Here’s the Sites@UMW page I made. I would describe the difference between the two like this. DoOO is basically whatever you want it to be. You can customize your URL completely, choose from thousands of plugins to add various effects to your website, and even more customizable themes to create a unique website. You can even download or create your own themes and plugins if you’d like. There are a lot of different applications you can use to build it but most people choose WordPress, the golden child of website creation. Everyone can make one domain but as many subdomains as you want, that can link back to each other if you want. You can also take the website with you when you graduate. Sites@UMW is the same idea but you get to do a lot less. The URL has to have .umwsites.net at the end, and the themes and plugins available are 41 in total. WordPress comes installed automatically but you can’t use any of the other applications though you can make as many subsites as you want. The sacrifice in customization is that is very low-maintenance since admins manage updates of themes/plugins so you don’t have to worry about outdated code messing up your website. You can take the content with you when you graduate but not the URL. If you want to create a simple website for a club or project Sites@UMW is likely the easier option but if you want full control over something that is your own DoOO is the superior choice.
