4 Wix Website Examples That Prove They Work For Any Business

Wix websites allow business owners to create and design their own websites without any coding experience.

It’s one of the reasons it’s so popular. Plus, they offer a huge variety of templates, design tools, and features that can help small businesses generate professional-looking websites quickly and easily.

Again, with no website experience.

However, it's not as easy as it looks. As many advantages that Wix has, there are some disadvantages as well. Many that you won't realize until after you've committed time and money.

This is usually when business owners come to us. At High Tide Creative, our expert Wix website designers can help solve problems such as customizing your website's templates, changing codes, compressing large high-quality images for master website speed, and more.

Knowing all of that, do you still want to create a Wix website?

Let’s talk about it some more.

How Much Does a Wix Website Cost?

Wix offers several pricing plans for its website-building platform, which vary in terms of the features and resources they provide.

Some of the main factors that affect the cost of a Wix website include the type of plan you choose. You can purchase Wix websites at these four levels:

Free: $0, but with Wix branding and limitations, no custom domain, and other limited functionalities. We don't recommend this for business owners who want to make a full-time living with their brand.
Website Plans: These range from $16 to $45 per month and include connecting a custom domain, additional storage, and access to more design tools and features. However, customization is limited, so specific, more advanced, or specialized tools and integrations may require the purchase of additional apps or services. This can increase the overall cost of your website.
Business & E-commerce Plans: Includes things like online stores and product inventory management. These cost between $27-$59 per month. We recommend this plan to start.
Enterprise Plans: These Wix websites are built for large-scale businesses. You have to request a call with Wix to get their pricing.

It's always good to check the Wix website for their latest pricing and features options before deciding on a plan.
