Work on a website with other people

Editor and viewer roles come with every plan, and the paid plans include seats rather than charging for every head you add. What they do not include yet is two people editing the same page at once.

The short answer.

Roles are on every plan: you decide who edits the site and who only looks at it. Seats are what the paid plans meter — Solo includes 2 editors, Plus includes 4 and Pro includes 6, and an extra editor is added to the subscription rather than moving you to a team tier. The part to plan around is real-time co-editing, which Siter.io lists as upcoming.

  • Seats, not per head

    The editors are already in the price. Going past the included number adds $4 on Solo, $6 on Plus or $8 on Pro to the subscription cost, which is a smaller decision than a whole new plan.

  • One editor at a time

    Real-time co-editing? No - listed as upcoming. What the editor does when two people open one page anyway — whether anything locks, warns or reconciles the two sets of changes — is not documented anywhere we can cite, and a live client project is the wrong place to find out. What you need here is an agreement, not a feature.

  • How to split the work.

    Five decisions. The fourth is the one that actually saves you.

    1. Count the seats your plan includes.

    2. Sort people into editors and viewers.

    3. Buy extra seats only if needed.

    4. Agree one editor at a time.

    5. Check version history after handovers.

  • Working without live co-editing, in detail

    Nominate a holder. One person has the site at any given time and says so in whatever chat the team already uses. Short sessions beat long ones: an hour with the file, then hand it on. The handover message costs ten seconds and is the entire mechanism.

    Split by page, not by section. Two designers working on different pages of one site is a far safer arrangement than two designers agreeing to stay in different halves of the same page. Page boundaries are visible; imaginary lines inside a canvas are not.

    Assume nothing is merged. How the editor settles two people saving the same page is not documented, so do not build a process that depends on a particular answer. Version history is part of the product, so there is somewhere to look after a collision, but what a restore covers and how far back it reaches are not documented either. Check both in the app before you treat version history as an undo button for a whole afternoon.

    Default people to viewer. A client following progress, a founder checking copy, a developer reading the layout — none of them need to be able to change anything. An editor seat is for someone whose job is to move things.

    Two details this page will not guess at: exactly what each role can and cannot do, and whether a viewer consumes one of the editor seats your plan includes. Roles and seats are separate rows on the pricing table and it does not say how they interact. The app is the authoritative source for both, so read them there before you buy a seat you may not need.

What each plan includes.

Roles are the row that is identical everywhere. Seats are the row that moves. The free column on the seat rows is deliberately empty, and the footnote under the table explains why.

Read off the “View all features and options” table on siter.io/pricing on 2026-09-03. * The free plan advertises no limit on this row, and Siter.io’s own help articles say otherwise. Rather than print a number we cannot stand behind, we have left it out and asked for it to be settled.

Two more rows matter to a team even though they are not seat rows. The pricing page lists ownership transfer on every plan, which is how a finished site leaves your account for a client. And can everyone on the team publish? No - the free plan builds and previews privately; publishing needs a paid plan (from $7/mo billed yearly). Whoever is going to press publish has to be on a plan that can.

Four things worth knowing.

Two of these are how the product is priced. The other two are things we would rather you read now than discover during a client handover.

  • There is no live co-editing

    Siter.io lists real-time co-editing as upcoming, which means it is not here today. What the editor does if two people open one page anyway is not documented, so plan as though nothing is protecting you. This is the one thing to design your process around.

  • Seats come with the plan

    A per-seat tool bills you for every head you add. Here each paid plan arrives with editor seats already in it, and you only pay more once you go past that number.

  • The free-plan seat position is unsettled

    The pricing page and the help articles say different things about collaborators on the free plan, and nobody has reconciled them. Confirm what your account actually allows in the app before you plan a team around it.

  • Handing a site to a client

    The pricing page lists ownership transfer on every plan. Check what travels with the site, and that the client has a plan that can publish, before you promise a clean handover.

Frequently asked.

Can two people edit a website at the same time?

Not as a live shared session. Siter.io lists real-time co-editing as upcoming, so there is no supported way for two people to work in one page at the same moment. What the editor actually does if they try anyway — lock, warn, overwrite, something else — is not documented, and that uncertainty is itself the reason not to risk it. Split the work by page instead, and say out loud who is holding one.

How many editors can I have on my website?

Solo includes 2, Plus includes 4 and Pro includes 6. Past that, each additional editor is added to the subscription cost: $4 on Solo, $6 on Plus, $8 on Pro. There is no separate team tier to graduate to, so a team of five sits on Plus with a seat added rather than in a sales conversation.

What is the difference between an editor and a viewer?

An editor changes the site. A viewer looks at it without being able to change it, which is the right role for a client following progress or a colleague checking copy. Beyond that split, what each role can and cannot do is not spelled out on any page we can cite — the pricing table names the roles and stops — so read the permissions in the app before handing anyone edit rights.

Can I collaborate on the free plan?

Roles are listed on every plan, but the number of collaborators the free plan allows is genuinely unsettled — the pricing page and Siter.io’s own help articles say different things and it has not been reconciled. We are not going to print a figure we cannot stand behind. Open your own account and confirm what it lets you add before inviting anyone.

What happens if two people save at the same time?

It is not documented and we are not guessing at it. With real-time co-editing listed as upcoming, there is no published account of how simultaneous saves are handled, so treat the outcome as unknown and unrecoverable. Version history gives you somewhere to look afterwards, but unpicking an afternoon of two-way overwriting through it is optimistic. The cheap fix is a rule rather than a recovery: one person holds a page, announces it, and announces when they are done.

How do I hand a website over to a client?

The pricing page lists ownership transfer on every plan, which moves a site out of your account and into someone else's. Do it once the work is signed off rather than mid-edit. Before you promise a clean handover, confirm in the app what travels with the site, and check that the client is on a plan that can publish it.

Is this workable for an agency with several clients?

Plus publishes 3 websites and Pro publishes 5, with extra sites added to the subscription at $6 and $8. Seats come with the plan, so bringing a freelancer in for a month is a small change rather than a new per-person bill. The gap is live co-editing: two designers over one page at once will feel its absence.
