Shashank Sharma takes the feature-rich site builder for a test drive.
Shashank Sharma
Wix

Wix is a giant in the website builder industry. Browse its site and clues to its success appear right away. While some services give you only a few templates, Wix has more than 500. Its built-in image editor has 40 Instagram-style filters. The blog supports 26 languages. The App Market has more than 200 widgets to enhance your site and integrate third-party sites and services.

Beginners can sample much of this for free, but experts can go much further, with features like Wix Code, enabling them to manage database collections, generate dynamic pages and custom forms, use their own JavaScript, access APIs and more.

It’s not perfect, though. The templates aren’t responsive in the usual sense, although the effect is very similar (Wix generates a separate mobile version of the site). Some features, like form building, come in the form of apps that require payment to get their full functionality. But nonetheless, it is a powerful and comprehensive service with a lot to offer all users.
