Wix is a WebTop publisher; it can be used to create all sorts of internet based content. Although it’s most commonly used to create websites it can also be used for blogs, widgets and also my space layouts. It has a number of my space templates to create high quality my space templates. All of this web content can then be uploaded anywhere you like.
Wix makes incorporating professional flash animations and publications easy without needing to learn any code. You don’t need to invest in any complicated or expensive applications; you can use wix to do absolutely everything. Wix also makes it easy to promote your site as all sites created are SEO friendly.
Wix was founded in September 2006, and is one of the oldest online WebTop publishing platforms still available. The company is based in New York and it has received a total of $8.5 million in funding from a number of different sources. Similar sites include Webnode, Weebly, and Sprout.
In March 2011, Wix raised $40 million from Insight Venture Partners, DAG ventures, Benchmark Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners and Mangrove Capital Partners. So far Wix has managed to receive $61 million in funding.
There are a number of online web design applications; however unlike many of these Wix also makes it possible to create a number of different forms of publications. All of these can contain flash based presentations and they are very easy to create. The websites are very professional looking and much better than the other systems on offer.
Wix is very easy to use and the design of the site is very clean and professional. Compared to many of the other similar sites, this one has a modern feel about it. It also has a number of tutorials and instructions which make creating your first site or online publication really easy. You don’t even need to know anything about creating websites, and you don’t need to learn any code. The website however is a little slow to use, but this shouldn’t be a problem once you are logged in.
Creating an account on Wix is very easy; you have to enter your email address, choose a username and enter a password. You will need to confirm your email address by following the instructions in the email that’s sent to you. After you have done this you will then be walked through the process of creating your account and building your first sites.
Wix is free; however they also have premium accounts where you can pay for additional features. You will sign up using a free account, and you are able to upgrade your account whenever you want to. If you don’t need any of these advanced features then you can continue using the site for free, the features on offer do change from time to time so it’s a good idea to check the website.
Wix is a fantastic site for anyone that wants to build flash websites without having to learn how to write websites from scratch. There’s no need to learn HTML or anything complicated, all you need to do is drag things around. The system is free, stable and very sophisticated. Even the wix website is made using wix, which goes to show just how professional the results are.

I love this site. The only issue I have with this site is the slow slow slow loading times. I rate this as one of the best sites, but I do dislike the fact that you have to pay to put google analytic on their site which is ridiculous as google analytic is free. Go figure!!!

Wow. What a F*d up site. I bought premium and built a fantastic looking site in about a week. HOWEVER, what good is a site if page loads take forever. Search the net and you will see how many complains there are from users unhappy about slow load times. I literally did everything I could to optimize my site, and it still ran unevenly. Parts of the page would load fast and others would take 10 or 15 secs. They should be embarrassed to offer such a poor product. Add insult to injury, WIX has absolutely no billing support. Just an email.
