Well perhaps the real question might be: ‘Can I afford not to have a website in this digital era?’ There has never been a better or more important time to invest in a website for you or your business.

A properly made website is one of the best investments any company can make for its future (take a look at the stats: nearly 90% of consumers today believe that businesses with a website are more credible than those that only have a social media profile). It makes you look professional, you establish your place in the industry, your website develops presence over time and with SEO done right you can attract more customers through the enormous numbers of people who search through Google daily.

As with all of these builders – Wix, Squarespace, Weebly etc they start off free, but you quickly realise that to get any further with them you need to start paying. Then as you become more familiar with what you want your website to do, you encounter restrictions and limitations that suddenly make it harder to achieve what you want or it starts costing a lot more than you thought originally.

The set templates and creation interface may or may not fit what you want: in Wix the website designs are not always mobile friendly and will need quite a bit of (frustrating) work to get them looking nice on mobile – and user experience on mobile is very important! Oh and say goodbye to getting decent SEO, as things have moved forward rapidly in that area and Wix is unfortunately behind the game in that department.
