Clay review
A fast starter site for gyms that need bookings, schedules and local business details.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Clay creates websites for gyms, yoga studios, fitness businesses and other local businesses from a Google business listing. It imports business photos, hours, reviews, map and contact details, then publishes an editable site. Gym-specific pages can display classes and schedules, accept online class bookings, provide appointment booking and capture leads. Content can be edited from the live page and phone, with menus, shops, galleries and contact sections available for broader local-business needs. It is best suited to gyms that want a focused web presence without building every page from scratch.
The pricing structure is straightforward. The Free plan costs €0 and includes a live site on a name.clay.site address, an editable site and a Clay badge in the footer. Pro costs €29 per month when billed monthly or €290 per year when billed annually. Both Pro options include a custom domain, booking features, removal of the Clay badge, hosting and HTTPS. Prices are shown in euros and exclude VAT. The free plan remains available indefinitely, making it suitable for testing a basic presence or keeping costs low; Pro is the relevant tier for a branded domain and booking functionality.
Clay’s main strength is its narrow focus on turning an existing Google business listing into a useful gym site. Refreshing Google listing information and SEO data can help keep core business details aligned, while schedules, class bookings and appointments address common fitness-business needs. The trade-off is scope: Clay does not process recurring memberships or card payments for classes, and payment links and integrations are not part of the published feature set. Gyms needing membership billing, payment workflows, broader integrations or a mobile app should choose a more specialized alternative. Gyms seeking a simple, locally grounded starter site with booking features should find the Pro plan the closer fit.
