What does hosting mean?
@@EnoI539 it means that Wix is hosting the website from their servers , not yours... for an exemple if you were to host the website , it would require your device's resources ^^
Very useful.Thanks
Hi. I am a bit still confused. If I make a site from wix, do I still need to buy a domain name from them or from someone else? Does the name that I chose, is mine and no one else can use it?
Also, If I chose to use word press later on, can I transfer from wix to word press? Thanks.
@@hervetenn3892 this is pretty late but you can buy a domain from any websites and then transfer it to wix, and also buy directly from wix. The answer to your other two questions is yes.
You manage to get a ton of info in a short video, but you keep it so organized that it's easy to follow! Thank you.
Thanks a lot from a medical guy who just launched five books and soon YT and has no idea how all this works. You techies are invaluable--subscribed
Well, Greg you did it again. Well arranged short and sharp brief on the comparison. I was really undecided after gone through both system. Thank you very much ,Greg. You are really spot on. Cheers! Maid!
Very well explained Greg, great appreciation for your continous education and inspiration, I will look into more videos you made on this very interesting topic, be well please and a massive thank you!
Thank you, Greg! So helpful and clear. I've already recommended you to others.
This is everything I wanted to know. Great content! Thanks
You have answered all my questions. Thank you for the transparency.
Greg Great tutorial - the only point I’d make is I’m moving my site from Wordpress to Wix to SAVE money.
I set up a Wordpress site as a complete newbie and ended up paying through the nose for Add ons like site backup apps, image re/sizing, themes woocommerce + poor assists with SEO and some other outgoes I can’t recall. For me the convenience and ease of use of Wix is clear even though I think I can see some Wordpress under cover in Wix I think.
Thank you so much Greg!
This was super helpful man:)
Thanks so much that is an eye opener
I love what am learning from you guys. Thankyou
I'm new to all this and currently getting content togethre for my WIX website. This video helped so much! Thanks a lot. I subscribed to your channel and I rarely subscribe to any :-)
Wow, thank you for the comment and for your support!! Welcome to the channel :) I appreciate it! I'm glad the video helped you get started with your website! If you have any questions along the way let me know!
Really help. Thank you so much for the good explanation 🙏
Hey Greg how r u ? Here comes the another awesome video thank you for the tutorial , stay home stay safe
Greg, that was a great video. This is coming from a newbie that is about to make a site for a friend. So many questions and you nailed all the questions I would have asked. And in a such clear, non-techie way. Thanks so much. I am now looking forward to starting.
Perfect! Glad it was helpful, and thank you for the comment. If you run into any other questions as you’re putting the site together just let me know.
@@GregGottfried I sure will. Much appreciated!😃
This was sooo helpful ... Thnks Greg!!
Hi Greg, I subscribed yesterday. I like your straightforwardness and also the quality of your advice! Do you have or recommend some content on strategies for online food deliver website.... advertising, getting traffic etc....(assuming the restaurant and website are running already) I know it is a broad subject though... So many content out there.. but it is hard to sort the wheat form the chaff sort of speak!
Great Job Greg! Nicely presented. Concise. Valuable. Thanks!
Thank you so much, Tim! I appreciate it! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. You're very welcome!
Great video, Greg, very helpful!
Great video! Answered all my questions, whereas other similar videos did not . Thanks!
really helpful, you convinced me to go for WIX !
A video such as this should be a the very beginning of the Wix website. It would have saved me endless hours of frustration and exasperation. I put together two websites and neither one was what I wanted. The editor IS NOT easy until you learn what you can and cannot do with it. My biggest issue is that you are limited to options only what Wix has available and what it THINKS you want. If your business is not among those options then you're in for a long haul.
Agreed.. Thanks for the comment though, and if you run into any questions as you're going forward let me know (I try to be in the comments everyday to reply). Good luck!
Hi Greg! Thanks for sharing helpful Wix tutorials here on RUclips 🙌 I'd just like to ask what may be the reason why the website appears to be blank sometimes? Like, the page has to be refreshed to load the content. It's kind of bothering me for quite some time now. Thanks and more power to your channel!
VERY VERY HELPFUL! Thanks Greg!
Thanks Greg. This was very comprehensive.
Great and helpful information. Thank you and God Bless You
thank you so much, cause I have no idea what I am doing. I just started my business and I just need a nice looking web page. Nothing fancy. Thank you. I am using wix.
Hey Greg! I must say I love your channel and the value you provide. I'm trying to get into POD business after watching your videos but for some reason I'm not able to get into merch by Amazon program I've tried with 4 different emails but I've been rejected every single time. Please guide me what should I do. And by the way I've followed each and every instruction you gave on your video on how to get accepted. Please reply
You gave us all a tremendous education, thank you so much!!!
