Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:06 am

As anyone who has ever used a web-based drag-and-drop editor knows, they can be painfully slow. Wix is no exception.

In fact, Wix Editor is one of the slowest editors around. Here are some possible explanations for why this might be the case:

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.

1. Wix is a resource-intensive platform

Wix is a resource-intensive platform. This means that it requires a lot of resources (memory, processing power, etc.)

to run properly. As a result, it can slow down your computer, especially if you’re using an older or less powerful computer.

2. Wix Editor is built on Flash

Wix Editor is built on Flash, which is a notoriously resource-hungry technology. Flash-based applications are known for being slow and resource-intensive. So it’s no surprise that Wix Editor is slow.

PRO TIP: If you are experiencing slow loading times when using the Wix Editor, there are a few possible reasons why. First, check your internet connection to make sure you have a strong signal. If you are still having trouble, try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies. If that doesn’t work, try using a different browser. Finally, if none of these solutions work, contact Wix support for help.

3. Wix Editor has a lot of features

Wix Editor has a lot of features, which can make it slow to load and use. All those features require resources to run, which can add up and make the editor slow.

Conclusion:

There are many possible explanations for why Wix Editor runs so slow. However, the most likely explanation is that Wix is a resource-intensive platform that is built on Flash, and has a lot of features that can make it slow to use.
