Whenever someone asks me advice on building a website, I just say "Wix", unless they are willing to spend 10,000$ or more paying a quality developer to do a custom and probably unnecessary build.
- huula 10y agoThere are more alternatives out there and some of them are cool too.
- Angostura 10y agoI always used to say Weebly - and I've helped quite a few friends and family build little brochure sites. The big change with a new version a couple of years ago made less enthusiastic, though I haven't looked at Wix yet.
- drusenko 10y agoHey there, I'd love to hear a bit more about your negative experience a couple years ago and how we could make things better. Didn't see an email in your profile -- could you email me at david@weebly.com? Would really appreciate your feedback!
- someonenice 10y agoI wanted create / migrate my sites on Weebly but they lack the power to organize the url structure. For example - I want urls like - mysite.tld/europe/germany/somepage So I can also create pages like mysite.tld/europe/germany/index mysite.tld/europe/index etc. Currently they only support one level in url making it difficult to migrate my sites.
- mbesto 10y agoI usually turn them to Weebly and SquareSpace and adamantly turn them away from Wix. I think some of this has changed recently, but most Wix sites unnecessarily hijack browser functions, have time wasting page transitions, the SEO is terrible, and social sharing links always are buggy. Financially speaking, as a company they simply just out-spend everyone on marketing/sales to compete in the market, with very little product innovation.
