Wix

Wix, which serves more than 220 million users, states that its main mission is to provide a platform that anyone can use to build their online presence. It boasts a library of 800+ professionally-designed templates divided into dozens of categories—you can simply pick the best one and use Wix's built-in drag-and-drop editor to customize it. 

Chris Priebe, founder of Zelt, tells us that his team used Wix to build their website and launched it in just one weekend. Zelt stayed with the platform for much longer than they initially thought they would, as it gave them everything they needed "a web presence, a blog that is easy to set up, an agile way of iterating copy and content."

Need a feature that Wix doesn't have? You can almost certainly find the right plugin on the Wix App Market, which has over 300 third-party apps to help you customize your webpage. 

Why we chose Wix: For beginners, Wix's Artificial Design Intelligence (ADI) feature enables you to build a professional website quickly. Plus, Wix has everything you need to build an online store—abandoned cart recovery, multi-currency support, and much more. 

Our experience: We tried the ADI feature and started with a standard template. Both were effortlessly customizable. It's just as easy to publish a new blog article as it is to create a new product page or build a portfolio.
