Why we love WIX Studio

Choosing the right website platform is just as important as the build itself.

With over 2 decades of experience within the industry, we've had extensive experience with a multitude of Content Management Systems (CMS) - WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace - the list goes on!

In fact, we've formed partnerships with many of these platforms to ensure we are always at the cutting edge of new developments and can consistently review features, knowledge and capabilities to pass on to our network.

Which brings us to one of our most commonly asked questions...

"Do you have a preferred website platform?"

The answer is yes... **but not always!

No project or requirement is the same, and we adapt to everyone's unique needs (and resources).

That being said, there are a few things to consider:

Looking for a powerful e-commerce and POS solution for thousands of inventory items?

Shopify is your friend.

Already have an existing Squarespace website and just need some fresh content and advice?

We can certainly help give your site a boost!

But, if you are looking for the best all-around, high-performing digital solution for a new business, build, or project, then our "go-to" CMS is Wix Studio.

Why?

Wix Studio strikes the perfect balance between creative freedom, powerful functionality, and ease of use, for both us and our clients. We're not fans of limitations or overly complex (and costly) solutions, and Wix Studio lets us build fully custom, responsive websites without compromising quality and performance.

One thing WIX does well is improve and develop! We've been blown away by the features and capabilities now available - in fact, our top-performing websites are all set up on WIX!

With advanced Design, SEO and performance tools, Wix is flexible enough to bring our ideas to life and streamlined enough to keep things simple post-launch. Another advantage, clients love that they can easily manage their site going forward without needing a developer on speed dial.

Here's a quick summary of the best bits!

▶︎ FULLY RESPONSIVE AND CUSTOMISABLE DESIGN

Your website should look great everywhere - on desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones.

With responsive design, every element, including images, text and layouts, adapts seamlessly to fit any screen. It’s all about delivering a smooth, consistent experience, no matter how your audience connects.

We can use advanced design tools, developer mode and custom code to create a site that isn't limited by templates and restrictions and can be fluid with each device.

▶︎ ADVANCED SEO TOOLS

Wix Studio gives us everything we need to help your site climb the Google ranks.

From custom meta tags and structured data to SEO patterns and robots.txt control, we’ve got the tools (and the know-how) to build a tailored SEO strategy that works behind the scenes while you focus on your business.

▶︎ BUILT-IN BUSINESS TOOLS

Wix Studio comes loaded with ready-to-go business solutions you can plug in, customise, and start using in minutes. NO 3rd party plugins to maintain!

From CRM and email marketing to bookings, analytics, and industry-specific apps for events, restaurants, and hotels - it’s everything you need to run your business online, all in one place.

▶︎ MARKETING TOOLS

Track, tweak, and grow with powerful marketing integrations like Google Analytics & Facebook Pixel.

Boost engagement and keep customers coming back with targeted email campaigns and custom discount codes tailored to your products or services.

▶︎ BUILT IN ADVANCED SECURITY

All Wix websites are compliant with the highest international security standards. With automatic updates, they always stay secure.

Secure HTTPS connections and PCI-compliant checkouts, ensure your visitors’ data is protected every step of the way.

▶︎ LIGHTNING FAST PERFORMANCE

According to Google Chrome reports, the Wix platform leads the industry in site performance.

With ongoing performance optimisation at the platform level, your site immediately benefits from every update that’s released. Wix’s globally distributed data centres and 200+ CDN nodes ensure best-in-class site performance regardless of visitors’ location, network or device.

Automatically enhanced media delivery—including image conversion, cropping, and resizing— ensures faster page-load speeds.

▶︎ SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE & HOSTING

Multi-cloud hosting powered by AWS, Google Cloud, and Fastly ensures your business stays up even if one provider goes down. (and NO 3rd party hosting!)

The platform handles over 4.5 billion daily requests and millions of transactions.

Infrastructure is engineered to autoscale under high demand—no need for pay for extra servers or bandwidth. Wix has a 99.98% uptime service level objective.

▶︎ CLIENT HANDOVER

And, last (but certainly not least!), the client handover and onboard is simple, user-friendly, and a purpose-built content editor means you can change any content on your site, without worrying about the format! 1:1 Training sessions are included, and ongoing support is all part of the package.

We could go on about why we love WIX, but honestly, we'll let the finished product talk for itself.
