Wix is a website builder that has been around since 2006. It is a platform that allows you to create a website without having to code or design it yourself. You can use Wix to create a website for free, but if you want to use your own domain name (such as www.example.com), you will need to upgrade to a paid plan.
There are four main ways that you can make money with Wix:
Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.
1. Sell products or services on your website
If you have a product or service that you want to sell online, you can do so using Wix.
You can set up an online store and take payments using Wix Payments. You will need to upgrade to a paid plan to do this, as the free plan does not include eCommerce features.
First and foremost, it is important to be aware that Wix websites are not optimised for search engines. This means that if you want to generate traffic and make money from your website, you will need to invest time and effort into promoting it through other channels.
Additionally, Wix does not offer any ecommerce features. This means that if you want to sell products or services online, you will need to use a third-party platform such as Shopify or BigCommerce.
Finally, it is worth noting that Wix websites can be quite costly to maintain. If you do not have a regular income from your website, you may find yourself struggling to keep up with the monthly fees.
2. Advertise on your website
If you have a website with traffic, you can apply to become a Wix Partner and earn money by displaying ads on your site. This is only available on paid plans, as ads are not allowed on free websites.
3. Create and sell courses online
If you have expertise in a particular subject, you can create and sell courses using the Wix LMS app. This app is available on both paid and free plans, but you will need to pay transaction fees if you sell courses on a free plan.
4. Become an affiliate
Wix has an affiliate program that allows you to earn commission on sales of Wix products and services that you refer from your website. This is available on both paid and free plans.
As you can see, there are several ways that you can make money with Wix. Which one is right for you will depend on the type of website that you have and the products or services that you want to sell.
