* Web site builders can't build w3c compliant HTML, so it's likely
they'll render very differently on different browsers.
* If you switch builders, its very hard to bring your old work with
you. As your current builder gets updated, changes to your website
get harder and harder.
* If your builder uses "everything plus kitchen sink" CSS files or
stores static content in databases, it's going to be slow, even with
intercontinental caching (CDN -- Content Delivery Network).
* It's amazing how easy HTML and CSS are if approached the right way.

you need only a tiny subset of what's contained there.
