When it comes to website builders, there are two that always seem to be at the top of the list: Wix and Square Space. Both are popular choices for those looking to create a website without having to code it themselves, but which one is the better option?
To help you decide, we’ve put together a list of the pros and cons of each platform.
Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.
Wix Pros:
– Wix is free to use. You can create a website on Wix without spending a dime. – Wix is easy to use. Even if you’ve never created a website before, you’ll be able to do it with Wix with no problems.
– Wix has tons of templates. No matter what kind of website you want to create, you’ll find a template for it on Wix. – You can use Wix for eCommerce. If you want to sell products or services online, Wix can help you do that.
Wix Cons:
– Wix ads can be annoying. Unless you upgrade to a paid plan, your website will have ads on it. These can be distracting for your visitors and make your site look less professional. – You’re limited in what you can do with Wix. If you want to do something that’s not supported by the platform, you’re out of luck. – Wix can be slow. Because it’s such a popular platform, websites built on Wix can sometimes be slow to load.
This can frustrate visitors and hurt your search engine ranking. Square Space Pros:
– Square Space has beautiful templates. If you’re looking for a visually stunning website, Square Space is a good option. – Square Space is great for eCommerce. Like Wix, Square Space offers everything you need to sell products or services online. – Square Space is easy to use. You don’t need any coding skills to create a website with Square Space—it’s all drag and drop.
The verdict: both platforms have their pros and cons, but overall we believe that Wix is the better option.
