“Well a good web builder for portfolio is Wix cuz it has a lot like creative layout,AI tools, it is mobile friendly, good inventory, analytics,marketing,checkout,hosting,domain connection and all but for good E-commerce I will go with Shopify so check out the both of them and see”

“Wix has a known quirk where it sometimes overrides your meta title with the domain if the homepage title tag isn't set correctly in the SEO settings panel specifically, not just through JSON-LD. JSON-LD sitelinks name markup helps but Google still pulls the rendered title tag first.”

“Wix isn’t really the problem here, it’s more about how clearly your site is signaling its identity.”

“Wix is pricey, right? I ditched it for something way cheaper that still handles deep galleries and shops perfectly. You got this”

“Wix has its own site name field separate from your JSON-LD. Go to Site Settings, then SEO, scroll to the site name field and make sure it's your brand name, not blank. Wix sometimes overrides your manual schema with its own auto-generated version, so your JSON-LD might be getting ignored entirely.”

“Most websites you purchase from are shopify/wix templates or some sort of Wordpress template”

“To be honest, I wouldn't go back to paying $900+ for Wix unless you really loved everything about it. for your situation, I'd probably look at platforms like Pixpa or Weebly.”
Ginny-in-a-bottle · reddit ·
“Don't use wix. I use it for my website and it's terrible.”
SnipesCC · reddit ·
“You could Wix or Wordpress or whatever and have minimal code. Or you could go full code (React/NextJS) and host it somewhere.”
Jacen1618 · reddit ·
“Wix or Squarespace are the big ones that don't need you to know any coding”

“I’ve been working on custom websites for businesses that don’t necessarily want another WordPress/Wix/Squarespace template with a few colors changed.”

“Wix I would also strongly suggest you avoid using. It's a closed system platform, you cannot backup or host your WIX site elsewhere. If you picked that platform to use the site builder, please use something like WP instead.”

“I'm leaving wix once my hosting plan expires. It's garbage”

“The first option, "thank you" page, is probably more achievable with a service like Wix, though I've never tried. The second option is the technically correct way to do it, but requires a lot more code plumbing.”

“Wix is pretty closed and their support they have the wix studio academy and udemy tutorials.”

“Where can I go to get in-person help for building my website/using wix”
Vast_Internal9530 · reddit ·
“It was actually just a Wix site someone put together with a lot of family history on it. I'm sure some people still reference it for stories, but it became more like a book than an interactive site, since only the developer had access to edit on it.”

“I boycott Wix. And many of us are. We do have a moral compass.”

“I'm trying to reach Wix support about the one that went through but I've been waiting for close to an hour now. Thanks in advance”

“Wix and Squarespace will feel limiting once you want a portfolio + blog with any custom feel. Between Framer and WordPress — Framer's way faster to get looking sharp for a personal/freelancer site, and it's built for exactly this kind of clean portfolio + contact form setup.”

“For Wix specifically you'll probably still have to paste into their editor by hand while this is broken.”
henry-bauta · reddit ·
“Based on what you described, I would compare WordPress with WooCommerce before paying for Wix again. It can support nested portfolio pages for individual shows, dedicated book pages, reviews, and an online store without requiring HTML for ordinary updates.”
TyroneWeb30 · reddit ·
“Wix or Hostinger can build most of the site for you, and ChatGPT can help with the text, layout, and SEO. Just expect to tweak the AI-generated stuff a bit.”
Jealous-Aerie9193 · reddit ·
“I can give you a much more affordable option than spending another $900+ on Wix.”

“There's essentially zero Wix sites in search engine results and essentially zero SEO which is why I always through it was a free thing. My God.”
CupcakeSecure4094 · reddit ·
“I'm not advocating wix btw - it's pretty bad for building sites past a certain level, but most of them are in reality, for non-technical or experienced users. So my point is, if wix is working for you and the only reason you're thinking of moving is to try and reduce the \~$30 a month bill, you're probably going to regret that decision.”

“Wix ain't worth it, not even close.”

“It is also the most cost effective option to host compared with Wix, Shopify”

“Idk abt wix e commerce, Shopify is only 1 per month for the first 3 months, than it’s a huge deal after”

“I built my Wix website several years ago and I like the organization however it is super expensive. I had forgotten to turn off auto renew and it charged me 900 + bucks for three-year renewal which I freaked out about and got the money back.”

“Wix isn't your problem. Plenty of Grant accounts run on it fine.”

“Wix: right answer if the site has to do things. Bookings, payments, a store, review widgets, the app market covers almost anything, natively. Cost: editor learning curve and monthly price creep as you add apps.”
StevenGamma · reddit ·
“Wix works fine with Google Ads, but the low quality score and missing conversion tracking are likely causing the issue.First, connect GA4 through Wix to track button clicks (donations/signups).”
Brief-Company-8567 · reddit ·
“Wix is unlikely to be the reason the ads are not showing. I found the public site from your earlier post: the homepage already has a relevant title and description, a clear Empowering Voices heading, the charity number, course pages, other-support content and individual location pages.”
alarga74 · reddit ·
“Wix can work if the pages are fast, mobile-friendly, crawlable, and properly tracked. Changing the website platform will not repair an irrelevant keyword, ad, and landing-page combination.”
Hairy-Difficulty-411 · reddit ·
“Wix is not a good basis for a professional website. It isn't easy to set up conversion tracking in Wix.”

“Trying to decide whether to register my domain through Wix or GoDaddy. This is for a small website, so simplicity matters more than advanced features.”

“We use Wix and I am not sure whether this is a good choice to interact well with Google Ads.”

“I'm not familiar with all the tools on your list but from what I've used, a no-code ai website builder like Wix that covers the whole stack natively saves you a lot of time and headaches as your project grows”

“Wix, Framer, Squarespace and WordPress are on my list.”
Compniklete-ail-8334 · reddit ·
“Wix can be more open and gives you lots of control, but it is easier to mess up the layout if you are not careful. WordPress can go the furthest in what you can build, but it takes the most time to learn if you are not technical.”
