I don't think you could build anything useful with wix, godaddy builder, etc. To explain it the best way I can - most software consists of a database, a front-end, and a backend to process data. I'm using a frontend right now to enter this reply. When I post this reply, the backend is going to input some data into the forum database along with my userID, then display it to me and everyone else. WIX, Godaddy, etc will just let you build static sites for displaying info based on their database. That's why they can do it so cheap, it's just a single data structure being resold with cusotmized front-ends. You can't customize the databases or do much outside of what they lock you into.
Anyway - that being said, I always encourage aspiring software entrepreneurs to just learn to code. It takes about 4-6 months if you are dedicated.
You can hire a developer out of india - IE my newest product was about $6k in salaries to finish, but to be honest they are useless most of the time unless you're providing clear direction and have knowledge of how things work. If not, the product will be strung out forever, I'm seeing someone go through this now.
Also, any software needs to constantly improve and reiterate. You'll have to keep paying your dev to do this and not be able to provide direction on how to structure data will be a big mess.
Alternatively you can seek a cofounder with coding experience.
Just learn it - lots of courses out there.
The best advice I can give you is to start with the basics, as dumbed down as possible. Like HTML/CSS to start and then go from there. Learning to code is frustrating because you'll fail one thing 100 times in some cases, but you just can't quit and eventually after 6 months you'll understand it.
