Q: Is WordPress better than Wix, and what sets them apart?
A: To avoid sparking a potentially divisive debate between WordPress and Wix enthusiasts, it’s prudent to acknowledge that each platform is crafted to cater to distinct user needs. If these needs aren’t met or if users lack the necessary skills, it might be wise to consider exploring an alternative website-building solution.
