How to Use Wix Website Templates

Introduction

Wix is an easy-to-use website builder that lets you create your own website, blog, or store. With Wix's templates and drag-and-drop features, you can build a beautiful site in minutes. The best part? There are thousands of free Wix templates to choose from!

Start with a template

Wix offers a huge selection of templates, so you're sure to find one that matches your vision. The search function makes it easy to find a template by style, category, or keyword. You can also sort by industry and purpose, or browse based on designer or price.


Organize your content

The Wix editor allows you to organize your content using the drag-and-drop editor, which lets you easily and quickly move around individual elements on your page.

The text editor is another way to manage pages on Wix websites. It gives users a more detailed way of editing their text than the drag and drop editor does. You can also use it for adding images or video clips, as well as creating links between pages with relative ease.

The image editor allows for advanced photo editing controls that aren't available when working with templates in other web editors like [Pro Sites](https://www.prosites/) or [Weebly](https://www.weebly).

Edit text, images, and videos

  • When you're in the Wix editor, you can edit text, images, and videos.

  • To add new pages: Click “New” on the left side of your page then choose from five different page templates.

  • To add new sections: Click “Add Section” on the left side of your page then choose from six different section templates.

  • To add new blocks: Click “+ Block” on the right side of your screen then choose from four different block templates (such as menu blocks or header blocks).

  • To add new widgets: Click “+ Widget” on the right side of your screen and select a widget to install onto your website (such as social media buttons).

Customize the site design

You can customize your website design with Wix's navigation editor.

  • Navigate to Pages > Add New.

  • Click on the + icon at the top-right of your screen and select Navigation from the dropdown menu.

  • To add a new page, click on "Add New Page" in the upper left corner of this dialog box, give it a name, then choose whether you'd like to use an existing template or create something from scratch (i.e., starting from zero).


Add your own domain name or use a free subdomain name

When using Wix, you can use your own domain name or a free subdomain name. If you choose to use your own domain name, it must be pointed to a web hosting provider that supports the necessary technology (DNS) for the Wix website builder. You may also want to purchase an SSL certificate so that people can see their data is secure when they visit your site. If you decide not to use an SSL certificate, then there will be no indication that visitors are on an encrypted page.


You can also use a free subdomain as well as a free domain name through Wix's service called My Site Builder Plus if you wish - but this requires more work on your part since it requires installing WordPress on top of the existing Wix website builder platform before creating content pages and posts at all! Therefore we strongly recommend against doing this unless absolutely necessary because it will require many steps beyond just installing WordPress alone with only one installation step required instead!

Publish your website!

  • After you've selected your Wix website template and customized it, it's time to publish.

  • The first step is to click the Publish button in the top-right corner of your screen. This will take you to another page where you can enter your domain name and upload your files.

  • Entering your domain name is easy: type it into the box with "Domain" written above it, then click Continue when finished.

  • Uploading files may take some time depending on how many photos or videos are included on your site; this can be sped up by clicking "Preview" before starting so that only what's needed for previewing will be uploaded (you can always go back later if necessary). Once all of those steps are complete, wait for Wix's servers to process everything!

Wix offers you great templates to start with and powerful customization tools!

Wix offers you great templates to start with, and powerful customization tools. Your Wix site will have a professional look and feel, be easy for visitors to navigate, stay up-to-date with the latest trends in design, be mobile friendly (so people can access it from anywhere), be SEO friendly (meaning search engines can easily find it), and deliver a fast experience.

At the end of your free trial period, if you choose not to continue as a customer of Wix's paid plans—or if you decide that additional features aren't necessary for your project—you can simply delete your account without losing any of the content or pages on your site!
