Using the easy interface I loaded one called Justin Smith Photography that looked clean and minimal. Apparently, this template choice is permanent. No switching themes as in WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>An 8-page Welcome! tour show showed me the functions of the vertical navigation bar on the left and the horizontal nav bar on the top right.<\/p>\n<p>The vertical bar is similar to the WordPress navigation, except Wix has pop up menus instead of full pages for each action.<\/p>\n<p>Also, there are only five options \u2013 Pages, Design, Add, Settings and App Market \u2013 which is both good and bad. Less cluttered, but a little hard to find tools.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wix-works-for-me\/hi-add-images\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4022\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4022\" src=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/hi-add-images.png\" alt=\"hi add images wix, blogsitestudio.com\" width=\"640\" height=\"406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/hi-add-images.png 640w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/hi-add-images-200x127.png 200w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/hi-add-images-500x317.png 500w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/hi-add-images-600x381.png 600w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/hi-add-images-150x95.png 150w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/hi-add-images-300x190.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nMy first task was to upload images. Facing a grid-lined dashboard page, I clicked Add&gt;Gallery&gt;Slideshow at which point an image placeholder appeared, ready to size. Clicking on the slideshow icon popped up a menu where I chose Organize Images. Wix is so friendly it says \u201cHi\u201d to start adding images. Clicking on Add Images, I got what looks like the WordPress Media Manager with a Upload Images button.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wix-works-for-me\/add-image\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4020\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4020\" src=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/add-image.png\" alt=\"add image wix, blogsitestudio.com\" width=\"640\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/add-image.png 640w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/add-image-200x113.png 200w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/add-image-500x284.png 500w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/add-image-600x340.png 600w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/add-image-150x85.png 150w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/add-image-300x170.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nLoading 10 images that are under 300 kb took about one minute. Once the pictures are loaded, I chose the ones I\u2019ll use for the gallery on this particular page. I sized the box on the page and using pop up menus, I made text changes to the text fields around it.<\/p>\n<p>When I hit Save, Wix asked me to name the site and fill in my information. At that point it takes a few moments to launch the HTML5 Editor. It also started offering me upgrades, the first of many.<\/p>\n<p>At this point I got confused about how to get at my images. There is no apparent Media Library icon on the interface and I realized I\u2019m not in WordPressland anymore.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wix-works-for-me\/organize-images-wix\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4029\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4029\" src=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/organize-images-wix.png\" alt=\"organize images wix, blogsitestudio.com\" width=\"640\" height=\"410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/organize-images-wix.png 640w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/organize-images-wix-200x128.png 200w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/organize-images-wix-500x320.png 500w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/organize-images-wix-600x384.png 600w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/organize-images-wix-150x96.png 150w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/organize-images-wix-300x192.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Unlike WordPress, Wix offers only one way to get to the images \u2013 through the page they are placed on. Clicking on the page\u2019s slideshow icon brings up a pop-up menu to click Organize Images. That took me to another pop-up menu with all the photos chosen for that page. Click on Add Images and I see the whole media library. I have yet to find the elusive Edit Image button to allow me to crop images.<\/p>\n<h2>Usability<\/h2>\n<p>Working with the Wix elements is very intuitive, and incorporates aspects of DreamWeaver, QuarkXPress and Headway. Just click and drag the boxes. Edit text with a pop-up editor. Preview. What could be easier?<\/p>\n<p>I decide to organize the pages by date, to create a visual progression of our trip. The kids and hubby can add their pics later to give a fuller view of our days. That means creating 14 new pages.<\/p>\n<p>In the Pages pop out menu, set the type of page \u2013 in this case, Gallery \u2013 and page name. These new pages are automatically added to the menu bar. With a total of 16 pages, I have to move the site title up and stretch out the navigation box. I haven\u2019t figured out how to change the page width yet.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wix-works-for-me\/kii-wix\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4023\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4023\" src=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/KII-wix.png\" alt=\"KII wix, blogsitestudio.com\" width=\"640\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/KII-wix.png 640w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/KII-wix-200x117.png 200w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/KII-wix-500x293.png 500w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/KII-wix-600x352.png 600w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/KII-wix-150x87.png 150w, https:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/KII-wix-300x175.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nHere\u2019s how it looked after about four hours, give or take \u00a0image processing time. Having the hang of it, I became addicted to placing images and spent a whole Friday evening uploading a hundred more.<\/p>\n<h2>Settings<\/h2>\n<p>Free Settings include SEO, Mobile and Social Media. But if you want to see your traffic Stats or add a Flavicon, you must upgrade.<\/p>\n<p>The SEO comes with a cute Wizard to analyze the site, but I found no place to connect with Google Analytics to check it against.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wix-works-for-me\/app-market\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4024\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4024\" src=\"http:\/\/blogsitestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/app-market-1024x736.png\" alt=\"wix app market, blogsitestudio.com\" width=\"691\" height=\"497\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2>Apps Market<\/h2>\n<p>This is like the plugin uploader in WordPress and it segments the app types, both premium and free. There are about 60+ free apps, many of which are from Google.<\/p>\n<h2>The Deal<\/h2>\n<p>My URL is <a href=\"http:\/\/marikane.wix.com\/ireland\" rel=\"nofollow\">marikane.wix.com\/ireland<\/a>. I didn\u2019t realize my name would be there. And, I didn\u2019t realize Wix would have their ads above and below my content. So if I want to upgrade to connect a domain name, I\u2019d pay $4.08 per month. (Where they got the .08 is anyone\u2019s guess.)<\/p>\n<p>To connect a domain name as well as ditching the Wix ads, I\u2019d pay $8.25 per month, which includes $125 worth of ad vouchers for Facebook and Adwords.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, the most popular plan is called Unlimited where for $12.42 per month I can get unlimited bandwidth, 10 gb of storage, $250 of ad vouchers and no ads!<\/p>\n<p>Here is the <a title=\"wix upgrades\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wix.com\/upgrade\/website\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Wix Upgrades Page<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Wix packs a lot of tools in a easy-to-navigate environment. And, like WordPress.com, gives users the option to upgrade at each stage of development.<\/p>\n<p>So, who is Wix good for? Just about anyone. As in, anyone who doesn\u2019t want to make complex decisions about the architecture of their site, anyone who never wants to see code, anyone willing to pay as they upgrade, and anyone too cheap to care about the Wix ads \u2013 like me.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think? Who likes Wix over WordPress? And, why?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting a Wix site is the fastest process I\u2019ve ever seen. No need to fill in contact information.