Thanks Bryan, glad it was helpful! Let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you so much, awesome info 😍
Hi Greg, i am really enjoying the value of the content you are sharing. How would the rankings of an Australian website created on Wix perform in relation to SEO? Much Appreciated.
thatis a great video thanks, i have one question , you mentioned that wix can host a domain , does this affect the monthly payment for the paid plans ?
Hey Greg thanks for another great insight video...really helps in making decisions cheers! :)
Right on! Thanks for the comment and let me know if you have any questions!
Very useful information for the beginners creating their own website. Thanks Greg.
Thank you, I'm glad it was helpful!! You're very welcome!
Hey Greg, let me first say thank you for all the great content! I had a couple of questions. I left them on older posts but wanted to try something newer and it's about affiliate marketing. I am building an affiliate marketing site based off of the video you did on Wix affiliate marketing. ou mentioned in one video to shoot for 1000 words but the example you gave in the video wasn't nearly that much. Also, I would love to see more training on the affiliate sites and dealing with google adsence and seo. Also, a lot of people that I've seen over the years give updates on their income. I really appreciate that you don't put that out there but from someone who is using your teaching and taking the time to put into this it would be nice to get a good idea if you are actually making good money using your own teachings and not just with the t-shirts. Sorry for the length of this but thank you once again for all the very honest and clear teaching.
Hey Matt, thanks for the comment and great questions! Sorry for not getting back to your other comments yet, I try my best to stay on top of them everyday. Yes, you are absolutely correct, I recommend at least 1000 words per article. You can get away with 600+ but as a rule of thumb, I never go below 1000 anymore (they simply rank better on Google). The example in the video was definitely short, and I would have added in subheadings if I were to write a full length post and publish it. A good way to do this if you need to lengthen your post is to think of what the next 3 questions someone would be having when reading your article, and then make then into the next 3 sections of the article. I'll absolutely keep note to create more affiliate content, seo and adsense included. In regards to income, you are right I stopped sharing it a while ago because people were focusing on the income and entering the business with a money chasing mindset (which was setting them up for disaster). Just so you know, my income from print on demand and affiliate marketing combined qualifies for the 99th percentile of US incomes :) I hope that sheds some light and helps a bit for now!
@@GregGottfried Thanks Greg, I greatly appreciate the quick and lengthy reply and the help! Will be looking forward to seeing future videos.
Really helpful!
Great Tutorial! You always explain everything perfectly!!! I love you, Greg you are a legend!!! Oh and by the way since there is a quarantine, after my online classes im using my time to make designs and logos for my shops in Teespring and Merch By Amazon. Do coronavirus affect these sites, like they dont export hoodies or t shirts because of the coronavirus?
Thanks so much and that is exactly what I love to hear (that you are using this time to grow your offerings!). POD doesnt get affected nearly as bad as most businesses because the market is worldwide and the organic traffic to these sites is in the hundreds millions of visits per month.
So so informative and succinct! Thank you for this :)
Welcome! Thanks for the comment!
Excellent information, without unnecessary and unuseful talking
Great video and great information. Liked and subscribed. Planning on starting an online site/store in the immediate future and am gathering info at this point trying to make sure I make an informed decision. My time and patience are both in short supply and it is starting to sound like wix may be what I need to use. Thx again for your time and help for all of us noobs.
Glad it was helpful! Let me know if you have any questions as you start going forward, happy to help. Good luck!
@@GregGottfried I may have missed it but do any of the Wix premium plans include a professional email to match the domain name? Really trying to keep everything in one place and limit the need for outside sources.
Excellent Greg. Thanks for video.. Big thumbs up. Just signed up for wix from your link- the unlimited.
Thank you AnnMarie! Much appreciated 😊
Thanks Greg. It's so clear explanation
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment!
Another terrific video! Does Wix include SSL? Do they provide automatic backups in case a site goes down or gets hacked? With a Wordpress site you can move it to another host. With a Wix site are you forever locked into its platform and can never move it elsewhere?
Hi Greg, Thanks for all of your help! I am having a problem with my image sizes. I like full width images on top of my website. I have added strips and then filled them in with my photo. However, some of them work out fine and some of them cut off heads or other parts of the people in the pictures. Is there a way to optimize the size of my photo either before I bring it into WIX or after I bring it in? Like there is the size optimizer for the smart phone but is there one for the desktop? A suggested size before I upload? Really appreciate your help! Ann
Thanks man...great helpful info. One question I wanted to know...is it cheaper to get your custom domain name and connect it to your wix account? I'm asking because I thought that when you upgrade to a premium account you can get a custom domain name through WIX...would that not be the most efficient way to get a custom domain?
Great video! Thank you!
You bet! Thanks for the comment!
