Wix Review
Wix, founded in 2006, addresses this very common problem and provides a simple click-and-apply interface for building websites. The Wix website builder provides an impressive array of photogenic and eye-catching themes that you can choose for your website. Editing a theme and adding new pictures, pages, and content is almost effortless. You don’t have to know anything about coding or creating websites in order to use Wix. By simple clicks, drags and drops within the Wix website builder, you can create a site that looks like you’ve hired a web pro. The Wix editor is available in eight languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Russian, Polish and Italian) but users can use Wix to create websites in any language they choose.
Wix is the perfect platform to develop an HTML5 website for people from any background and profession. It is very easy to use and can create a wow-factor site at the same time. You can easily add slides and animations that show case your website and make it look professional. The best part is, should you encounter any issues or just need general help about creating your website, Wix’s support team is available 24/7 to assist you!
Not only that, Wix’ HTML5 technology guarantees that your website will look great mobile to desktop. What’s more, there’s even a tool for creating a Facebook page to match the look and feel of your site. You can also choose to implement Instagram, chat, Tumblr, and contact forms into your website; simply choose your widgets/plugins from an open market.
