What Is the Problem With Wix Website?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 9:54 pm

When it comes to website builders, Wix is one of the most popular options out there. It’s simple to use, has a wide range of features and templates, and is relatively affordable. So what’s the problem with Wix websites?

Well, there are a few potential issues that you should be aware of before you commit to using Wix to build your site.

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

Firstly, Wix is a closed platform, which means that once you build your site on their platform, you’re effectively locked in. You can’t export your content or move it to another platform without significant effort (and often loss of functionality).

PRO TIP: Wix websites are not as reliable as other website builders. They can be slow, and they may not work properly on all browsers. Additionally, Wix does not offer a lot of features and customization options.

Secondly, Wix sites are not always optimized for search engines. This can be a major problem if you’re relying on organic traffic to grow your business.

Finally, Wix sites can be quite slow and resource-intensive. This is due to the fact that they use a lot of JavaScript and Flash, which can bog down loading times.

So those are some of the potential problems with Wix websites. Overall, it’s a decent platform for small businesses or personal sites, but if you’re looking for something more robust or scalable, you might want to look elsewhere.