Awesome. Stay safe! Thx.
Thanks Rick! I hope you and your family stay healthy and safe!
Omg this was so helpful, thank you!
No problem, glad it was helpful. Thanks for the comment!
Great RUclips post Greg, not sure where your niche is so my post is more of a question do you sell your services for putting a WIX site together? I realize its drag and drop but someone who does it day in and day out has the ability to help with the design even though its based off of templets …..there is a look I want and someone whos in it can get there quicker than I can
Very good information Greg, I have a question which premium package do I need to be able to add Adsense to my website? I am about to create my first wix website but I am not sure which package allows Adsense, I would really appreciate it if you reply, thanks.
Thank you ,this video was really helpful
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment Tracy!
Very informative Greg thank you very much
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
Hi, I have really enjoyed your videos. Thank you for your help and great content. I recently made a website using WIX and I am having trouble with the image for the post. The image looks normal in the post, but on the post list on the home screen it is super zoomed in. I cannot figure out how to fix it. Would you be able to help? Thank you.
Thank u so much helpful
You're welcome, glad it helped!
grateful for the content subbed bro
Thank you for the support! Glad you are liking the content 👍🏼
Very helpful and clear!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks Gail!
this video is really helpful and well explained , thanks grey, is there anyway i could get the code file on wix after building
Good Video! Question.....What happens if someone signs up for premium, have it running for a few months, but wants to go back to the 'free' option. Is that possible? Or too late?
legendary video. love it
Thank you!
Amazing, thank you.
Glad you liked it, thanks Craig!
I am going to use wordpress for my you tube i let you know how i am doing next week project
Hello! I watched your wix videos and tutorials and learned many. Thanks so much Greg. I just have a problem. When I click a blog post which is very low of the page, then I click back in browser, Wix doesn't remember the old page scroll position. It oddly goes up the page automatically when you click back in browser. Why :( How do i fix it?
Hi Greg, great info but I noticed you mentioned integrating a domain name to Wix if one was purchased from another site, etc but you haven't mentioned if you can in fact integrate a website you make using Wix and host it elsewhere instead of hosting it on Wix. Is this possible or does Wix basically "OWN YOU" (as in, if you build on their site you can ONLY use their site to publish and host etc)?... Hope you can and will reply to this .. Thank you :)
Great video thanks!!
Glad you like it! Thank you for watching 😊
very helpful thx
Happy to help👍🏼
Excellent review. One question though, if I change a domain name can there be a CNAME placed in DNS to redirect web traffic going to the old domain name to the new name?
Greg, you suggest to have a new domain name for each niche. What about having an overall all domain like “cool stuff” with the niche subjects under that like “cool camping tents”, “cool hiking Shoes”, etc. then blog under each subcategory??? One domain name to rule them all. Lol
Another great question Will! If you go with a general domain, Google will have a hard time deciding what to rank you for. By having a specific niche domain, Google knows what your website is about, and can easily decide what to rank your posts for. With that said, I've seen general domains done before but it will certainly be harder. A solution I would recommend if you are wanting to do a general domain is: start with a specific niche domain site that we know will work predictably, and then after that gets going, then try a general one to see if it catches. I hope that helps!
Greg, did you know that you are treasure? Love ❤️ from Iraq 🇮🇶
Hi Greg. I haven’t looked at your videos yet. I’m building an archaeology index and want it to be sortable, by city or date or site category etc. I’ve been told the only spreadsheet that can be embedded and sort is Excel. Is that right?
great video!
Thank you, I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Another great tutorial! How come u didn't mention about the premade wix website that some of us bought from you? That was very helpful!
Hey thanks for the comment! I didn't think to include it in this video but yes that is extremely helpful to have for affiliate marketing!
How can you sell templates on wix?
thanks a lot
You're welcome, thank you for the comment!
Thank you for the great advice. What are the differences between Wix and Wealthy Affiliate? Which one is better?
Thanks for the comment! They are different things :) WIX is a website builder, and the affiliate program you are talking about sounds like it's just an affiliate program (not a website builder). WIX is not just for affiliate marketing :)
I really want to get into affiliate marketing. What do you feel about click funnels? Do you ever use them, instead of building websites?
Great info! I’m thinking about creating a website to support my channel and sell merch. This definitely helps. New subscriber!
Thank you so much, Aaron! I appreciate that! Welcome to the channel! I hope you find everything you need in the videos, but if you have any questions along the way creating your website just let me know :)
@@GregGottfried Refreshing to see someone with a channel your size actually responding to folks! I appreciate that! My goal is to creat a site to hosts blogs relating to each video I post with a link to RUclips. I also want to have a page for merch, and maybe an announcement page or something else. Plan to link to Patreon as well once I get that started as well. How do you feel about Wix/ Printful combination? I’m new to all of this so also don’t want to get in over my head, or jump the gun too early while building my community. Thanks!
for teespring , do you need to get a different trust score for each storefront or once you get it for 1 store all your storefronts will get the marketing benefits ?
