WordPress vs Wix: Which One Is Better?
|
Hey website friend, Last week we chatted about Squarespace, and now it's time for part 2 of my platform comparison series. This week I'm diving into Wix with my friend Alethea from Inspired Website Design! Here are my top takeaways from our Wix vs WordPress conversation π 1. User-Friendly Updates Wix shines at making websites manageable for business owners with its drag-and-drop interface. WordPress with a good page builder like Elementor offers similar ease when built thoughtfully β it's all about creating the right foundation for clients. π 2. SEO Built Right In Wix has a comprehensive SEO dashboard that walks you through optimization with a checklist. WordPress does this through powerful plugins like Yoast SEO and RankMath. π 3. Platform Misconceptions Wix has grown beyond its "simple DIY" reputation and can handle complex functionality. Similarly, WordPress isn't as complicated as people think β when built with the client in mind using page builders, it's surprisingly user-friendly. π 4. The Real Decision Factor Both platforms can create beautiful, functional websites. The most important factor isn't the platform itself, but finding a designer you connect with who will build your site with YOUR needs in mind. Listen now to hear why both Alethea and I believe the platform matters less than the person building your website and how they set you up for success. π€ WordPress vs Wix: Finding the Right Platform for Your Business [Ep 074]β β You've got this, P.S. Whether you choose WordPress, Squarespace, or Wix, the key is having a website that works around the clock for your business. Ready to explore what that could look like for you? Let's chat!β |

Hey Website Bestie, Let's talk about your about page β that tricky little corner of your website where potential clients decide if you're their perfect match. I've been having great conversations lately with corporate clients who want to seem approachable without oversharing their life stories. They ask: "How personal is too personal for my professional brand?" It's a balancing act! Your about page is likely one of your most visited pages (yes, really!), but it doesn't have to be a choice...
Hey Website Bestie, Is your website silently losing you clients? I had a wake-up call recently when a client tried to book a website audit with me. First, my booking system glitched and tried to charge him double. When I attempted to fix it manually, I messed up the time zone conversion. Thankfully, this determined client stuck with me through all the technical failures! But it got me thinking⦠how many potential clients encounter tech issues on YOUR website and simply click away instead of...
Hey website bestie, Have you been putting off updating your website because it feels too overwhelming? I was chatting with my client Jen recently, and she confessed she'd delayed her website redesign for years.

Redesigning your website can feel like renovating your house while you're still living in it. Where do you even begin? But here's the truth β...
