Webarto review
A focused artist portfolio builder with cataloguing, exhibitions, publishing, and Square sales.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Sep 2026
Webarto is a hosted portfolio website platform built for artists who need more than a simple gallery. Its artist-focused dashboard brings together artwork cataloguing, events, exhibitions, galleries, workshops, news, blogging, and website content management. Artists can record categories, availability, prices, sizes, and editions, then present that information through responsive pages with customizable themes, colours, fonts, logos, and menus. Smart content blocks and live preview support page creation, while built-in SEO, robots.txt, and sitemap generation address core discoverability needs.
The published annual plans scale mainly by content limits and domain support. Essential costs £65 per year and includes a Webarto subdomain, up to 50 artworks, up to 5 events and exhibitions, up to 50 news articles, and up to 50 blog posts. Portfolio costs £125 per year, adds a custom domain, and raises those limits to 200 artworks, 100 events and exhibitions, 200 news articles, and 200 blog posts. Portfolio+ costs £215 per year, includes a custom domain, removes the stated limits on artworks, events and exhibitions, news articles, and blog posts, and adds artwork sales tools. A 7-day free trial is available, but there is no free plan.
Webarto’s focus is narrower than a general-purpose website builder, which suits artists whose sites need structured artwork and exhibition content. The main commerce connection is Square Payments: artwork sales use the customer’s Square Payments account. That makes the product a sensible choice for artists who want portfolio presentation, publishing, and sales in one artist-specific system, particularly when the Portfolio+ limits fit their catalog. Artists needing broader payment integrations, a free tier, or a portfolio-only option without a platform-specific subdomain should consider alternatives. It is available on the web.
