FAQ
Q: Should I switch from Shopify to Wix? Is Wix a better platform?
A: It depends on your business needs.
Wix is a great choice if you’re looking for a visually customizable, easy-to-manage platform with built-in features for eCommerce, SEO, and marketing. Unlike Shopify, Wix allows more freedom in design, and it doesn’t rely as heavily on paid apps or third-party plugins for core functionality. Read my full Wix review: pros, cons, design, and real user cases.
It’s ideal for small to mid-sized stores, creators, service-based businesses, or anyone who wants more design flexibility and simpler monthly costs.
Shopify still wins when it comes to large-scale inventory, advanced shipping logic, and deep app integrations. But if you’re not using all those features, switching to Wix can simplify your workflow and save you money.
Still unsure? Drop me a message and I’ll review your current store and help you decide what’s best.