Amazing!!!
Great explanation, new subscriber my friend, 🙏🏿
Hello from Greece! Congrats on your channel... My one last concern before beginning my wix affiliate marketing site is what if i do everything right and after one year that i begin seeing returns my content becomes out of date? Can this happen? What then?... Thnx for the great content by the way!
Excellent question! Just make sure that you are choosing to write about topics and products that are not trendy or prone to get outdated. Picking staple products and niches that aren't hyped up by "this years release" (like iPhones for example) will ensure your content stays relevant. I hope that helps!
Hi Greg, Can I look at your blog on "My Camera and Recording Equipment" & "My Most Recommended Books" as you have created it at Amazon? I appreciate the most, thanks.
Great video, thanks. When you say you build a free site and then "upgrade to a premium plan" does that mean another monthly charge for each new site, or can I just add that (previously) free site into my regular paid plan? Thanks...
Excellent question! It will add a new plan to your billing. Essentially, it's about $15/mo per site. I hope that helps clarify!
Very informative but how much will a outside developer cost?
Hi Greg. Very nice video. I have a question - If I go with the unlimited plan, how many websites can I design in a year? Is there a capped number?
Hey Devas, great question! The plans are per website actually. The Unlimited is what I personally use, and it just means that your single website has unlimited features (to make it load faster, store more memory, etc.).
Hi Greg. Thank you for a great tutorial. I would like to know if you have privacy policies on your affiliate websites and if so, would you advise us to DIY it (you know, from a downloadable template) or would you advise us to get a lawyer? I mean, what risks are we facing if at the start, we do not have a privacy policy yet? Thanks in advance Greg!
Question: how do i add a product for a specific category? For example I want to add a tennis ball in a tennis category only!!
hi, when starting to create content is it better to create pages rather than posts for the "Education" in wix/wp or does it not matter?
Great video, thanks Greg!
I've built my 1st ever website, using Wix, and I see the option to switch from ADI to Editor, but the warning that once I switch I can't go back to ADI. Would you recommend switching to the full Editor, or stay on ADI?
FYI, I'm no web developer but I'm very competent and a quick learner, so I would say I'm well past the basics and know enough to be dangerous! ;P
Hey thanks for asking, that's a great question! I would 100% switch to the Editor. It's pretty much just as easy as the ADI to use, but you have more options if you want them. It doesn't mean you have to start getting really deep into customizations, but it allows you to change things very minor and very major if you wanted to. There is always a "undo" button, and you can even revert to the last published version of the site if you got into trouble changing something. I hope that helps!
Thanks for the video ! Do you need to have a legit company to use Wix payment gateway or Stripe for your Wix online store to accept online payments ?
Thanks in advance 🙏🏻
Thanks for making this video Greg. Here's today's silly question: If I buy a premium website and domain name from Wix, but 12 months later decide to change the domain host to GoDaddy or someone else, can Wix hold me to ransom in any respect and cause something to happen that results in me losing that website, and all of its contents? Anything appropriate anything you can mention is highly appreciated. Cheers.
Thanks for the context. Just a question, Is it possible to add ads - your ads - in wix (lets assume the premium one)?
Great question! Yes you can!
What di u recommend for real estate website for beginners and small business?
I’ve created my website and the one question I had with the free version was whether I could have people pay through that. I now have the answer, so thank you.
Brilliant. Thanks for the comment, if you have any other questions just let me know.
Are you able to pay others through your website?
Nice video
Thanks!
Does it matter if I choose to host on aws? Will that cause any issues?
Can I build a website on wix and host it elsewhere. What is the procedure for doing that.
Thank you Greg. This is very helpful. if I start with the unlimited plan, can I switch later on to a business basic plan? And vice versa? Can I switch from business plan to an unlimited one?
Hey great question! Yes, you can switch between plans in the future. The plans are paid for for the year up front so I would recommend starting with the lower plan, and upgrading (paying the difference in price) down the road if you need to. I don't know if you get a refund when you switch to a lower plan. I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried thanks for your prompt reply. So if I pay in advance for the year for the lower plan, can I switch easily mid year for a business basic plan? Thanks again.
Hey Greg what is the best website builder on the market today
Great question! Wix or WordPress are the only 2 I recommend.
Great, concise video! Can I build a website using WIX templates and host it with Bluehost? I already have hosting.
Great question. No unfortunately. Wix is an all in one package so you have to host on their hosting. That would be a great feature though!
I'm looking for the see more or expand feature on Wix and have not been able to find it. Do you have resources?
