One downside: Unlike Squarespace or Weebly, Wix doesn't let you switch templates once you've chosen one. In a nice touch, the template preview shows you how your site will look on a smartphone screen, too. The templates each have a full demo, so you can get a feel for the theme before you begin editing. Many are free, though some business choices require an e-commerce-level subscription. In all, Wix offers hundreds of template choices, more than Squarespace or Weebly. For our Wix test site, we picked the Blog category, which offers more than 70 beautiful template options. For instance, there's a Restaurant choice with subcategories that include bar, café, and catering. There are nearly 20 top-level site types, each with several subcategories. A less-expensive exception is Gator, which starts at $3.84 per month and runs to just $9.22 per month for its e-commerce plan.Īfter creating an account, you search for a general site type-business, designer, event, blog, and so on-and then choose whether you want to use a site template or have Wix automatically create a site for you using Artificial Design Intelligence (ADI). Weebly's top business plans are $44, $40, and $26 per month, respectively. Weebly has a free option like Wix, but has an early-grade Personal plan for only $6 per month. Duda's paid plans start at $14 per month, while Squarespace's options begin at $12 per month. For a full rundown of account types, see Wix's premium account grid. Finally, there are the Enterprise-level plans that require a bespoke quote from a Wix representative (they start at $500 per month). If you want a shopping cart and other money-making features, business and e-commerce plans cost between $23 and $49 per month. These range from the $14-per-month Combo account (3GB of storage and 2GB of monthly data transfers) to the full, $39-per-month VIP plan (35GB of storage, a domain name, unlimited monthly data transfers, a professional logo, and priority support). On the other hand, if you want an ad-free site with a custom URL or e-commerce options you must upgrade to a paid account.
