What is the best website for UExcel exam study prep & practice tests?

Excelsior's UExcel website of course! It all depends on which exam you're looking at, you can review what's at the library, or on Chegg, other sites for rental textbooks.

InstantCert has study guides for some UExcels: https://instantcert.com/uexcel_study_guides
I think Study.com has review courses for (most) others.

For the one UExcel that I did (Research Methods), I found that the SDC prep course was excellent and covered everything on the exam. Can't speak to any others. I used that in combination with the study guide that UExcel recommends, and the textbook that the study guide recommends. (But the truth is, I only used the textbook for a couple of units where the SDC material was a little confusing.)
If you happen to take that particular UExcel exam, and you do the SDC exam prep, you are also about 90% of the way completed with UExcel's REsearch Methods course. At least at TESU, the SDC and UExcel come through as different courses (one UL and one LL), so it's sort of like a two-for-one in terms of study time.

Exactly, It's a great idea to use overlapping courses if you're going to TESU. For other schools, you may want to see what the requirements are for your degree program and work on "similar courses/exams" due to more overlapping info. Not sure where the OP wants to get their degree, they may want to create a spreadsheet plan and go through that plan, course by course.

Study.com has classes to prepare for the UExcel exams! It has short video lessons and 5 minute quizzes, 10 minute chapter tests, 20 minute course practice exams, and online flashcards to help you prepare. Everything is super efficient and easy to navigate and in my opinion it made test-prepping a lot more enjoyable.
