It is very functional at its core and fairly intuitive. In fact, Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal from the hit YouTube show “Good Mythical Morning” have worked with Wix.com on a series of videos promoting the company.  In the videos, they show everyone how easy it is to use the website building platform.

Designers can create without limits

Designers are given advanced capabilities with the Wix editor. They can build robust websites, customize web applications, build rich content, add custom forms or even change site behavior.

Coding is not needed

Speed and security are guaranteed

All Wix websites are hosted on their own servers, so the servers are optimized for these websites. This means that the websites perform at average rates for speed. The sites stay secure and they rarely, if ever, “go down.” There are professionals who make sure that the website is both fast and secure.

Wix is an all-in-one solution. If there is any problem or concern, it is easy to track down the root cause because everything is on Wix. When something goes wrong, getting in touch with customer support is easy via different channels such as phone, email, or Knowledge Base.
