Our review
Wix is a drag-and-drop website builder with many templates. You can start free with Wix branding; paid plans remove branding and add a custom domain. Ecommerce is available for online stores. The editor is flexible but migrating to another platform later can be difficult because content is tied to Wix. Sites can get slow if overloaded with elements. Basic SEO tools are included.
We recommend Wix when you want the easiest start and are okay with potential lock-in. For design-focused sites, Squarespace is stronger. For ecommerce-first, Shopify is the dedicated choice.
