    THE 25th MISTAKE - "Wishing" you had a web site but NEVER acting upon your desire to build a site or your business..
    THE 26th MISTAKE - Telling all your friends and acquaintances about you ingenious business idea but NEVER actually building or acting upon it.
    The best way to kill your dreams is to start blabbing your ideas to anyone who will listen.
    Feeding yourself dopamine through talking about false dreams can give you the same emotional enjoyment as actually pursuing your dreams thus, why you hear so many people talking about things they will never actually achieve. (great TED talks about this topic)
    GREAT INFO. Thank You!

    Here's a quicklist for ease of reference:
    01 - No mobile version
    02 - Mobile header too big
    03 - No call to action
    04 - No information about you
    05 - No map
    06 - No email subscription
    07 - No NAP (name, address, phone)
    08 - Broken links
    09 - Slow websites (reduce image quality)
    10 - Poor navigation header
    11 - Too many fonts
    12 - No social networks
    13 - No/mistitled logo png
    14 - No blog
    15 - No internal pages
    16 - No google analytics
    17 - Low quality pixelated pictures
    18 - Having ads on your website
    19 - Bad domain name
    20 - Unreadable fonts
    21 - No brand description
    22 - Having music playing
    23 - Not using exit-intent popups
    24 - Not seo-ing your website
    Some really good info in there. Particularly the blog and internal links. However, "Number 7 is going to surprise you" is a really cheap approach. Your content is better than that.

      *Mistake number one: Don't use outdated link and use this link for FREE signup **acortar.link/WixSite** Number two will be that you should not go for free website despite it is completely free because it looks awful with wix logos and ads running on your website. Premium plan is cheap with only 8$ month, plus they have sales every week.*

    Thank you for teaching me. QUESTION: i have a domain already and had an old website that got deleted. How do I keep other big companies from steeling the people that are looking for me. Like if someone is searching for my company, A Place For Mom website pulls up and shows my info then the consumer contacts them and I would owe A Place For Mom a fee if I work with the consumer that was looking for me? Can I fix this situation with a new WIX site?

    How do you set it up for exit intent? I don't see the trigger setting to allow for this as opposed to popping up within a certain number of seconds. I don't want it popping up while they are reading the content of the page...only when they move the cursor to navigate off the page. If you can explain I would be really grateful. Thanks
