Why Should You Not Use Wix?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 10:58 am

There are a number of reasons why you should not use Wix to build your website. First and foremost, Wix is a proprietary platform, which means that you do not own your website.

You are merely renting space from Wix, and as such, you are subject to their terms and conditions. If Wix decides to shut down its platform, or change its terms and conditions, you could lose your website completely.

PRO TIP: While Wix is a popular website builder, there are some drawbacks to using it. First, Wix sites are not as SEO friendly as they could be. This means that your site may have a harder time ranking in search engines, which could lead to less traffic. Second, Wix sites can be slower than other types of websites. This can be a problem if you are trying to run a website that relies on speed, such as an e-commerce site. Finally, Wix sites can be more expensive than other types of websites. This is because you need to pay for a premium plan to get access to all the features and tools that Wix offers.

Another reason to avoid Wix is that it is not a very flexible platform. You are limited in terms of what you can do with your website, and there are no options for customisation. This can be a major problem if you want to add new features to your website, or make changes to the existing ones.

Finally, Wix is not a very search engine friendly platform. This means that it will be harder for people to find your website in the search engines, and as such, you may get less traffic than you would on a more search engine friendly platform.

So, in conclusion, there are a number of reasons why you should avoid using Wix to build your website. If you want to own your website, have full control over it, and be able to customise it easily, then you should look for another platform.
