but I still pick it.

Totally get it-30 days and high costs for a simple event site sounds way too much. I’d recommend Wix for your conference. It’s super easy to use, with event templates and built-in registration forms, so you can launch in a day or two without coding or big expenses. Plus, it’s mobile-friendly and customizable to fit your event’s vibe. Start free and upgrade only if needed.
