Looking for a Website in Livingston Texas?

Looking for a website? We are going to be posting a few reasons why not to use free website builders from hosting companies.

Today we focus on Wix, Weebly & Squarespace.

Six reasons why you should not use WIX, Weebly or Squarespace for your website

1. It’s not good for branding. Lets face it, it just doesn’t look good. Its not a custom designed website that fits you…

2. Wix Websites Use out dated Flash Technology. Flash has been abandoned and will not work on most phones or new internet browsers …

3. People online might not find you. Websites such as these do not get google rankings like a custom website would. They do offer to sell you an extra service relating to SEO, but this usually doesn’t help much with search results. What is the use of having a website if we can’t be found by new customers?..

4. Your Website Will Load Slow. Each widget or box added to your site on builders such as Wix is just another script to load when page loads. The end result is a very slow website…

5. When your business outgrows Wix, you got nowhere to go. In most cases you can not just backup the website and change providers. These sites are built with plugins and widgets specific to Wix or Weebly. Don’t get stuck with something that you can not use anywhere else…

6. Wix Isn’t Free – It May Be More Expensive Than You Think. The average cost of removing branding and using advance features on wix will run you between $20-$100 a month. Add this to any other costs associated with your website. Having a custom made website only involves the cost of a domain (usually around $11 a year) and hosting (usually around $50 a year for a medium sized business) along with the cost of the design which usually goes around $300 for a basic website.

If you are looking for a website and you are currently using one of these services listed above, we will give you $50 off a new custom website design!
